Your First listen of Clockwork Angels

[The Owl]

I followed the "On a good system while following along with the Lyrics" on my first listen of Snakes and Arrows... I plan on being undestracted on a good system for my first Clockwork Angels spin.

[The Cat 3]

"On a Good sound System with no Distractions"

 

When "Snakes and Arrows" came out I listened to it a number of times straight through.

 

The first to just absorb the "New Rush".

 

The next few to really listen to the individual instruments and subtle nuances.

 

And then to really focus in on the lyrics.

 

I really liked that album from the beginning...still do as a matter of fact.

 

However and where ever you give the new a release it's first spin, I really hope you are able to enjoy and savor the moment.

My Hubby has set up a hammock and great system in our sunroom. Guess I'll be *hanging* in there for awhile

[Dylan2712]

I'm not entirely sure yet... Probably will be CD at home on my AKG headphones, or if i can wait for the weekend (when i get studio time) on Vinyl in the studio.

Another one of these polls but with less than 10 options and no mention of touching oneself. OUTRAGEOUS!!

[SchemingDemon]

It's released on a school day for me, so I gotta pick up the album then go to a 3 hour class. I'll listen to as much as I can in the car on the way there. I DON'T KNOW HOW I WILL SURVIVE

[Union 5-3992]

I'm torn between Computer through a CD or stereo through a CD. I have great headphones and great speakers. Depends on my mood. And who's in the house to complain if I play it loudly.

[ColdFireYYZ]

I just realized that its being released on my last day of school (have finals that day) and I'm also leaving to see Marillion once I get out of school. I'm really hoping that it leaks a week before because then I'd have time to listen to it multiple times. So I'll listen to the leak on my computer, if not I'll download it on itunes at midnight, listen to it once, and have to wait until I'm on the train to New York to listen again.

I voted to listen to it on a good sound system while reading lyrics because I always do that. Knowing the actual day though, I'll be going to pick it up, listening to Caravan/BU2B in the car, and will arrive home after. So I'll be listening to the first brand new track, Clockwork Angels, on my good stereo Edited May 25, 2012 by HemispheresserehpsimeH

I've preordered the album on iTunes, so definitely on my computer, without distraction, possibly with headphones. Although, I'm kind of hoping for a leak, because I don't want to wait anymore. If there is one, I will be all over it, listening the same way.

I plan to grab it from iTunes first thing in the morning and play it during my 1:15 commute, then grab the CD at lunch and spin the disc on the drive home.

I have a feeling my vinyl and CD may not be here by release date, so the listening party might be my first time. The only trouble is, the audio gets choppy. If my vinyl is here, it'll be that; if the CD is here, that; if both, probably the CD (all folowing along with liner notes). Then the listening party later in the evening.

Great poll Owl!

 

Of course I will play the cd on my stereo with no distractions!

 

My Rush Fan Pack should be coming any day now.

 

Can't wait!

 

RUSH ON!

 

Hey I have Dan UGGLA in my Baseball Fantasy League. Did you know that "Uggla" means Owl in Swedish?

 

[H. P. L.]

Since I will STEAL it, robbing the band and damaging the record industry, I will get first listen in the car. Then, when the CD comes, it'll be on a good stereo with no distractions.

[Tommy Sawyer]

I am backpacking from the 9th to the 14th, so there better frickin be a leak!

[KenJennings]

I'm going to be spinning a wax cylinder on my Edison phonograph.
