DBJetsman Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 CA in my mind is the best Rush album since Signals. I think it ranks as exactly 10 in my Top 10 Rush albums EVER. Where do YOU rank it??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclonus X-1 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 A strong sixth at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laughedatbytime Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 sixth for me too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trenken Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 It doesnt touch anything prior to RTB for me. Maybe better than RTB, on par with Counterparts, better than T4E which I hate, on par with VT, and better than S&A. Definitely not top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReRushed Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I think it's better than anything from Presto through Snakes & Arrows and I think it's better than anything from Rush through Caress of Steel. So with that logic, it sits at number 10, at worst. Surprising. It's still middle of the pack, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todem Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) Permanent Waves Hemispheres Moving Pictures Signals Power Windows Grace Under Pressure 2112 Hold Your Fire A Farewell To Kings Clockwork Angels 10th for me. My top 5 have been set in stone for few decades now and will never change. Clockwork jumped over Snakes and Arrows for the 10th spot.

The Owl Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Believe it or not, I still am in the absorbing phase of this album (which will likely last until I see how these songs hold up live)... and I have not even tried to fit in this album with the grander and larger Rush body of work as a whole.. I can say that I love the album, very very much, and would say that it is very very likely to see this crack my top 10 (possibly even 5) but I am still not at a point to categorize it fully.

presto123 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) Depending on what mood I'm in anywhere from 3-6. It will never top MP and PeW but anything else it is right there with. Great record. Edited July 17, 2012 by presto123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losingit2k Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 5th for me! Hemispheres Moving Pictures Permament Waves A Farewell to Kings Clockwork Angels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeaveMyThingAlone Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Would probably put it at 5th or 6th right now, and I think it will forever hold up in the top 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anchorman Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 1. Hemispheres 2. Moving Pictures 3. 2112 4. Grace Under Pressure 5. Permanent Waves 6. AFTK 7. Fly By NIght 8. Signals 9. CA 10. Power Windows 11. Caress of Steel 12. Counterparts Yes. CA makes it in at # 9. Not bad. For me, anything that comes remotely close to matching 1976-1984 is high praise. These guys were peaking during those 8 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

softfilter Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 QUOTE (trenken @ Jul 16 2012, 09:00 PM) Maybe better than RTB, No maybe's about it... Wayyyy better then RTB by a long shot. I'm not sure yet as a top ten ranking for all time Rush albums. But it's still the best they done on a consistent song for song basis since CounterParts. And I think CA is by far, better then CP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quit trolling! Dreamline alone takes a dump all over everything on CA. That alone makes me wonder if CA means more to me than that album, plus RTB has a few other strong songs, so for me it's very debatable considering I think most of CA is very boring.
