RUSHHEAD666 Posted October 19, 2014 Author Share Posted October 19, 2014 (edited) I just heard the track for the first time and WOW! ALEX KICKS ASS!!!! Edited October 19, 2014 by RUSHHEAD666 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toymaker Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 I bought this a while back for the same reason. I think the Lifeson solo is cool, and I like some of the songs, but I find this a really strangely mixed record. I love guitar as much as the next cat, but the other instruments are really drowned out on this thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vocal parts eh. Production could be cleaner. Drowned is correct. Mixed with droned. Drumming is good. It's "Vapor Trails" on acid mixed in with some Sonic Youth with a hint of a Porcupine and a Tree.

savagegrace26 Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Wow. It sounds awful. Nothing appealing about it whatsoever. Could be an outtake from Victor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savagegrace26 Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Correction: It could be an outtake from Victor meaning it was never released so the mixing was never finished. Seriously. Is piss poor awful mxing and mastering the new big thing in music this century? Holy crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 When is Lifeson gonna some fuckking around and do a proper instrumental album with great tunes and proper melodic guitar solos on every song like back in the 70's and early 80's?

Tony R Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 He did this because this guy is one of his golfing buddies. You think? If you don't know it's better not to guess and make statements with authority. As for the album, well I think it is excellent and I have the CD and haven't thought negatively about the production.
