Resolutely reflective throughout, this 1978 release finds Genesis populating its songs with a broad range of characters. Among the more memorable ones are the fast-talking record exec on \"Down and Out\" (a song that could be construed as a veiled swipe at the departed Hackett) and the larger-than-life cattle-driving cowpuncher on the synth-soaked \"Ballad of Big.\" Although the songs on this record are more concise than Genesis' earlier, conceptual work, the band still retains the gift of capturing moods.
