There are a few other topics mentioning this as well, and yes, it's a nod to Bastille Day. I also noticed that the title track on CA has bits and pieces of 2112 riffs. Have you noticed that as well?

The entire album has the RUSH 70's flare...I can pull out riffs and similar sounds and find those same sounds in the 70's RUSH..

 

What about Geddy's bass line in The Anarchist???? Listen closely....

There is also a nod to Hemispheres from Neil in the lyrics. He says "fire" in both songs.

The Hemisphere sound is also in FAR CRY....

Take a healthy dose of Bastille Day, mix in a heaping helping of By-Tor and sprinkle liberally with ass-kickery and you have Headlong Flight.

This is really a great tune.
