New Rush owns your favorite 2007 album

[Brett]

See them on this tour, guys. I've heard people say this might be the final tour.

Any Rush > You!

Any Rush > You!

After careful consideration, I accept.

This album fucking rules. Takes you through damn near any Rush era they've done but it doesn't feel like rehashing.

If the retirement after the tour rumors are true, this is a great album to stop.

How do you know? 2007 isn't done yet! You're a charlatan! Soylent Green is made of PEOPLE!

 

[DarkNoise]

Soylent Green is also an interesting band

I can't believe Rush still tours... goddamn.

The guy's voice bothers me too much. Always has.

That'll be 38 years and counting.

BB King is well into his 80's yet tours 200+ dates a year.

A lot of people do. I personally think Geddy has an awesome voice. Though, I think that one of the best vocalists of all time is James Labrie and a shit ton of people hate his voice.

I saw Rush back in 1997 (Test For Echo tour) and holy balls....it was badass. I must go to this tour!

I wouldn't know, it's out 1st of May but what i've heard of the samples, grooved my ass.
Peart rules and not only his drumming. I like the way he writes.

James Labrie doesn't have a bad voice at all, it's his technique that start to irritate me after a few songs.
He 'bleats' too much, i.m.o. Nevertheless, he's an awesome frontman.

^ You're going to be blown away from this.

I listened to a few songs, sounds great. Good to hear the production quality picked back up again after that last album

Kudos for that mandolin solo I think I heard in track 3 or 4 or something ^^

Armor and Sword is a monster of a song. I hear some Porcupine Tree influence.

Which is natural because I imagine Rush was a big influence on PT.

I havent heard it yet but the past few Rush albums are a disgrace uke: and makes me wish they retired long ago when they cared about music.

I'll give it a listen though I'm not expecting anything special .

^ Blasphemy. Test for Echo and Vapor Trails are great records.
