This album has some very good songs like Far Cry and Armor and Sword. For older fans Snakes and Arrows will put a massive smile accross your face. On the Iceland charts, superstar Rush’s career stalled before it left the starting gate. This is my first Rush Album and i must say i am blown away.
Armor and Sword make listening to Rush like being in some sort of time warp. I like to sing along with Workin’ Them Angels, though I mess up the lyrics sometimes. Larger Bowl on Snakes and Arrows is solid and easy to listen to. Spindrift is probably one of Rush’s biggest successes for the album - it’s lovely to listen to. Main Monkey Business is the more seemingly obscure song on Snakes and Arrows that bear up best to repeated listening. Way the Wind Blows is almost impossible to review. The song feels complete. Within the first few notes of Faithless it’s perfectly clear that Rush is living this song. Bravest Face as a highlight of Snakes and Arrows contains a ton of marvelous melodies. Good News First is a great opener for Snakes and Arrows. Malignant Narcissism gives good insight into the truths. I was truly moved when I heard We Hold On.
