The new single for PG's upcoming record, the 20 years in the making... i/o
The first thing I admire is how many sounds it pulls from, an instrumentally very solid single, especially on the verses you can hear Tony Levin plucking away... what a groove!
Lyrically I hear a lot of Land of Confusion and Tonight, Tonight, Tonight in it, and although those are Collins' Genesis tracks, the atmospheres are very similar, Panopticom captures quite an industrial but uplifting soundscape.
Peter's voice, och, it hasn't aged. He's going for an almost leering Intruder style here.
Effortlessly PG.
Written and Performed by Peter Gabriel.
