Far Cry, the first single off Snakes and Arrows, is up at www.rush.com.

Yes! Just listened to the whole song and for some reason the very first thing that came to my mind on the first bar after the intro riff was "My Favorite Headache" from Geddy's solo album. Got a touch of "Test For Echo" in there, too. According to sources, they were playing this album together as a trio during recording; they are just so damn tight! A great jam session in there as well - it should be a kick ass album!

I'm sure happy that the days of keyboards and soft crap like that is behind us.

I like that site intro. Very cool!

My goodness! The initial response is out of control! The song hasn't been on the website for more than 12 hours and it's already all over the world! The response is outstanding, and it pays tribute to the allegiance of Rush fans all over the globe! You would think that they had just come back from a 20 year hiatus!!!

It's a good feeling and I'm glad to hear them back in the saddle again. While some of us traditional classic rock fans briefly mourned the loss of Boston's Brad Delp, and cringe at seeing Eddie Van Halen check himself into rehab (good luck, Ed!), and roll our eyes at the abomination of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland (what a farce!), we can be thrilled to know that some bands will actually outlive those who bash and mash them and end up with a rabid fanbase that will never leave them! :mrgreen:

Bring on the tour dates! See you at the concert!!!!

We've been playing this song on air for about a week now. It's getting really good response!

Yeah, the buzz is pretty good about the new album. So much anticipation that I'm sure that the album will go platinum pretty quickly!

Good times for Rush....good times.
