Lima Regional Semi-Final 1: Genesis v. Renaissance - Progressive Rock Music Forum

Rebirth.

Genesis as they have more classic albums though I love Renaissance too.

Genesis of course!

Even though I like Renaissance a lot, I couldn't imagine not voting for Genesis in this poll.

I suspect the playing field here is heavily tilted towards Genesis, but I have voted for Renaissance, and here is why:

Renaissance must be one of the least irritating bands on this Planet. At the same time I can't think of a single Genesis album that doesn't bother me in some way. Their older albums feel too lengthy. I find their 1980s albums mildly boring. The Invisible Touch, strangely, would be my favorite Genesis album, but the all-pervading drum machine imparts a faint "cheesy" odor to it Evil Smile

.

Everyone knows what Ms. Haslam singing is like; no need to expound any further. At the same time PG vocals is not something I would like to hear, if I can help it; not sure why, though. Phil Collins is more agreeable, but his overall showmanship style feels "too cute" at times Wacko

I feel the exact opposite. While I dig the occasional musical outburst from them, I start crawling the walls whenever Annie opens her mouth. I find that extremely irritating.

I, too, find Renaissance irritating, irritatingly dull that is! Genesis gets my vote here, and very easily too!

Always felt Genesis a bit overrated since I first visited the forum, never was a fan of Gabriel's works and don't appreciate his singing style. Perhaps with an exception made for TLLDOB, I don't feel me keen on their music, tbh till the nineties I was kinda keen on them as I used to listen quite a bit to some of their 'LPs' (ATOTT, ATTWT and lately The Lamb), but I didn't know almost nothing of progressive rock at that time compared to what I know today, with the help of PA obviously

On the other hand I DO connect emotionally with the instrumental parts of Renaissance, more today than yesterday.
