ST3V Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 why does this exist:BU2B2It's a coda. Yeah, but I feel they coulda put more effort into it rather than just strings + vocals. It would've made it a whole lot better if Alex just sat down and broke out his acoustic for a bit, nothing too crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pressure/Hopenosis Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 It's unfortunate, for me, that I just can't get into ANY of the songs on this album. Too many musical ideas and forced lyrics jammed into each song. If the producer wouldn't have been such a fanboi, he could've simplified and polished some of the songs. Shame really because bits and pieces are so brilliant... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnoble Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Exactly right. I like a lot of the parts and riffs but not the songs as a whole 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geddyleegenes Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I'm surprised I never chimed in on this one previously. Here goes: 1. Headlong Flight2. The Wreckers3. Clockwork Angels4. The Anarchist5. Wish Them Well6. Carnies7. Caravan8. BU2B9. The Garden10. Seven Cities of Gold11. Halo Effect12. BU2B2 For me, "Headlong Flight" just kicks major ass. Really brings Rush back to it's roots of the first 4 albums or so. This is one of my all-time Top 10 Rush songs. I know others will be wondering why I rate "The Garden" so low. Well, at least it's not last. I find the song just too depressing. It's not the most depressing on the album. That would be "BU2B2". I've commented before that I can't understand why Rush would follow "Headlong" with "BU2B2". "Headlong" is so out there. So joyous. So pumped up. Then "BU2B2" comes on and geesh... where's that Suicide Hotline number? (I don't mean to make light of such things. I suffer depression like so many others.) "The Garden" is the last song we'll ever get from Rush. Hopefully, Geddy and Alex will record together again, but it won't be Rush. So for "The Garden" to be the last song, and for it to be (to me) so depressing? I just can't rank it higher. Below that, "Seven Cities" just doesn't do anything for me and "Halo Effect" is too slow and a bit boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
