Grammy Award-winning English progressive rock band who formed in 1967. With approximately 150 million albums sold worldwide, Genesis are one of the top 30 highest-selling recording artists of all time. The group's members have included Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins, both of whom achieved success as solo artists and in other music ventures.
During the 1970s and 1980s, Genesis evolved from a 60's pop band, with moody, simple guitar-driven melodies, to a progressive art rock band, with complex song structures, elaborate instrumentation, and theatrical concerts (with 23 minute songs such as "Supper's Ready" and the 1974 concept album The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway), to a more pop oriented sound. Genesis's change of musical direction to accessible music with melodic hooks gave them their first #1 album in the United Kingdom, Duke, and their only #1 single in the United States, "Invisible Touch".
Initially fronted by Peter Gabriel, Genesis have changed personnel several times over their history. Collins took over from Gabriel after the latter's departure from the group in 1975. After over two decades of being the band's frontman, Collins left the group in 1996 and was replaced by former Stiltskin singer Ray Wilson for the 1997 album Calling All Stations. Due to the commercial failure of the album, and after three decades of activity, the band announced that they were on an indefinite hiatus.
On 18 October 2006, the BBC announced that members of Genesis, including Phil Collins, Mike Rutherford and Tony Banks, had agreed to reunite for a world tour and were exploring the possibility of recording new material.

LONDON, ENGLAND --Next week, Geologists worldwide will begin a project which should effectively create a geological map of the planet earth. This will be a giant step towards understanding how the forces of pollution, population, politics and weather impact us on a global scale.
The survey will involve over 50 countries and the data collected wil be presented in a fashion similar to that of GoogleEarth.
"The geological data exists. What we are trying to do is unlock it and make
it universally available," Ian Jackson of the British Geological Survey told a
news conference on Thursday. "It is like piecing together a global jigsaw
puzzle."
"We believe that increasing the availability of geological data will increase
our knowledge of environmental factors that affect human health and welfare," he
added.
The project expects to yield results by 2008 and while there is already much data available internationally, it is stored in many different formats, one of the challenges will be to collect all of the existing data and convert the it into the new GeoSciML universal geological language.
The project will start at a meeting in southern Britain's coastal resort of
Brighton from March 12-16.
