5 stars The obvious sequel to their previous efforts, considering the success and the hard work surrounding the creation of a new record. The record stays treu to its roots, to its musical background and to their homeland. Again, the five piece, organize and creates a complex palette of sounds that goes from great to magnificent, and in some point, the double vocals of Peter and Phil join to alter the senses and increase the emotion in it. In here thera aren't "key" or ultra-long songs, beacuse the whole record IS a key moment, is a whole pattern, that actually led the idea to the next record... the last "true" Genesis album. Anyway, with this record the band created a 3th masterpiece in a row, a vey rare consistency in any era, perhaps, that's why they end up doing more comercial music after the departure of the original members, who knows. In any case, we must enjoy and pay tribute to another great album of the 70's era that should be "time-less"
