And ughh, I'm tempted to vote for Yes just because I hate Phil Collins, but I haven't heard either album enough to judge properly.

Holy CRAP this is a tough call. Can I add draw as an option? If so then it would be

Yes 5
Genesis 1
Draw 1

But since I have to pick I'll go with Yes. There was a lot more originality there and the fact that the album is 3 songs all longer than 10 minutes yet my interest is held the entire time has to count for something.

Yes 6
Genesis 1

We should really try to get like an album tournament or something going.

Hating a band or not even giving them a chance because one member has a notoriously awful solo career is stupid.

When Phil first joined Genesis he was just the drummer/background singer. And damn good in both categories. Even when he took over as lead vocalist (which wasn't until the 7th album), Banks and Rutherford were still the primary songwriters and thus the true spiritual leaders of the band.

Phil's solo stuff does indeed suck but that's because he doesn't have much talent as a stand alone songwriter, he needs Banks and Rutherford to collaborate with.

Doesn't make him a hack though, he's just not a songwriter, but he is one of the most underrated drummers in rock music. I like his vocals too. He doesn't have the range that Peter did but he can still deliver something really powerful when he wants to.

For people like Violent & Funky I definitely encourage giving this band a chance, most of their material is not like Phil's solo stuff at all, especially the 70s stuff.

Phil's solo career can be safely avoided. Other than that I don't get why people hate him so much. This guy has contributed to some of the best music I've ever heard. Doing annoying theme songs for Disney movies isn't gonna change that. So I was pretty bummed to hear he can't drum anymore. I was kinda enthusiastic over a possible Genesis reunion with Gabriel and Hackett.

Even voting against an album you HAVEN'T heard?

When that happens, my method is NOT voting.

I also hate them because I had the Invisible Touch album embedded into my skull by a mental dyslexic welshman I had the misfortune of being stuck with for several months.

Invisible Touch is universially agreed upon by Genesis fans to be one of the worst things they ever did. My big issue with it is that it doesn't sound like Genesis so much as a Phil solo album.
