@@NicknLex I guess many just want those heavy guitar riffs, I get it. But the songwriting here is so strong, and they still rip through those complex bridges and changes, and the musicianship...stellar. Geddy sounds so good singing in his normal register instead of falsetto. If you haven't tried 90s stuff yet, some softer ballads there like Bravado feature a lot of great singing, less keyboards more guitar. Available Light is another interesting one, piano heavy ballad.

Pinnacle 80's Rush. They are absolutely at the top of their game here but it comes alive even more when you see them playing this live, if you can believe that. Quite possibly my all time favourite album from any band period. As much as I love early 70's Rush, it's the 80's synth fueled albums that brought the best out of them in my opinion.

Hi guys ! When you did "Time Stands Still" I went and got the album from my cd shelf and played all of it. You have that effect on me. It was really good playing it again as it had been a while. [ I even have the original vinyl, but bought it again on cd ] This is a wonderful track which also needs to be heard live. This album contains some very deep lyrics and you can tell a lot of thought went into the writing. It's a case of they wanted to use their music to tell us of the importance of the human condition.

Ironically, your back to back reactions matches my original Rush experience. After I caught the bug hearing a couple of their popular songs about 1989, I went out and bought two cassettes not knowing what to expect. I grabbed Fly By Night and Hold Your Fire because I like those album covers the best. The listening sessions were just unbelievable. After absorbing the proto metal on Fly By Night and hearing how much they influenced the metal I was already into, I then moved to Holy Your Fire for this exquisite edgy pop immersion. This is the same band? I was NOT let down by Hold Your Fire, I was intrigued that they created a crypto-pop album sneaking in all of the prog and metal chops in between the cracks. Masters at work under all the synths. And lyrically more sublime and compelling than the typical love and breakup songs of pop. It was intense to me, nothing cheesy at all to my ears.

The full digital DDD on the CDs actually started a couple of albums earlier. Power windows was definitely DDD, and I think maybe even Grace Under Pressure may have even been the first DDD.

I haven't listened to this song in a quite a while, I had forgotten that little prog section at 6:05-6:48 of this video. Great review as usual and I will always check out any Rush or Yes song you review and visit some of them repeatedly (like Gates of Delirium).

The entire album is one of my favorites. Lyrically, musically, arrangement, instrumentally... one of the best. Regarding the lyrics, you can tell what headspace Neil was in when crafting their records. This one is no exception. It also has some of Geddy's best bass lines ever.

Mission is an underrated gem. Definitely check out either "Fountain of Lamneth" or "The Necromancer" from their album Caress of Steel for a real deep dive. They're not the most popular songs but are fantastic journeys (inspired by Tolkien no less). #nicknlexrequest

Force ten, Open secrets, Second nature, Prime mover, Lock & Key, Turn the page and Mission are great songs. I don't know how this album is so often at the bottom of people's album ranking. Take out the 2 last songs and remaster it and that is a great record. Vocals are on point, the song composition the musicianship is precise and cohesive and arrangements are stellar.... I don't get the hate.

Nick & Lex I knew you would love this song. I Love it some much. Please react to Mission Live 1988. The song Chain Lightning on Presto 1989 album. Neil wrote this song after star gazing with his first daughter Selena in the beautiful Canadian skies. It has cool lyrics and a funky beat. ❤‍🔥

Hold Your Fire is my 2nd favorite album in all music history. This Rush masterpiece is 2nd only to Tales From Topographic Oceans, the masterpiece of all masterpieces.

Actually, some of those "keyboard parts" are actually Alex's guitar. He's using a much cleaner tone on this album with active pickups. Combining that with piezo equipped acoustics ran direct and heavily processed being leyered with the clean electric parts make it nearly undecernible from the synths.

even though the keyboards became more prevalent on his album, lifesons guitar playing enjoyed a greater freedom whereas, before he was constrained by the tropes of rock music. some of the timbres and dramatic solos really make the hair sand up on he back of your neck. throughout the album the bass is great and, of course, the percussion. one of my favorite albums by the band. apologies for grammatical errors, my keyboard is malfunctioning.
