Didn't know what to expect from this but he definitely can make some jams. Nothing crazily stood out to me but definitely enjoyed it on my ride in to Annapolis.
Pop. Rock. Un poco aburrido.
I ALREADY RATED THIS YOU IDIOTS
Stupendous. 5 stars.
suprisingly good artsy pog pop, didnt expect much when I started listening but the songs are consistently good. Enjoyable, 4 stars
I like Talking Heads too Peter
An ok album - not his best, not his worst.
Not Peter Gabriel's best material in my opinion. In fact, I rated PG1 5 stars and one of his Genesis albums 4 stars earlier on. PG3 seems to be a bit too artsy (and too edgy) for its own good. There are some good ideas, but the whole thing just doesn't quite come together well. I've heard quite good covers of Games Without Frontiers and Biko in completely different styles though.
3.5
this album really signifies a clear midway point between the early Genesis works of prog geinus in Selling England by the Pound and Foxtrot, and the later Gabriel/Collins pop hits. We have the misty, reverb-heavy drums of \"In The Air Tonight\", while still having structures and chord progressions reminiscent of Gabriel's earlier works.
Never was super into PG, but a few good songs.
Pretty good
I've gone through the entire Genesis library (90% garbage) Phil Collins library (90% low hanging fruit) Mike and the Mechanics (surprisingly good) and Peter Gabriel. The latter of which is really, the best. I had no idea what a genius he was. "So" is a near perfect album. Biko, I don't Remember, and Games Without Frontiers are bangers.
I like Peter Gabriel and I guess I have generally positive feelings about gated reverb on drums but I was disappointed by this one. I gave PG1:Car 5 stars a couple of months ago and was looking forward to hearing more from him. But I found this offering a bit dull and droning, no Salisbury Hill or Sledgehammer to elevate it past middle marks.
meh
Gabriel solo feels far more enjoyable than Gabriel in Genesis. Much like his first solo album, Gabriel tends to try a range of different styles and genres which showcases his musical ability but doesn't always lead to a cohesive listen. There is a bleakness to the mood and themes, however. And Through the Wire is a catchy rock number - you sense Gabriel could make an album of strong numbers just like this with ease - and Games Without Frontiers is a weirdly radio unfriendly popular hit which is unsettling and abrasive. An interesting, intelligent and idiosyncratic album.
хмммм не знаю..
Peter Fuckin Gabriel, man 10/10
Decent music. I like Peter Gabriel's style, but none of these songs stood out for me in particular I'd say. Intruder was sufficiently creepy though, what a way to start an album.
с каждым альбомом всё понятнее. надо потом весь Дженесис/Питера проверить
