Genesis Survivor 2022 - Results & Discussion
« on: September 06, 2022, 01:05:40 PM »
In celebration of Genesis' 55th Anniversary, I've decided to bring back the Genesis Survivor after ten years away! Whew, has it really been that long?! :lol

As we go through each album, I will update their respective survivor results as they are finished. I will run two album survivors concurrently at any given time, and each round will run for two days, so be sure to check the forum at least every other day to vote!

Each of the band's main 15 albums will be represented, and then Consolation Rounds for all the Third Place songs in the album survivors (5th and 6th for The Lamb). The top two in each of the 15 albums will advance to the Finals (top four for The Lamb), and the top three in the Consolation will also advance to the Finals, for a total of 35 songs in the Finals!

This time I've decided to forgo the B-Sides, Non-Album songs, and bonus tracks, just to streamline the survivor a bit more and not drag it out a bit with songs that most fans won't be familiar with.

In order to expedite the Survivor a bit (so it doesn't take a whole year), I'm probably going to start off running 4 or 5 albums concurrently. By my calculations, doing 4 albums concurrently will take 39 rounds, or 78 days, or just over 11 weeks/almost three months. After that, the longest part will be the Consolation Rounds (15 total for 16 songs), and the Finals (34 total for 35 songs), which would take up 14 weeks, or 2.5 months (if done as two-day rounds each).

Is running four album survivors at once a bit hectic? Would you all be cool with that and not find it confusing, or should we take it nice a slow and do my usual 2 (which would almost double the length of time for the main album survivors from 11 weeks to nearly 20). I'd like to run more than 2 albums at a time, but I don't want it to be confusing for everyone participating. At any rate, each round update will happen every two days as usual, barring any unfortunate circumstances or if I forget to update.

Also, during the Consolation and Finals rounds, I'll probably also run a Studio Albums Survivor, and a Live Albums Survivor as well, just to fill in the time a bit more. I will also not be doing any tie-breakers unless it is to determine the Consolation/Final songs on any given album. Hopefully if there are a good number of voters participating, there might not be any ties.

Four albums at once? Give me a challenge.  ;) :lol

You might wanna reconsider doing the 80s Genesis stuff, though. I don't think there are that many votes to contribute to the polls after Wind and wuthering.

Yeah my interest in them wanes off after Duke, I'll be focusing on the 70s stuff.

No way, the 80's stuff is my favorite. I'm going to be useless on FGTR though as I've never heard it.

Going to have to find a way to listen to the first album, but I’m totally fine with doing multiple albums.  I’m very familiar with the rest of the catalog.

Cool!  I don't know the first couple albums or the last one, but this'll be nice.

I may run something with Fates Warning at the same time, but I don't think it'll detract.

Thanks for the replies guys! I'm looking forward to starting this one up. I'll be posting up the first rounds for the first four albums later tonight. As usual, they will be TWO-DAY rounds.

Another note I forgot to bring up - with TLLDOB, I will do multi-vote/multi-song elimination rounds to start, and when we get to about half of the album's songs, we'll taper down to one vote per person/one song out per round. I'm not sure if I'll start with voting for 4 songs or 5 in the first round yet, but it'll be around there.

And as stated before, there will NOT be any tie-breakers UNLESS it is to determine any songs going to Consolation or Finals.

Trespass' Final Round's Results:
Stagnation 9 (90%)
The Knife 1 (10%)
Total Members Voted: 10

01. The Knife
02. Stagnation
03. White Mountain
04. Looking For Someone
05. Dusk
06. Visions Of Angels

For comparison, these were the results from a decade back:
Quote
1. The Knife
2. Looking For Someone
3. Stagnation
4. Visions Of Angels
5. White Mountain
6. Dusk

Other than "The Knife", every song got shuffled around! Did not expect that but given how some fans feel about this album, it doesn't surprise me too much.

Foxtrot's Final Round's Results:
Watcher Of The Skies 9 (90%)
Supper's Ready 1 (10%)
Total Members Voted: 10

01. Supper's Ready
02. Watcher Of The Skies
03. Can-Utility And The Coastliners
04. Get'Em Out By Friday
05. Time Table
06. Horizons

 And here are the 2012 Survivor results:
Quote
1. Supper's Ready
2. Watcher Of The Skies
3. Can-Utility And The Coastliners
4. Get'Em Out By Friday
5. Time Table
6. Horizons

Unlike Trespass, these results ended up being exactly the same, which isn't at all surprising to me.

Looks like "Seven Stones" fared a bit better this time, but "Hogweed" wasn't so lucky, as it goes to Consolation Rounds this time.

4. I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)
5. The Battle Of Epping Forest
6. After The Ordeal
7. More Fool Me
8. Aisle Of Plenty

Very similar results again, with just 4th and 5th places swapped!

A Trick Of The Tail's Final Round's Results:
Dance On A Volcano 6 (50%)
Squonk 6 (50%)
Total Members Voted: 12

01. Dance On A Volcano
       Squonk
03. Entangled
04. Mad Man Moon
05. A Trick Of The Tail
06. Ripples...
07. Robbery, Assault And Battery
08. Los Endos

Well, it ended in a tie but both go to the Finals anyway, so no matter. And from 2012, those results for comparison:

Quote
1. Dance On A Volcano
2. Entangled
3. Ripples...
4. Mad Man Moon
5. A Trick Of The Tail
6. Los Endos
7. Squonk
8. Robbery, Assault And Battery

Looks like "Squonk" did a lot better for itself this time around, going from 7th to tied for 1st! Meanwhile, both "Los Endos" and "Ripples..." fared a bit worse. Only DOAV, MMM, and the title track retained their positions!

