• Rush Vapor Trails Review

The Newly Remixed Version Of Vapor Trails And 7-Disc Boxed Set Of Atlantic Studio Albums Both Are Available On October 1 from Atlantic/Rhino (September 30 internationally) In 2009, two tracks from VAPOR TRAILS (“One Little Victory” and “Earthshine”) were remixed for the Retrospective III collection, setting you all into a frenzy in anticipation of a possible remixed version of the entire album being released one day. That time has come. The Vapor Trails Remixed album will be available on CD, Double LP, and digital download on October 1 from Atlantic/Rhino. “Vapor Trails was an album made under difficult and emotional circumstances – sort of like Rush learning how to be Rush again – and as a result, mistakes were made that we have longed to correct.

I recorded the video of me giving a first listen to the newly released remastered version of Rush's Vapor Trails.

David Bottrill’s remixes have finally brought some justice and clarity to this deserving body of our work,” says Geddy Lee. “Every song has been given a new life, from the fire of ‘One Little Victory,’ ‘Secret Touch,’ and ‘Ceiling Unlimited’ to the melodic musicality of ‘Sweet Miracle’ and ‘How It Is’ these songs have been redeemed. Thank you David!” The remixed version of VAPOR TRAILS will also be included in the new 7-disc boxed set RUSH: THE STUDIO ALBUMS 1989-2007, which features every studio album Rush recorded for Atlantic Records. The collection includes the Gold & Platinum albums Presto (1989), Roll The Bones (1991), Counterparts (1993), and Test For Echo (1996), as well as their covers EP Feedback (2004) and the Billboard Top 5 album Snakes & Arrows (2007). THE STUDIO ALBUMS 1989-2007 features each album presented in a wallet sleeve that faithfully reproduces the original artwork (except for VAPOR TRAILS, which features a reinterpreted version of the original cover) and is also available on October 1 from Atlantic/Rhino.

Rush album bestography « Higher ranked (6,599th) This album (10,097th) Lower ranked (12,806th) » Vapor Trails. The production and lack of many 'wow' moments are what sink this album for me. I feel like I'm listening to a giant, distorted Wall of Sound: not good.

Also, there just aren't very many songs that blow me away from start to finish - I mean, I like some of the ideas in 'Ceiling Unlimited', 'Freeze', and 'Nocturne', but they don't pan out all that much. 'One Little Victory' has a great opening but is otherwise uneven due to the strange production. 'Earthshine' is great, though, and 'Ghost Rider' had potential. It all adds up to a below average Rush album (and basically an average album overall).
