Not a big Rush fan but I have personally met people older than me over the years who claim this album was what made them lose interest in the band. Literally, they heard "New World Man" on the radio and were disgusted that their fave band was now trying to be The Police.

Hearing New World Man was indeed jarring because it was quite the departure of what came before. For many years afterwards, I considered Signals to be quite a bit different than the previous stuff but as Rush really got into their synth period over the next few years, I realized that it wasn't that different after all. Sure, there are changes but in spots it rocks out as much as anything that cam before. Losing it is the sleeper track. Starts out all synthy and mellow and by the end, it's rocking your socks off
