SIGNALS

Probably the most underrated Rush album ever. Many who feel the album is weaker than other Rush albums usually say that there is too much synthesizer and not enough guitar but I believe that they fail to realise that it's actually the case that Rush mixed the guitars and synthesizers perfectly on this album! There are some truly classic Rush songs on Signals including maybe the best song they ever created (arguably behind only Tom Sawyer, The Trees or Cygnus X-1). The Analog Kid and Chemistry are hugely overlooked as great Rush songs. Digital Man and New World Man are classic Rush songs that again nicely balance guitars and synth. The closing 2 songs are very good songs, though just a tiny notch below the other songs, still evoke powerful feelings due to Peart's great lyrics. A MUST HAVE album from Rush! 5-stars!
