Genesis is one of the four most pretentious bands ever. (The other three are Yes, ELP and Pink Floyd.)

Oh, come on! I agree with you about ELP and Yes, but what about the Moody Blues? Procol Harum? King Crimson? And the new heroes of "You don't get it because you're not smart enough" art-rock, Radiohead?

Maybe Genesis was pretentious back in the Peter Gabriel-Steve Hackett days, but there are few LPs less pretentious than Invisible Touch.
