PETER GABRIEL 3 [AKA: MELT]

Just when you think Peter's going in a certain direction, he puts on the brake and starts running in another. He leaves the great style he built over his first two albums and just came back with something remarkable. This album is as great as everyone says. World music is an obvious influence. This is the first of his albums to feature this. My favorites here are "Intruder", "No Self-Control", "Family Snapshot", and "Biko". The last on that list is sometimes my favorite song of his. It gives me chills every time. Every song here is amazing though. Definitely a masterpiece.
