    "Susan Tate brought to the table the idea to record 'Operation: Mindcrime II'. The band was hesitant and did not want to lessen the original. But Susan Tate and Geoff Tate hired a budget producer and took control without really any other input. The manipulation of upfront monies was the Tates' main tool to get what they wanted. Scott Rockenfield, Eddie Jackson and I were squeezed out of having any input in the musical direction or business decisions, thus the project suffered."

     

    I f'n knew it. The exact same stance that I had all along...why would they truly want to mess with the original and make a half-assed sequel?!

     

    Geoff stated that he had "always planned to make the sequel". Yeah, 16 years later right Geoff?! Such bullshit...it was nothing more than a money-making (or so he had hoped) scheme to try and revive a band that was floundering, especially with their older fan-base.

     

    I'm so glad it bombed...because it never should've seen the light of day to begin with. It's no surprise that the others didn't want it to exist. In fact, this really puts my faith back in the remaining members. They were smart enough to know that this never should have been made.

     

    I'm also in a way happy to hear that Chris DeGarmo basically left because he couldn't work with Geoff. Maybe there is still hope of Chris making an appearance again in the future. I am hopeful...

    HAPPY ANNIVERSARY treeduck!

    Clockwork Angels, a Masterpiece

    in Rush

    Well...I don't like tossing around the words 'Masterpiece' or 'Epic' as loosely as some.

     

    Is it an amazing album? Hell yes. I'm very happy with it, and it's a fantastic record no doubt.

     

    But, I stop short of calling it Masterpiece, because if it's a masterpiece, then I'd have to come up with new words to describe Hemispheres, Permanent Waves, and Moving Pictures. Can't do it. no.gif

    I get a kick out of guys throwing shit at trenken.....he makes a lot of valid points and has strong opinions. Some of you take it personally?.....grow up already.

    I agree with this.

     

    I'm admittedly a huge fanboi, but even I don't have issues with people stating negative thoughts or opinions.

     

    Who gives a shit if someone doesn't like a song you do? People hate Virtuality. I love it. Same with Neurotica. Who cares?

     

    I love CA, but if it's not someone's cup of tea, then so be it. No matter how good an album is...it's possible for someone not to like it.
