My prediction? Most people consider it in the realm of T4E... honestly.

 

Your prediction is incorrect.

Even when TFE came out everyone loved it at first. It wasn't until later that everyone got bored/tired of that album.

 

Not true. A lot of people hated it right away, like myself. I rewrapped it and took it back to the store for a refund.

As much as I dislike VT, I would never do such a thing. But I am a real fan.

I mean can we really tell what everything's going to be like purely from this?

 

 

Maybe 'hell yeah!'

The best news for me anyways, is I hear no VT overlaying or Geddy choirs.

I can detect a tincy tiny tincy bit of it, not much of course. Not as much as to be annoying smile.gif

 

like at the end of the Wish Them Well clip, there's a geddy high range choir bit (brief and minute though)

 

also there's quite a few bits of bits like he's humming/singin, but they're awesome IMO biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

 

 

Can't wait for this darn album!!!!

I personally still think T4E is a rather weak album. It has some good songs, but on the whole it still has never grown on me. Then again, I'm also not a fan of S&A but loved VT.

 

So take what you will from that (music is subjective, no surprise there). But I'm optimistic about this release. Musically, this sounds like some of their most technical/jammy (terrible phrasing I know) music they've done in recent times.

This album is going to friggin' rock!

 

The Wreckers DOES sound Dave Grohl's vocals will kick in at any time. LOL

If you just went off of the samples you would think Rush was some sort of neo-metal /world fusion / new age sort of band.

 

Maybe they always have been and we just didn't know how to describe it?

 

At any rate, these samples served their purpose -- they made me 653.gif

 

and then fists crying.gif

I usually do the crying AFTER I punch one out...

I'm just so happy we got to hear these snippets. Just what the doctor ordered!

 

I coincidentally have a small bash happening this weekend and where a few of my friends coming over are also MEGA Rush fans, so I am still hoping for a full leak today.

 

That being said these clips have totally satiated my appetite personally, I am so happy to have them to get get excited about, and they could easily tide me over until release day.

Caravan - Very similar to the original, maybe Neil's cymbal has been brought out a little.

 

BU2B - Geddy sounds like a muezzin singing the blues.

 

Clockwork Angels - Geddy still finishing the adhaan. Some kinda Fripp/Eno soundscape, then Alex kicks in with the rhythm from Knights of Cydonia.

 

The Anarchist - Neil's new loose African drumming style...chord progression reminiscent of Fear of a Blank Planet (the song)...OK Neil's had enough of that...nice crisp and distinguishable instrument sounds, definitely an improvement on the wall of sludge from the last couple of albums.

 

Carnies - For the Benefit of Mr. Kite covered by Brian Eno...holy crap that's a riff.

 

Halo Effect - More Eno sounds, acoustic riff reminiscent of Nobody's Hero.

 

Seven Cities of Gold - Bass riff like My Favourite Headache crossed with MalNar crossed with Primus's Hamburger Train. Overlayed with Alex's whale noises from By-Tor and the Snowdog.

 

The Wreckers - Alt-rock sound. Kinda like early Radiohead (e.g. Stop Whispering). Would never have guessed it was Rush (Geddy's voice aside).

 

Headlong Flight - Good as ever.

 

BU2B2 - Edgy...string rhythm from the end of I am the Walrus?

 

Wish Them Well - Half-speed "I set a course just East of Lyra..." + "All of us get lost in the darkness...". Seems to work well anyway!

 

The Garden - That's a really dolorous riff on the bass harmonics.

 

Overall impression: I can't wait to hear the album in full!

 

It may be a little early to jump to this conclusion but I get the sense that these songs are darker than the usual Rush, and that may reflect the influence of Nick Raskulinecz who seems to have become almost the fourth band member. Either way, as far as I can tell this seems much better than S&A, and possibly Rush's best work in a long time.
