AnEggplant Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Two very different albums from two very different periods. Which do you prefer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnEggplant Posted December 14, 2015 Author Share Posted December 14, 2015 Quite easily Fly By Night for me. Just a killer album beginning to end. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Quite easily Fly By Night for me. Just a killer album beginning to end. This. It's verging on 10/10 for me after years of indifference. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Analog Cub Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 A pretty good comparison. Two albums where they're trying to find their sound (a new one for an experienced band or just an identity). Gotta go with Signals. Even with the lesser songs (Chemistry) on that one they sort of know what they're doing compared to the lesser songs on FBN where they haven't a clue what they're trying to do (Rivendell) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Dad Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Signals may be my favorite album by anyone ever. Certainly my fav Rush album. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue J Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I'll go with Fly By Night as well. Both have their strengths and weaknesses. But the best of Fly By Night beats the best of Signals, I think. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyclonus X-1 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Signals would make a great EP. SubdivisionsAnalog KidThe WeaponLosing ItCountdown That's all I need from this album, thank you! I'm with you on all those choices, but I'd include Chemistry as well. I could live without New World Man and Digital Man--just as I could live without Making Memories and In the End. The strong Signals songs are stronger for me than the strong Fly by Night songs on the whole, so Signals gets my vote. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geddy's Soul Patch Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Both are great, but Signals is more interesting to me; both sonically and from a songwriting standpoint 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catherine Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 If you had asked me a few years ago I would have said FBN but Signals has grown on me a lot lately. Analog Kid is one of my top 10 Rush songs mostly because of that killer solo in there. Swoon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnRogers Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 There is a maturity and sophistication to Sigals while the band was still connected to its Fly By Night roots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at all. I don't hate it but how is it so popular? People like to poop on Counterparts but I must say I don't know how Counterparts is worse than Signals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
