Warthur
Snakes and Arrows Live is a live album where the sheer precision of the band in bringing their material to the stage works against them - it's basically like listening to a rather long Rush mix tape with some applause sounds in it. I have to give it the edge over Rush In Rio and R30, because those are two albums where for whatever reason the crowd sound was allowed to intrude on the music a touch too much for my taste, but at the same time it does feel like the band clocking in, delivering entirely standard and acceptable performances of their material, and clocking out again. Good, sure, but if you're a Rush fan you've heard better live renditions of most of these and the new stuff probably isn't in your top tier of Rush tracks.
