| Genesis Ranked
I'm sure this list has been done to death, but since I've listened to all 15 of these albums, I figured I might as well rank them based on the level of enjoyment I receive from each album. | | 1 |  | Genesis
The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
This album is comprised of 23 songs and not only are they all good, but they're all
distintive and yet still fit together. The imagery produced by the lyrics adds to the
experience as well. A perfect album. | | 2 |  | Genesis
Selling England By The Pound
This album contains Genesis' best songs, but I feel "More Fool Me" is a skip-able
track, which is why this album doesn't take the top spot for me. | | 3 |  | Genesis
Foxtrot
Another album with some of their best songs, but again, this contains a skip-able
track in "Time Table". | | 4 |  | Genesis
A Trick Of The Tail
There isn't a bad song on this album, but it can be a bit slower than I'd like
sometimes. However, this contains a great opener in "Dance On A Volcano" and a
great closer in "Los Endos". This album also has a certain atmosphere that's pretty
unique. | | 5 |  | Genesis
Wind & Wuthering
Similar to the preceding album, but with a skip-able pop track in "Your Own Special
Way". | | 6 |  | Genesis
Trespass
The most underrated Genesis album, probably because it's slower and softer than
many would like. But I enjoy every song on this album and it also contains my
favorite Genesis track in "The Knife", which may have been one of the first
Progressive Metal songs. | | 7 |  | Genesis
Nursery Cryme
"The Musical Box", "The Return of The Giant Hogweed", and "The Fountain of
Salmacis" are three of Genesis' best songs, but the rest of the album doesn't come
close. "For Absent Friends" and "Seven Stones" are enjoyable songs, but the other
two are skip-able. | | 8 |  | Genesis
...And Then There Were Three...
This was proclaimed as Genesis' worst album by Genesis themselves, but I enjoy it
quite a bit. It has kind of an awkward direction, as it's sound is caught in the middle
between Progressive Rock and Synth Pop, and there aren't any standout songs, but I
just feel it's a very solid album. | | 9 |  | Genesis
Abacab
This is where they really start to go downhill for me, but I feel this album has some
interesting, quirky songs in "Dodo Lurker" and "Keep It Dark". | | 10 |  | Genesis
Invisible Touch
Even though this album is known for its pop hits, the rest of the album is pretty
interesting. "The Brazilian" is one of my favorites, while "Domino" and "Tonight
Tonight Tonight" provide some progressive elements. | | 11 |  | Genesis
Duke
"Duke Travels" is one of their best songs and "Behind The Lines" is a very good
opener, but this album doesn't do much for me beyond that. Sorry Patrick Bateman. | | 12 |  | Genesis
Genesis
I enjoy both parts of "Home By The Sea", as well as "Mama", but this album is boring
beyond that. | | 13 |  | Genesis
From Genesis To Revelation
This is before Genesis found their calling, so you'll only get a bunch of standard pop
rock songs, but some of them can be pretty cute. | | 14 | | Genesis
We Can't Dance
"Fading Lights" is a great song, but the rest of this album is mainly standard pop. | | 15 |  | Genesis
Calling All Stations
This album sucks. | |

08.07.12 | Top 3 is correct but 7 is far too low IMO. | ChickenOrBeef
08.07.12 | @JamieTwort
Keep in mind that I gave at least a 4/5 to the top seven albums. So I think they're all fantastic albums. Starting with #8 is
where the quality goes down a level. | JamieTwort
08.07.12 | 1 - 7 all rule for sure. | macadoolahicky
08.07.12 | 15 is 1 you whore | macadoolahicky
08.07.12 | And the answer is chicken. Always chicken | Jethro42
08.07.12 | Pretty much agree with you. Duke is far too low though.
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 5, 11, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15
6 and 7 are interchangeable to me. | NightProwler
08.07.12 | Supper's Ready is still one of the greatest things ever | Yazz_Flute
08.07.12 | I kind of like ABACAB | omnipanzer
08.07.12 | Jethro
Sputnik Genesis authority. | Jethro42
08.07.12 | mhhh it sounds less pretentious than my old title ''Sputniks prog authority'', so i can endorse it =] | EverythingEvil2113
08.07.12 | 7 could be a little higher but this is still pretty close to what I'd have. | RooseveltsGhost
08.07.12 | brb gonna listen to Lamb |
