bluefox4000 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) Rush-Snakes and Arrows (7/10) I debated on 7 or 8. i settled on 7 because the first 7 songs on this record are top notch (far Cry-The Way The Way The Wind Blows) unfortunatly there was more to come and it never lives up to the first half. Also Very ham fisted preachy lyrics. i understand why this turned some fans away. Mick Edited August 10, 2023 by bluefox4000 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's why later period Rush doesn't get much play. that and their melodic sense sort of diminished. i'm revising later period just to see if my views changed and well they had gems over the whole discography. Later rush is by far my least fav. Mick I enjoy much of it but the melodic side definitely evolved...not in the best way 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entre_Perpetuo Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Muse - Will Of The People I really enjoyed this. It starts off a little unassuming, but by side two it’s really fantastic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, try the track "Epilogo." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick N. Backer Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Just now, Turbine Freight said: I'm genuinely baffled by the criticism this album gets. It's the worst selling album of the DLR-era. Too "dark," for what casual fans are looking for from VH I'm guessing. IMO, it's their best collection of songs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
