I know my rock history and ive never been a fan of Genesis in any shape or form, or of any of the solo stuff or derivative groups including Peter Gabriel. Never liked stuff like Nursery Crime (possibly one of the worst album covers ever) or Lamb Lies Down on Broadway either. As for U2, their 1980s output is pompous rubbish. For a few albums from Achtung Baby onwards they started to make better music, much more dance oriented and thats the period I prefer.
