"As with a number of their albums, Rush would combine lengthy epic brilliance with some very forgettable shorter tracks (e.g. Tears). The title epic is a classic dystopian future concept song which would be a blueprint for countless later bands, and the album as a whole is a stoner's paradise." (bartyMJ, , 4M ago)
"A great early Rush album, lyrically and musically. It's a shame that some of the choices on the short pieces feel a little weak." (TGM_Orb, , almost 17y ago)
Aggressive Emotional Exp Non-Prog Rock
"It's a shame that the album with what in my opinion is Rush's best song, also has songs that detract from it. The opening track is definitely my favorite song by everyone and has been since I heard it for the first time maybe 6 or 7 years ago (around age 10 or so). With the exception of "2112" and "Something for Nothing", the tracks aren't all that special. Not until their next album would they release a record that was strong throughout. If I were to buy this album already knowing the songs, I'd only be buying it for the title track."
