Digitallware Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 They've been lowered for be but just think the early reviews made the album sound like a panacea of prog rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alchemical Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 (edited) I can't help but wonder how much RoadRunner had to pay off critics to assuage their opinions and more or less declare this album as Rush's final masterpiece... I mean how else would they build up the hype? BAD Roadrunner, BAD! So terribly disappointed...it sounds like aborted VT songs. I PRAY to the gods that my opinion will be swayed once I listen to the full songs and not just out of context clips. Can't see this cracking Top 10 Rush albums now though.

The over the top positive reviews certainly dont match the quality of the clips. But as everyones saying, these are only clips and theres alot more music to be heard. Im concerned, but holding out hope that it lives up to the critics' hype. Edited June 3, 2012 by greg2112 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowman Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Well, I have painfully learned the hard way listening to 30 second clips. I have purchased CD's from unknown bands and when I got it, it was utter crap. And vice versa. I have discovered later that very bad clips was actually very good. Regarding the CA clips, they are more or less what I expected. I have no clue what to think. And that is the good with me and Rush. I always need multiple listens to finally grasp the songs. I have always been disappointed, ever since Hold Your Fire, which was my first Rush release. I will not listen more to thse 30 sec clips, they only confuse. I dont think I will like the entire album, I have not done that on the last 5-10 albums. Though, I have not heard anything that would prove this to be true this time. What is a fact is that I will like at least 3 of the songs. For the others I have heard some promising clips. Interesting. Only a few days until the truth is uncovered.
