toymaker Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 thpblpblft . . . to some extent. I quite like some of the songs, but am disappointed over all. Roll the Bones gives me a rash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I voted "good" even though I only like three songs on it. Dreamline, Ghost Of A Chance and Bravado make up for what all the other songs on the album lack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

len(songs) Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) Song by song:Dreamline: Great song, though the glossy production hurts it a bit.Bravado: Good lyrics, but quite boring otherwise.TT: Good song apart from the rap; more specifically, the lack of good music behind the rap section.Face Up: Horribly cheesy.WMT?: Good instrumental, but the CA tour version elevates it to new heights. The Big Wheel: The verse is alright, but the chorus is... yuck, especially with the productionHeresy: Waaay too preachy.GOAC: A bit of a snoozer, though a great solo. Main problem: overratedNeurotica: Don't even get me started on this one.YBYL: Almost as boring as The Speed Of Love.

Tombstone Mountain Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 It's way better than Presto, but that's not saying much. Some great songs do reside on this album though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Analog Cub Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) Dreamline is fantastic. Roll The Bones, Bravado, and Where's My Thing? are good when played live. Ghost Of A Chance is okay. The rest of the album is some of the worst shite I've ever heard. The album also sounds like Presto part 2 with that lame production at the hands of Rupert Hine. It's better than Presto and the debut but nothing else.

bluefox4000 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 It's good. I really enjoy it as a solid pop/rock album. It is far and away my favorite of the 90's trilogy. Sure the production.....like another fav of mine Presto......is terribly weak. But hey to me it's got the tunes to overcome that. Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleMoon Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I like most of the album so I vote that it's good. I'd say it's better than average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tx_rush Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Its a good album. For being a Rush album, it is poor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laughedatbytime Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Dreamline in and of itself pushes this up to OK. I enjoy RTB too. Never listen to the rest of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Not Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Bravado is good... The rest ranges from mediocre to "worst song they've written" (that being 'where's my thing?') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaghetti Lee Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Most of this album is so bad that it doesn't even need ME to desecrate it.                          But I probably will eventually. It's just the album is SOOOOO horrible that it's even boring making fun of it.   "Dreamline" is good, "Ghost of a Chance" is one of my faves, and "Where's My Thing" is somewhat OK.  As for the rest of the album, let's just say that THIS girl keeps her copy in her bag. That's truly "fitting," no pun intended: http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--hAStyhjj--/c_fit,fl_progressive,q_80,w_636/ebw3klzs4ay8yls8zqsg.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachenFoot Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 It's okay. It has five truly solid songs in Dreamline, Bravado, Roll the Bones, Where's My Thing, and Ghost of a Chance. The rest totally drags, some of the least inspired Rush songs in the catalog.

jamie Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 It's okay. I don't listen to it much and it's not one I'd pick first, but it has some good songs on it. The songs are better to hear live in my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
