MUSICinTheABsTrAcT Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Thanks to Alexmai for the idea 60-second samples - Clockwork Angels Well, how about both of the 30-second clips edited together for a total 12-minute preview (Walmart clips plus the Italian site clips, edited together and both clips normalized for volume, etc . . .

FountainOfSyrinx Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Sounds like the Caravan bass is jacked.. i love it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FountainOfSyrinx Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 (edited) Now it's much easier to analyze! Halo Effect sounds exceptionally strong IMO. Geddy's vocals are a little odd, but nothing odd. Seven Cities of Gold sounds very upbeat and complex. The Wreckers has to be my favorite preview, so far Edited June 4, 2012 by FountainOfSyrinx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigershark2112 Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I hear a lot more depth in the songs now. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexmai Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 (edited) Great! It's more clear, now... I'm happy. In my personal chart, CA has the stronger material since Counterparts. Being that Counterparts has at least 3 fillers, the previous Rush CD this strong is... in my opinion, Moving pictures. Remember that this album is long twice Signals or PoW... so take the best 8 songs of 12... Edited June 4, 2012 by Alexmai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flying Finn Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Thank you. Many songs worked better this way. Carnies, Seven Cities of Gold, The Wreckers and The Garden all sound very good. Clockwork Angels hasn't completely convinced me. I have to hear more. Didn't expect every song to be masterpiece. The Anarchist sounds dull. Halo Effect sounds bit meh, like does BU2B2 too. Wish Them Well is at least catchy and has okay melody but it seems to be pretty simple song and wore out pretty quickly. I don't wanna speculate too much how good this album will be after only hearing the clips and not the whole album but if there is even 5-6 songs that are good the album won't be a dissapointment. We have got 3 great songs already so I'm hopeful that this will be the best Rush album since Counterparts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vital signz Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 (edited) TO ALL of the people that slammed the second 30 second previews yesterday: http://gifsoup.com/webroot/animatedgifs/320835_o.gif This is the best I have heard from them in two decades I reiterate. And again I will reemphasize the thought that there is either Grammy nomination or win coming. Rush is a band that usually takes several listens to "get each song"..... There's something very special about these songs. All of them grab me instantly...from the very first listen, and the words have deep connection with the music, and the mix is brilliant. Bravo Alex, Geddy, and Neil, Bravo!!!!!!!!! And to the idiot that compared Alex's playing to that of Joan Jett: http://cdn2.sbnation.com/imported_assets/810488/8_medium.gif Edited to say thanks to MiTA for his excellent work and an applause for all he brings to this forum!

Presto-digitation Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I did this the other day be merely opening up the walmart and Italian sites in two windows and playing them back-to-back. Good experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losingit2k Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Great! Thanks this is exactly what we needed to hear these songs back to back! Clockwork Angels, Carnies and 7 cities of Gold are going to ROCK! Thanks Mita! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BU4B Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 well done, it certainly makes for an interesting look at what we can expect still not getting BU2B2 don't like the effect on the whole song lol but it will probably end up being my favourite track on the album. Such is the nature of Rush and their songs. Although Vapour Trails is still my least favourite of their albums never really grew on me. I am loving what we have had so far with this album BU2B, Caravan and now Headlong have become my favourite rush material to listen to at the moment.
