len(songs) Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 A better question might be to name some ways that CA is better..? 1. Better songs The only tune that's absolutely lights out us La Villa. Cygnus has brilliant moments musically, but ultimately too long, with a forgettable guitar solo. Circumstances is a decent song but not great. The Trees is the 2nd best track IMO. 2. Better Vocals Geddy's voice that record is just lacking nuance. In addition, and we all know this, it's too strained. The Trees is the best effort vocally. On CA Geddy is off the hook awesome in this regard 3. Depth While Hemispheres offers depth (Hard to deny La Villa & Hemispheres), CA seems endless in terms of imagination and scope. To put it in artistic vernacular—they're painting in the corners. 4. Fresh and new Sorry. Hemispheres seems to be leftover material, save La Villa, from AFTK. CA sounds like nothing else the band has recorded, yet brings the listener to the familiar—over and over again. 5. More music I'll quality over quantity anyday. CA is monstrous for 66 minutes 6. Balls Yes, gonadal integrity resurfaces on CA unlike any record since 21127. Better cover art What man enjoys looking at another dude's butt. Or, looking at some creep in a bowler (with cane) checking out a naked guy's package? CA wins hands down You make some good points, but the cover art on CA was extremely disappointing for me. The inside artwork is fantastic, but the cover art is just blah.IMO the cover art is alright, better than 2112, Hemispheres, and Counterparts (yes, even the cover art is bad). Still not as good as AFTK or even T4E though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balls Yes, gonadal integrity resurfaces on CA unlike any record since 2112 1. Clockwork Angels is not nearly as good an album as people think. The melodies on the album are seriouslee lacking. Outside of 2 or 3 tracks I can honestly say that the song writing is sub par. Hemispheres too long? Go pick up a Ramones album. Too long. Sheesh 2. Better vocals is ridiculous. Geddy was in his prime and absolutely killed himself to give you those vocals and they are glorious. He shredded his chords and hurt his range. That is what the vocals on CA are. 3. They painted everywhere. There's a wall of paint so thick you can't see the colors, to use your analogy. No space or room to breathe in CA which was something that always made Rush special. 4. Hemispheres is not new. Classic but not new. We agree. 5. Times they are a changing. I'm not going to hold it against a band to put out an album that fits on... well... an album. They did not have the vision to invent a larger record that could hold as much as a CD. Once again, we agree. 6. Now here we are not agreeing again. Balls? CA has more balls than Hemispheres? You are on crack and you should never do a drug named after part of your ass. (Good advice). There is some strong playing on CA and Geddy somehow keeps getting better but you cannot really believe that CA has more balls. Can you? 7. I'm adding #7. Melody. There is a novel concept. There are gorgeous melodies on Hemispheres and CA is this close to a William Shatner album. Even Geddy's bass (and he really is getting better) has lost its melodic feel. Aggressive and tight but not pretty at the same time like Hemispheres. The musicianship blows away CA. We can talk about opinions and what you like or prefer all day but please do not tell me that CA is better than Hemispheres. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there is depth. but it's buried beneath the most inexplicably bad production. When they clean it up i'll get back to you. 4. How is it new. It's sounds like Rush does Foo Fighters.....that's thanks to Nick though. 5. this is subjective. It's a major drawback to me. I don't have time for 66 mins unless you've got A1 material. Which Sorry they did not. 6. Yes they had the balls to release an album that sounded like shit. all respectfully IMO of course.

Good grief, if he tried to do what he accomplished with Hems today...we would be either in hysterical stitches, or looking to Britney Spears demo recordings for musical fulfillment. Seriously, I enjoy his vocals on CA, but you can tell he had to be very strict, not because he is disiplined, but because his voice is lacking that fantastic range he had when he was younger. I know you love CA, but you need to respect the fact that others make valid arguments against your case! And can I just say that shockingly Hemispheres is once again a top five record. Mind blown!
