Free Music Review: Yes, I'm Going Bald While I'm Listening to This Album!
Hit: 3 Stars
Between classic albums "Fly by Night" and "2112" Rush made this album which was both critically and commercially a downfall. The band members were probably thinking that this is their breakthough - now they're gonna success. Well, the truth is awful. Although Rush is a great band and this album has a couple of good songs - it doesn't save it. "Bastille Day" and "Lakeside Park" are great songs - but "All the World's a Stage" proved that they are much better played live. My favorite song in this album is "I Think I'm Going Bald" - I guess that most of the rockers are afraid of going bald. They are not afraid of monsters or hell. No - losing hairs is the worst thing! Then, "The Necromancer" which is one of the most boring songs I've ever heard from Rush. It has it moments but 12 minutes and 29 second of boring solos and dark melodies are too much for me. The closing track - which takes about 20 minutes. At first I thought that "The Fountain of Lamneth" could be most boring song I've ever heard but when I listened to it for the seventh time I started to realize that there's some great melodies - still it is too long. I have nothing against the long songs but if you write a long one - make sure it is an awesome one! The best part in the closing track is "Didacts and Narpets" which is actually one-minute drum solo. So - this is defintely the least favorite Rush album in the period 1974-1982.
