This album finds the Canadian power trio honing their synth-laden sound and masterfully pulling off some excellent tracks like the massive capitalist statement 'The Big Money', Cold War mini-epic 'The Manhattan Project' and the musically athletic 'Marathon' which features some career best playing from Geddy and Neil. Why I haven't mentioned Alex is because his guitar lines blend into the synthetic sounds making it increasingly difficult to know where he is. Despite the superb opening act, side two is comparatively indistinct and lacking in memorable hooks? 'Mystic Rhythms' with its dark timbres arrives too late to save the album from being a winning home run and the clinical, precise production does leave the listener a little bit cold.
