goose Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Some tough decisions: DreamlineBravadoOpen SecretsSecond NaturePrime MoverLock And KeyMissionTurn The PageNeuroticaHigh Water 7-3 in favor of HYF. Not surprising.Actually it is, considering that by many market metrics, RTB is one of their most successful albums. Four charting singles, as I recall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 good to know Im not the only guy who likes Heresy.I like it, as it pretty well captures the post-USSR sentiment of uts time. Ged's vocals are great, like they are throughout the album. It's preachy, but if we use that as a metric, a whole lotta Rush goes out the window. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LedRush Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Force Ten < DreamlineTime Stand Still = BravadoOpen Secrets < Roll the BonesSecond Nature > Face UpPrime Mover < Where's My Thing?Lock and Key < The Big WheelMission > HeresyTurn the Page < Ghost of a ChanceTai Shan < NeuroticaHigh Water < You Bet your Life 7-2 for RTB, which shouldn’t surprise anyone except the 1980’s synthophants who populate TRF. RTB was the first album in a decade not to sell less than its immediate predecessor, still has 3 songs regularly played on classic rock radio (compared to HYF’s 0 songs), and finally saw the proper reintroduction of the guitar in Rush’s music.

Segue Myles Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 As much as I love Time Stand Still, Bravado is my favourite song of any of the albums post-GUP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
