Never Said I love You my goto Lifeson track right now

That guitar entrance to Look Inside

 

Alex Lifeson of Rush

 

Today

 

After this first attempt they really need to pull out another album sooner rather than later to seal it

 

Great stuff

superb album i love how Al doing his evolved stuff without standing out TOO much

three tracks us rush heads should be ALL OVER Look Inside Liar and Never I Said I Love you this is Alex EVOLVED 

struggling with about half of the album but the other half is fantastic, where Al was born to evolve into, Enemy, Look Inside, Liar, Never Said I love You, have a few drinks you'll see why they so cool, western sunset a lovely tribute to neil

look inside, when Al first comes in with guitar. christ.

i'm embarrassed by my first impressions to this album, got Al all over it LOOK INSIDE reminds me of BU2B thought what the f*ck is that became one of my fav rush tracks this is the guy who did the Necromancer now in 2022 his sh*t is all over the place i love what he doing here is all over the album is what he was born to evolve into i cant wait for their next album

Loving Liar, look inside and Never Said I Love you. Great stuff and Al's influence really stand out

Ok, Never Said I Love You quite catchy, could listen to that again. Enemy seems ok without hitting too many heights

Not too keen on that particular female voice to be honest, sets a monotone undercurrent through the whole album, spy house suffers badly for it, better as instrumental imo. Western sunset grabbed me a bit but can't see me going back to album

It isnt lifeson of rush so judging it on own merits as separate band and not feelin it really

 

His solo album was defo lifeson of rush just being a little different at times

 

Totally get his need to diversify mindyou, good luck to the great man

Shuffling off the old Rush baggage. It was a thing. It was a great thing. Done.

Did Massive Attack in the 90s and this a poor imitation really

The guys coulda done a tour not performing as Rush but performing Rush music with guest percussionists, woulda been great nothing too heavy or expected, more like a party or celebration while Al and Ged could still do their thing together, can't see the problem they'd make a fortune the fans happy and everybody has a great time, just get it on

Cant decide with those three, all on a par really, just a little bit below their glorious best but still great

Just to say the new single from the album 'look inside' is out for streaming now i caught on youtube

 

Starts great..

Can't choose really both great albums that fall slightly below level where could say possibly their best

Rush artwork almost always great and always interesting, some of it could hang in any art gallery but, the actual cover of clockwork angels is dull in my eyes

At times i've listened to COS and genuinely thought this is their greatest album. It's that good.

 

FBN obviously great album and Anthem like wow, Alex in the youtube of it is just.. beyond awesome, no other rock guitarist comes close to that solo, the sheer intensity of it, a young master at work

 

But COS as an entire album is a classical masterpiece, so obvs wins for me

As complete albums Presto definitely gets it from me but half of CA definitely more mature & developed great Rush. If the whole album had been same quality it could've been their very best, nevermind better than Presto.

 

As it is, Presto high quality from start to finish so easily beats CA for me

Masterpiece for me, if not their best defo top 3.

 

Earthshine ffs

Tight between Rio and ASOH

They say 'Rush announce Moving Pictures boxset' implying Rush is still a thing

 

Is Rush still a thing I ask, especially when Neil passed away

 

 

Had a change of feeling about that tom morello thing, is actually pretty good and showcases Al's guitar pretty well. Decent stuff.

 

One thing i'm noticing though in Al's collaborations, seems to be trying hard not to sound like Alex Lifeson of Rush

 

 

 

He even played that way while still in Rush doing work outside of Rush.

 

Mostly yes but, there's an awful lot of guitar on Victor that could easily be on a Rush album - definitely Lifeson of Rush stuff

 

Edit - But yeah although working with others on Victor is still what described as his solo album so unsure if can be described as a 'collaboration' as such.