And so we move forward with the first rounds of ATTWT and Duke! We've passed the halfway point of the band’s discography!

Wind & Wuthering's Final Round's Results:
Eleventh Earl Of Mar 10 (83.3%)
One For The Vine 2 (16.7%)
Total Members Voted: 12

01. One For The Vine
02. Eleventh Earl Of Mar
03. Blood On The Rooftops
04. ...In That Quiet Earth
05. Afterglow
06. Unquiet Slumbers For The Sleepers...
07. All In A Mouse's Night
08. Your Own Special Way
09. Wot Gorilla?

OFTV takes first place but both it and EEOM go to the Finals. Here's the results from 2012 for comparison:

Quote
1. One For The Vine
2. Eleventh Earl Of Mar
3. Blood On The Rooftops
4. Afterglow
5. ...In That Quiet Earth
6. All In A Mouse's Night
7. Unquiet Slumber For The Sleepers...
8. Wot Gorilla?
9. Your Own Special Way


The Top three remained the same, 4th and 5th swapped places, and 6th and 7th places swapped, as did the bottom two. Seems fairly consistent!

The final round for The Lamb is up, as are the continuing rounds for ATTWT and Duke! The first rounds for Abacab and the self-titled have also gone up, so we are moving ahead at full speed!

Barring any major ties/tie-breakers, we will begin the Consolation Rounds in a little over a month, which will run for about a month itself! Then the Finals should be on track to begin in mid-December!

Still super salty about Los Endos coming in last on A Trick of the Tail.  Should've been top 3!

We're in the home stretch now with just 2 more studio album survivors to start this week. The Consolation Rounds should begin in a few weeks and if things go well, this will be wrapped up by mid-February! Thanks again to everyone who has been participating so far!

Are you planning to run polls for any of the b-sides?

Are you planning to run polls for any of the b-sides?

Each of the band's main 15 albums will be represented, and then Consolation Rounds for all the Third Place songs in the album survivors (5th and 6th for The Lamb). The top two in each of the 15 albums will advance to the Finals (top four for The Lamb), and the top three in the Consolation will also advance to the Finals, for a total of 35 songs in the Finals!

This time I've decided to forgo the B-Sides, Non-Album songs, and bonus tracks, just to streamline the survivor a bit more and not drag it out a bit with songs that most fans won't be familiar with.

Considering how few fans would be voting in them, it felt inconsequential to have any B-Sides in the survivor this year. No one seemed to be missing them when I first proposed running this again and I don't think that feeling has changed. I know there are some pretty good B-Sides/Non-Album Tracks, but when I ran this survivor last, I had 36 B-Sides split across three sets (Gabriel-Era, Collins-Era, and Wilson-Era), but I remember only a handful of people voted in those rounds compared to the main albums.

Ah, gotcha. Definitely some B-sides I would rank above many of the album tracks, but then also a bunch I’m sure none of us are too passionate about.

Consolation's Final Round's Results:
The Return Of The Giant Hogweed 8 (61.5%)

01. Dancing With The Moonlit Knight

04. Duchess
05. Second Home By The Sea
06. Blood On The Rooftops

10. Keep It Daek
11. Counting Out Time
      The Brazilian
13. Can-Utility And The Coastliners
14. White Mountain
15. Calling All Stations
16. Fireside Song

Quite a bit different from the 2012 results, considering some of the songs from last time didn't make it to Consolation at all this time around, but it seems DWTMK will always reign supreme as the best Consolation song!

Quote
1. Dancing With The Moonlit Knight
2. Can-Utility And The Coastliners
3. The Fountain Of Salmacis
4. The Chamber Of 32 Doors
5. The Carpet Crawlers
6. Blood On The Rooftops
7. Ripples...
8. Stagnation
    Heathaze
10. Undertow
11. Second Home By The Sea
12. The Conqueror
13. No Son Of Mine
14. Me And Sarah Jane
15. Tonight, Tonight, Tonight
      Calling All Stations

The Studio Albums's Final Round's Results:
Selling England By The Pound 7 (53.8%)
Duke 6 (46.2%)
Total Members Voted: 13

01. Duke
02. Selling England By The Pound
03. A Trick Of The Tail
04. Foxtrot
05. Wind And Wuthering
06. Nursery Cryme
07. The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
08. Genesis
09. Abacab
10. Invisible Touch
11. ...And Then There Were Three...
12. We Can't Dance
13. Trespass
14. ...Calling All Stations...
15. From Genesis To Revelation

By *one* vote, SEBTP took second place, making Duke the best studio album as voted by you all! Definitely a surprising top five, IMO, with more albums without Peter than with!

The Live Albums's Final Round's Results:
Seconds Out 3 (30%)
Three Sides Live 7 (70%)
Total Members Voted: 10

01. Seconds Out
02. Three Sides Live
03. The Way We Walk
04. Live Over Europe 2007
05. Live

And *not* surprisingly, Seconds Out takes the best live album position. This is a classic live prog album, so it makes sense it would place first among Genesis' other live albums.

As we head into the final round this weekend, I want to once again thank EVERYONE who has participated in this survivor over the last four months! I've really enjoyed reading everyone's thoughts, revisiting Genesis songs as we've gone through each album, and just seeing how different these results have been compared to the Survivor I ran a DECADE ago! If I think of it, maybe I'll do this again BEFORE 2032!  :lol
