Anyone looking forward to the new Rush album?

It's coming out on May 1st and it is goign to be titled "Snakes and Arrows". The first single, "Far Cry", is going to hit radio in about a month....It's produced by the guy who produces all the Foo Fighters albums, and it's supposed to be harder than anything they've done yet. Anyone else besides me excited about this?

NO. Moving Pictures was good back when I was a mere lad but, you know, Rush. I find most Rush fans weird, really weird and nerdy. Just me HO.

Can't say I am, to be honest!

make that 4 no's

Make that 5!

i think they have a few really good songs

and i bought this live dvd of them the other week which is quality - he's a class bass player

so i wouldn't say i'm looking forward to it, but i will probably buy it

i'm looking forward to 2 other albums that come out on the same day - chris cornell solo album and dinosaur jr

who is this Rush? are they anything like the Cure?

not excited, just interested

Rush should make a sequel to 2112 (2113? 4224?), or maybe a prequel (1221?)... and have the little ATHF terrrorist Mooninite guest sing with Geddy Lee on the record, I don't think Geddy can reach those high notes as well as he used to back when he was 40yrs old... then I would harken back to my early teens and look forward to THAT new Rush album... only if it had the Mooninite, or maybe Cartman on it.

other than that, seriously, no.

Very interested!! "Vapor Trails" was a great return to form-they just rocked out!! "Subdivisions" and the synth stuff they did in the 80s bored me.

"Feedback" was fun-most bands will release a big box set for their 30th anniversary. Rush covered Cream and The Who!!

I know Rush has a really strong following, and their lyrics are suppose to be mind-blowing, but quite honestly I could never start to appreciate them due to the singer's voice being so high. That voice makes me want to turn off the song after about 10 seconds of listening to it.
