The Mighty Dudad Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I will guarantee that some folks here will say it's their best work ever, and others will say it's complete and utter crap. Based on Caravan and BU2B, I'm not worried about thinking it "sucks". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Invisible To Telescopic Eye Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I don't think it will suck but a lot of people (me included) will immediately compare it to their favorite period say it's not as good as then but better than their least favorite period...but if it sucks big deal you still have your favorites to listen to.

EveryNerveAware Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 "Sucks" in whose opinion? There hasn't been anything they've produced that I think "sucked". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rushgoober Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 If it truly does suck all the way through, I'd say it was time to give up the ghost. That said, I thought they were done after Presto & RTB, and then they came up with CP. I thought they were done after T4E and VT, but then they came up with S&A, which isn't perfect, but is at least half of a great album. Based on the first 2 songs, I think it would be VERY optimistic for me to hope for half of a great album. If they come up with 2 or 3 great tracks, I'll be happy. I'm extremely cautiously optimistic that we'll get that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReflectedLight Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 QUOTE (Nate2112 @ Apr 26 2011, 03:57 PM) What if it did? How would you feel? it wouldn't surprise me and life will go on. i haven't had the urge to listen to the two new ones leading up to the concert i attended or after i heard them played at the show so if they could come up with 2-3 keepers on the rest of the album, that's all i can ask for.

StellarJetman Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I'd be annoyed by the wasted potential (seriously, how often does an established rock group just go out and record a steampunk-themed album?), but I wouldn't really be surprised either way. The preview singles sound like a heavier Snakes and Arrows, and that album was pretty evenly divided in terms of quality (as are the singles, come to think of it), so I'm not betting on one outcome or the other. I'm hoping that it'll be good, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldphilly Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I'd feel the same way I do about S&A and VT. I don't think it will suck entirely though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosy Toes Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Well, what if it did? The world would still turn. All the good stuff that Rush did would still be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Whompus Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Mixed feelings. I thought Caravan and BU2B were awesome. If the rest of the album is as good as they said it would be, then i have no worries. Some people won't like it, but its all opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

progrush2112 Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I'm on the same boat as the "well BU2B and Caravan were badass so we shouldn't be worried" crew. If it sucks, eh whatever, at least it hopefully won't suck as bad as I Think I'm Going Bald. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USB Connector Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 With the two singles alone it's better than S&A. Unless they scrap the two singles, it's already a good album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D3strukt Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Eh, i'll torrent it to see if it is good, or bad. I do it with every release from any band. If I like, I def buy. I wonder if they'll release this on Vinyl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todem Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 It's just not possible. Seriously....not possible. Has any Rush album truly sucked? Ever? I think not. And if you do...get the f**k outta here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Sawyer Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 The two singles were great, and S&A was half a good album, so I think there are pretty good odds that it will have some good parts. I don't think any Rush album *sucks* so I don't think CA will suck. If it does, well, the world will still turn....probably Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the good stuff that Rush did would still be there. Wow, I am in complete agreement with this post! It would be disappointing, sure. But it's not as if that would destroy all the great work they've done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
