Title: Could have been better
Review: After the disappointment of Vapor Trails, I was hoping for improvement. Let me start by saying I first saw Rush as a backup band to Kiss in 1974. I have seen them more than a dozen times since. They are probably one of the best live bands ever. Snakes and Arrows does not do them justice. On the first listen, you have trouble distinguishing between the songs. After a few times through you begin to hear the nuances and distinctions. It is definitely better than Vapor Trails but a far cry from their earlier work. There seems to be a dark side to this CD and it left me feeling kinda depressed after listening to it. Long time Rush fans will probably like it, but you have to give it a long listen and then decide.
Is the review positive or negative?
