On Your Left and On Your Right:

Season Two of Mild Mannered Supermen kicks off with a bang as we dive into “Dance on a Volcano,” the explosive opening track from Genesis's 1976 album A Trick of the Tail.

This episode explores a pivotal moment in the band's history — Phil Collins stepping into the role of lead vocalist following Peter Gabriel's departure, and Steve Hackett temporarily missing in action as he pursued his own solo work. With the future of Genesis uncertain, the band responded not with hesitation… but with fire.

We break down how “Dance on a Volcano” became a statement of intent — a bold, rhythm-driven track that redefined the band's sound while still carrying the intensity and complexity of their progressive roots. It's not just a song — it's a launch, a reset, and the perfect hype track for stepping into the unknown.

Whether you're facing a big life decision, a new chapter, or just need a musical adrenaline shot, this episode explores why “Dance on a Volcano” still hits like a moment of ignition nearly 50 years later.
