My god! Now some may accuse me of being a Rush fanboy, which I can't deny,
 , but I put down S&A for a few days and went back to it today. This is really a great set of songs. This has potential to become my favorite Rush CD. I know, that's pretty extreme. S&A over Hemispheres? MP? PeW? Yup, it's really hitting a home run with me.

Everything OK, StyLaZyn, a bit overheated ....
 ? To be honest, I can imagine that progheads like the new Rush album but the best Rush ever made
 .. if I compare Snakes & Arrows with A Farewell To Kings, Hemispheres and Moving Pictures, it's Man U, Liverpool and Arsenal comparing with Everton, Bolton or Tottenham  !By the way, I just got this e-mailfrom the Rush fanclub:

Well, Erik, this may come as a shock to some here, but I actually have non-Prog music I really dig, even over Prog. I know, I know...blasphemy.

StyLaZyn, into the corner immediately, no moving for one hour
 ... and then go listening to Museo Rosenbach, Triana and Le Orme

It's a great opener, very dynamic and it has early Eighties undertones, it makes you feel OK that Rush is back on the track after their disappointing Vapor Trails album.

I got more and more excited about the new Rush album, this evening I even posted their opener Far Cry as a 'goose bump moment'
 !
