Title: Not a Good Rush album
Review: This is a real review, I work in Radio, and have gotten an advance copy. This album is very much like Geddy's "My Favorite headache" combined with "Vapor Trails".For some of you, that sounds like a good combo. It's not. The album wanders all over the place, never picking up steam. The lyrics are very, very negative ("I don't have faith in faith").The first single, Far Cry is a terrific song to start the album with. Enjoy the song, because that type of energy doesn't re-appear at all here. If you enjoy instrumentals, this album may be for you. It features 3 (THREE!), and one of them is just Alex Lifeson (solo).I am a long time Rush fan, and was hoping this album was a return to form. It's not. The songs are disjointed, plodding, and soft. Please don't read this review and assume I only like the old albums. Some of my favorites are Test for Echo, Presto, and Counterparts.Not my idea of Rush. Better luck next time, guys.
