GUP1771 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 If Caravan is any indication of what is to come, Clockwork Angels surely will be the best album Rush has put out since Counterparts. Caravan showcases a heavier side of Rush, plus proggish elements thrown in. Plus, it has an awesome instrumental break in the middle. For these guys to put out music like this at their age is truly amazing. Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but anyone who says the song is utter crap obviously aren't an open minded individual, and also ignorant of the music world, especially in its current state today. I can understand if someone says, "Nah, it's not for me," that's fine. Caravan definitely showcases quality in what Rush is best known for: their instrumental virtuosity.

CutToTheBass Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 This has kind of a double effect on me, as I'm a huge Queensryche fan (almost as much as I'm a Rush fan!). I really hope their new album will be better than their last... 5 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh, I don't know what gig you went to, but when I saw them on the Time Machine Tour, I seem to recall people become really excited for Caravan. But just for the sake of the argument, the songs are still relatively new, and therefore are still being processed. All of their older stuff has been processed over the years, therefore people will know them better and be more receptive. Rush's greatest asset is time, in my humble opinion. And also, it seems Cosy Toes, you are stuck in the past rather than reflecting upon the past, while being open minded to the future when it comes to Rush's music.

I hope the sauce on my gays never runs out though, there really is nothing better than licking the special sauce from a gay at teatime. You are correct in your summation of BU2B being better than Caravan. At least one of the several songs BU2B has been stitched together from has some potential to it.
