Merely Space Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 QUOTE (Relax Jack @ Jun 5 2012, 08:17 AM) Caravan, BU2B and Headlong flight were already in my heavy rotation before the rest of CA. Now adding Clockwork Angels, The Wreckers, The Garden and Seven Cities of Gold. Every listen so far has been better than the last! This album contains everything I like about RUSH, sonically, lyrically, complexity, melody and the ability to listen to the song with three different ears: guitar, bass and drum!!! 9! Welcome to the forum. Love your avatar! But how is it you joined in 2010, but didn't make your first post until 2012? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormtron Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 I didn't think I would be rating it this soon, but damnit, it's a really great album. Right now I'd give it a 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's the problem with this poll. Too early. No offense OP, but this poll will forever be flawed. Why would you want ratings on a Rush album based on a leak that won't sound as good as the cd.

Majestyk Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 I wouldn't really give it an 11 but I did vote 9. This is the first Rush album since Counterparts that didn't need to grow on me to like it. Well, some tracks on S&A were like that too but ALL the tracks on CA are fantastic. Wish Them Well isn't bad it's just not as good as the others, hence the 9 rating. I'm not even sure which track is the best, they are all that great!

fiznab Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 I rated it a 7, because it exceeded my expectations and was just generally a really good album. Because I'm obsessed with ranking things, I'd say it lands somewhere like this. Grace Under Pressure Permanent Waves Hemispheres Moving Pictures Power Windows A Farewell to Kings Snakes & Arrows Signals 2112 Cockwork Angles Presto Fly By Night Hold Your Fire Roll the Bones Counterparts Caress of Steel Vapor Trails Test 4 echo Rush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been out for like 24hrs You have a point but right now it sits at about #6 for me and may climb a couple of spots. It's hard for me to leapfrog it above GUP and PoW because I love the 80's keyboard records more than records like 2112 and AFTK. I think you will love this record metaldad. Will be interesting to see your take on the softer songs. I wasn't that crazy about SnA(like you) so it still floors me that the softest song on this record just might be my fav. I didn't even think that was possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchetaxe&saw Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 So far so good. Quite marvellous in parts. Won't score it yet though, that will take weeks. But, I think this album will satisfy those who want "Rush - And Now With Added Balls", e.g., Lord Metaldad.

UltimoGuitarist Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 I voted a 6 but after a second run through i'd give it a 7 now. I would vote higher, seeing as I think Caravan, BU2B, and HLF are masterpieces, but aside from carnies and the anarchist, the rest of the album is pretty drab for me, so that brings it down big time. I find it inconsistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
