Another example of the genius of some of the British musicians of the late 1960's early 1970's. Parsons also produced Dark Side Of The Moon for Pink Floyd. Just a phenomenal song and album.
The reason APP sounds like Pink Floyd is because Parsons worked with them on "Dark Side of the Moon". Floyd is not the originator of the concept album. As you may know, it was The Beatles that did the first modern concept albums... and Parsons was at Abbey Road at the time, as an engineer. So, there's a reason Floyd and APP have a similar sound, at times. Also, some of the guest musicians on APP also were guest (studio) musicians for Floyd.
its supposed to imply a continuing story of creation, man created robots in his own image and now they have over thrown man leading to a new era of creation hence genesis ch1. verse 32
I don't know about all that. What I do know is that we used to get baked to the be - jesuscrispies and turn this up as high as it would go on the old Quadrophonic system.
"the voice" was the last warning, "Day after day" the consciousness raising of manking, about to be taken over by 'bots. "Total Eclipse" the actual occurring, and this one the aftermath
The guy in the record store was playing this for me and put it in my bag accidently, so before i return to visit next week i am literally playing it non stop as it is so epic.
Listen to the theme song of "Koyaanisqatsi" - Genesis is very reminiscent of it with the synthesizer + choire, even in melody. I'm surprised; I've never drawn a comparison between APP and Philip Glass.
the verse 32 doesnt exist, actually, in the Genesis Book. It ends with 31. The album theme - robot taking over man's power on this planet - may have something to do with this
@daehtnulb ...yeah i agree...The Fountain (music by Clint Mansell, right?;-)...is amazing soundtrack....i would guess that Mansell was into Alan Parsons when he was growing up..?..!..
@robelicit Yep, that's the one! I'm would not doubt that he was into APP when he was younger; a need to create music that produces this feeling to the listener.
@martycubfan meh, what about "death is the road to awe" from "The Fountain" soundtrack? and genesis ch1 v32 is way better than requiem for a dream IMO

Had never realized about this clever reference 'til now!!
Genesis Ch. 1. V. 32!
It does not exist in The Bible!
So... Is Parson a new collaborator on The Bible?

what it means is the next thing to happen in 'creation" was man creates the robot in his own image.
