We criticize CAS for the fades out but it was already the case in WCD.

I think in one of the last full moon i/o videos he said he will take 6 months off after the tour until spring and then carry on with new music. So it makes both sense. It may happen, but it may also happen that peter has now other ideas.
I doubt about it. Personally, I prefer to see Peter once again on tour... it was a relatively short tour to compare with the previous one.

It's dark and very strong despite the "fucking" abrupt fade-out. I have some reserve about the bridge in the middle (i'm not convinced with Bank's effects on keyboards). A solid 14.

I definetely prefer the original version.
-
It's an excellent track, especially the live version with the complex bass line by Mike and a very inspired Tony on keybords (14).

First listen of the new album this morning. It's not really good. The guitar solos aren't very inspired (always the same chord descents). Some melody ideas not exploited. I stand by my critical judgment: Steve's last interesting album was At The Edge of The Light.

I remember Abacab single edit played on national radio here in Britain at the time of its release, but never since.
I rarely hear Genesis on the radio here. Occasionally various hit singles will feature on nostalgia 'greatest hits' type stations - IT, FYFM, LoC or TIOA. BBC 6 Music occasionally plays album tracks, most often Guy Garvey of Elbow who has a very good Sunday afternoon show. As mentioned earlier in this thread he's known for quite often playing the Seconds Out version of Carpet Crawlers, in fact he's so devoted to it he refers to it as 'Carpet Crawl' as per the original cover. But he's also played Entangled and Ripples. Other presenters on the same channel have played DWTMK and FoF.
Abacab still gets regular airplay on classic rock-oriented US and Canadian radio stations.

Couldn't agree more. Lack of structure and flow in the arrangement again make it a hard and unfulfilling listen.
So far I'm not really convinced by the 3 tracks on the album. It's even worse than the last albums. What a mess!

Latest track to be released.....Circo Inferno

The monolithic drum sound is a little bit repetitive for me. But it's a powerful song overall.

Ok thanks Christian!

Unfortunately, the book is sold out everywhere. Do you have any idea if a reprint is planned?
-
Yes definitely a classic new track! The voice is perfect... too bad that he wouldn't perform in France.
-
Honestly, yes, but it's subjective. Mama comes close behind (and objectively, in terms of musical arrangement, it's stronger). Then, That's All comes third.
The song part of Home By The Sea never felt that strong to me, I prefer by far the instrumental part.
From what I saw on Youtube, Home By the Sea seemed the weakest point of the setlist on the last tour to me, except for the lightning. Wish they would have chosen something else.
I disagree. On the last tour, Phil was struggling a bit on HBTS, but Mike has never played better: an aggressive, very prog sound with a precise rhythmic work.

While there were some really bad Genesis album covers, I think it's a stretch to say they never had a good album cover (see A Trick Of The Tail & Wind & Wuthering). As far as the Yes album covers go, the first word that comes to my mind is repetitive...
I lIke a lot The Lamb cover (very cinematic).

The live version is awesome with Daryl on lead!
-
One of his best album: very melodic
-
We knew this song since a while... anyway...

For new tracks in the attics, i’m sure that Peter keeps them for the next album… but there are plenty of old stuff. So, we´ll see what happened.
