Not Rush's best album but it has some great moments. The title track for example is THE definition of what Rush should always sound like, three of the best on their respective instruments completely owning the moment, the guitar solo is sublime...
There are quite a few well constructed songs on here (I disagree on every level with junodog's comments about 'songcraft' and 'lyrics' on later albums - I feel Rush would become excellent in both categories in later releases). Sadly, the other half of the songs don't really do much for me. The opener is a blistering rocker - one of the band's best. After that, it's pretty uneven; most tracks have an element I like, such as the acoustic work in Making Memories or the guitar riff in Best I Can, but it doesn't necessarily gel together into a top-tier album.
They still had a little ways to go before they hit their stride.
Same comment as usual for me - Rush can really play. Their technical skill is unsurpassed. But they ruin it with awful awful lyrics and losing track of songcraft. A great jam band, but need to have a sense of purpose.
