The Waiting Room by Genesis

Artist Biography For Genesis

Genesis Formed In 1967 In Godalming Surrey United Kingdom And Was One Of The Most Popular Progressive Rock Bands In The 1970s 1980s And 1990s. During The 1970s Peter Gabriel Was The Lead Singer Until His Departure When Drummer Phil Collins Stepped Up To The Mic And Replaced Him. Starting As An Amalgam Of Two Bands Formed By Schoolboys Attending Charterhouse School In Godalming England The Original Lineup Consisted Of Peter Gabriel Anthony Phillips Tony Banks Mike Rutherford And Chris Stewart Though Stewart Was Soon Replaced As Drummer By John Silver And Then John Mayhew. By The End Of 1970 Phillips And Mayhew Had Left The Band With Collins Joining As Drummer And By Early 1971 Guitarist Steve Hackett Had Filled The Gap Left By Phillips. The Lineup Of Gabriel Banks Hackett Rutherford And Collins Remained In Place Until Gabriel's Departure In 1975. During The Period Of 1970-1975 The Band Produced Some Of The Most Widely-Acclaimed Albums Of The Progressive Rock Era Including "Nursery Cryme" "Foxtrot" featuring The Side-Long Epic "Supper's Ready" And The Seminal Album "Selling England By The Pound" Which Generated Genesis' First Foray Into The Charts With "I Know What I Like In Your Wardrobe ". This Lineup Culminated With The Band's Magnum Opus "The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway" In 1974. Following The Tour Promoting The Album Frontman Peter Gabriel Left The Group In Mid 1975. Genesis Decided To Continue On As A Four-Piece Producing Two Albums "A Trick Of The Tail" And "Wind & Wuthering" Which Found The Band Proving To Themselves And To The World That They Could Move On After Gabriel's Departure. Collins Stepped Up To Fill The Role Of Lead Vocalist After Countless Auditions For A New Singer Proved Fruitless By The Completion Of Recording For "A Trick Of The Tail". Hackett Quietly Departed After The "Wind & Wuthering" Tour In 1977 Feeling That His Creative Input For The Band Was Being Repressed. In 1978 Tony Banks And Mike Rutherford Contributed Music To A British Movie Called "The Shout" Based On A Short Story By Robert Graves Directed By Jerzy Skomilowski And Produced By Jeremy Thomas.

Within The Chaos That Rael Encounters With The 32 Doors He Meets A Woman “Lilywhite Lilith ” In Which Guides Him To What He Believes Will Be The Light. Rael Is Deceived However Because He Is Left In Darkness And Hears A Terrifying Noise Approaching. Rael's Wait In Fear Is Represented By The Waiting Room Which Is The Record's Most Obscure Track. The Noise Of The Creature Approaching Is Developed Tremendously With Enough Bizzare Musical Sounds To Make The Flaming Lips' Creativity Pale In Comparison. Developing Into A Somewhat Usual Instrumental The Waiting Room Is The Segue Into Musical Masterpiece Anyway. Beginning Harmlessly The Piano Builds To A Foreboding And Terrifying Level As Rael Throws A Rock At His Unknown Target Which Is Enough To Destroy The Cave Entirely. Now Cornered With Nowhere To Go Rael Faces Death Once Again. Gabriel Personifies Death In His Instance And Refers To It As “The Supernatural Anaesthetist.” Rael Finds Him To Be A Fine And Decent Person Who Left Nothing But A Memorable Appearance In This Short Encounter.
