I don't get 'An Island in the Darkness'. I'm a huge Tony Banks fan and own all his solo work.
Pretty much all my favorite Genesis songs are the one's that Tony wrote.
But "An Island In the Darkness" does absolutely nothing for me. What am I missing? Sure, it's long. It's somewhat "proggy", but there's nothing interesting about it. IMHO.
It's a grower. I have problems with Another murder of a day, bit AIITD ist really a great "late career" track Tony did. People who like this one probably also like One man's fool a lot.
