Did Genesis represent the classic definition of a progressive rock band? Were they the most British? What is The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway about? Just some of the questions as Popoff and a crack team of analysts examine the early-days records. Each album is dissected track by track as well as album covers, production and lyrical narratives.
Did Genesis represent the best and most classic definition of a progressive rock band? Were they the most British? What kind of personalities and sensibilities did we get out of Peter Gabriel, Phil Collins, Steve Hackett, Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford and where did all these 12-string guitars come from? What's a "Giant Hogweed" and who is "Harold the Barrel?" Finally, what the heck is The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway about, anyway?!
These are some of the questions grappled with, as Martin Popoff assembles a crack team of art rock analysts to examine the early-days records of this legendary band, namely:
From Genesis to RevelationTrespass
Nursery CrymeFoxtrot
Selling England by the PoundThe Lamb Lies Down on Broadway
A Trick of the Tail and finally...Wind & Wuthering

Indeed, each of the above is dissected track by track with side-trips into the album covers, the productions, lyrical narratives and individual performances of note. It is the hope of the author that by the end of this fantastical excursion, the reader will have discovered multiple new layers to this intensely cerebral band, prompting a reacquaintance and subsequent richness of experience when confronted with this-let's face it-often daunting catalogue.

At approximately 7900 (with over 7000 appearing in his books), Martin has unofficially written more record reviews than anybody in the history of music writing across all genres. Additionally, Martin has penned 75 books on hard rock, heavy metal, classic rock and record collecting. He was Editor in Chief of the now retired Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles, Canada's foremost heavy metal publication in print for fourteen years, and has also contributed to Revolver, Guitar World, Goldmine, Record Collector, bravewords.com, lollipop.com and hardradio.com. Martin has been a regular contractor to Banger Films, having worked on the award-winning documentary Rush: Beyond the Lighted Stage, the eleven-episode Metal Evolution, and the ten-episode Rock Icons, both for VH1 Classic. Martin currently resides in Toronto and can be reached through martinp@inforamp.net or martinpopoff.com.
