Genesis released "Abacab" as their eleventh studio album #OnThisDay in 1981. The album marked a shift away from progressive rock into a pop-oriented sound. It reached #1 in the UK, and became the band's first US top 10, later receiving a double-platinum certification. | Genesis

38 years ago #OnThisDay, Abacab was released in the UK. The Melody Maker's Paul Colbert haised "Keep It Dark" and "Who Dunnit?" as "the most exciting and innovative music" the band had produced for several years. Who agrees? | Genesis
