About this album

A Trick Of The Tail is the album that proved Genesis could thrive after Peter Gabriel’s departure, turning uncertainty into one of their most acclaimed late-1970s statements. Released in 1976, it introduced Phil Collins as lead vocalist while preserving the band’s intricate musicianship and imaginative storytelling. Built around songs such as Dance On a Volcano, Squonk and Entangled, the record pairs progressive complexity with a more immediate melodic sense, helping bridge Genesis’s art-rock roots and their broader classic rock appeal. Its confidence, variety and polish made it a key album in the band’s evolution and one of their defining works.
