Review: “Sooner or later, every progressive-rock band has to do its double-LP concept/opera/extraganza, and for Gabriel’s Genesis, it was The Lamb. The plotline, a surreal odyssey, tracks a character named Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid through a phantasmagoria of urban squalor and subterranean ghoulies. The title songs ranks with Genesis’s most majestic moments, and there are some nicely creepy set pieces. But the filler stretches on and on” – Jon Pareles, Blender magazine (10/07), pp. 118-9.
