Carvan Alex Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 (edited) I would give "Far Cry" a 5 star rating IMO. It's a great opening track to "Snakes and Arrows" plus the way Neil plays that hi-hat during the chorus is just groovy. And the lyrics pointing out the harsh reality that the world isn't a beautiful place makes it an awesome song. What about you?

Tony R Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 3. Compared to their best stuff it's ok. It's a far cry from classic Rush... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fridge Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Got excited at the "hemispheres" chords at the start, but should have known the rest would be a disappointment.......2 stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnRogers Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Is this the song with an explosion in it when played live? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The K Man Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 2 1/2 - rounded up to 3. The intro is great, but I am not a fan of the main riff, and while the chorus sounds like it is supposed to be catchy, it just doesn't grab me. I like S&A a lot, but that is one of my least favorites from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue J Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Is this the song with an explosion in it when played live? Yep. Four stars...great song.  Before the advent of Clockwork Angels, I'd call it a 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thirteen Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 (edited) 3 stars. Would have given it 4 stars but I'm not too keen on the verse riff and vocals. Still think it's a very good song though.
