GeminiRising79 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Doesn't this brazenly go against one of Rush's/Neil's sacred tenets not to ever consider fan suggestions for future material? Is there any truth to this? Found some other interesting tidbits here: CA Reviews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

losingit2k Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 (edited) Wow, have we resorted to going off site for the bad reviews now? I wouldn't be surprise if half these new "bad" reviews are from some of the same people dizzing them here.

Snaked Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Funny thing about a majority of the negative reviews on Amazon is that the people haven't even bought the album. If you haven't bought it, how can you review it? hmmmmmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gedneil Alpeart Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 So far, 155 reviews, 4.5 out of 5 stars.....happy that CA is being raved about by the MAJORITY of Rush fans. Of course to some on here, the majority are just a bunch of delusional fanbois whose opinions are "wrong". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 the point of this thread is to make people clicking the link think that all of the reviews are bad and, apparently, lower their opinion of the album. He's hoping you don't notice that the link is ONLY for the 1 star reviews, not the 2,3,4, and 5 reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earthshine Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 He is. But so what? Him being a fanboy makes him all the more familiar with the greatness of the band, and not some producer who has never heard of them before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geddy said in a recent interview with Billy C that he was initially concerned over Nick R's fan status, but in fact, his fears never materialized and that Nick was never afraid to challenge them in ways they could appreciate.

Dscrapre Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 (edited) Oh no? Some other random people that I will never meet don't like the new album? Then I can't either. Clockwork Angels sucks and I can't believe that anybody ever liked it. Thank you GeminiRising79, your always useful posts have taught me the error of my ways.

Jomboni Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 well I guess there's only one good use for my copy of the album now that I just realized it sucks! http://exploresearchunderstand.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/vann_fast_09__paper_people_and_vinyl_record_bowl_115_1250510113.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltimoGuitarist Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 If he was a fanboy he would never make suggestions on how to make their music better, which he does. He would simply think anything they do is perfect. Nuff said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
