Went Out for Smokes 13 Years Ago
i'm a bigger fan of the earlier years, up through moving pictures--aftk, hemispheres, 2112... starting with signals they started to get a little heavy on the keys....not to say they don't have some righteous 80/90s material; subdivisions, distant early warning, roll the bones are all pretty rad, some of my favorites. i really like vapor trails, i haven't heard feedback but i can't wait for the next full-length. rush was also one of the best live shows i've seen.dorian gray said:

Feedback is okay, but it's way too short.
And, yes, Rush puts on one hell of a live show. I caught them on the 30th anniversary tour and they played for 3 hours.
Imagine if Opeth did a set like that...

yeah, feedback is great but way too short. i guess it *is* just an EP, but it's disappointing when you realize it's over. you like vapor trails? i took a listen but couldn't get into it. maybe i'll check it out again.cthulufhtagn said:
you mentioned subdivisions - how 'bout new world man? i remember the day i figured out the bass line to it. i thought i died. incredible stuff in my opinion.
Give Vapor Trails another chance. It is very good IMO and better than Test for Echo.
While we're on the topic of Rush, I highly recommend Neil Peart's book "Ghost Rider". In case you didn't know, his wife and daughter both died around '99 and this book is an amazing journey through emotions I hope I never have to experience.

will do.wwallinga said:
didn't peart's daughter die in a car accident around 96 and then his wife die of cancer in 98? isn't ghost rider a story he wrote about his motorcycle trip across north america? never read it but i remember when it came out. seems to me that his family died earlier than 99. i think it was right after Test. that's why they didn't put out another album for so long. maybe i'm wrong.
>didn't peart's daughter die in a car accident around 96 and then his wife die of cancer in 98?
Probably - I didn't have the exact dates in front of me.
>isn't ghost rider a story he wrote about his motorcycle trip across north america?
Yes - it's a really good book. I read it twice.
>maybe i'm wrong.
Maybe, but you ask rhetorical questions so we'll never be able to prove it.

you honestly think brave new world > their 80's albums? [excluding powerslave, which you already included.]
wow.
wow.
Brave New World is a great album. It is definitely better that No Prayer for the Dying. But, no, I would not rank it above any other 80s albums.
Wait, I just checked... NPftD was released in 1990. I suck, but I do my homework!
