This is an album by a group who are comfortable with who they are and what they create. The eight superbly crafted tracks here show how Rush can create short progressive rock tracks, full of excellent playing and intelligent lyrics without falling in to the AOR trap that other long time bands originating in progressive music seemed to do throughout the eighties.
This album contains the tracks 'Grand Designs' and 'Marathon' both of which have been strong favourites of mine for several years.
If you are looking for some of the more far-out prog & jazz rock then this is probably not the album for you, but if you like intelligent rock music, give it a try.
