ACCEPT Humanoid : new album review!
The reimagined artwork looks incredible, especially for 'Roll the Bones' with the little boy sitting on top of the dice! "Show Don't Tell" was on the radio a couple of days ago and it's still a dang great song! The 'Presto' album holds up well.
The reimagined artwork for Roll The Bones & Presto are my favourites. I think all 4 albums hold up really well, but Presto is definitely the front runner. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🤘 Cheers from Canada
@@darcysixstringsninelives3493 Yeah, the reimagined artwork for 'Presto' and 'Roll the Bones' are my favorite too! I don't own 'Test for Echo,' but I really enjoy the other three albums. Cheers to you, as well!
Nice video and box set. Thank you. I’m only missing Roll The Bones and Counterparts from the 2015 Analog Production QRP pressings. 😢. Hoping that these would get individual releases also. This 180 and 200 gram thing is a bit of a marketing ploy to me. It’s more about the mastering and pressing quality, but those heavier records do feel nicer in hand from the thiner flimzy ones.
Definitely a marketing ploy & the leading cause of seam splits lol. I’m pretty sure you’ll see these get released individually, also a second vinyl set with 2002 to 2007 I’m sure will happen. Thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching 🤘 Take care ~ Darcy
I'm with you on The Spider's Lullabye and Killing the Dragon are underrated gems! Also real nice score with those sealed WASP cassettes.
In my opinion Presto and Counterparts is two of Rush's greatest albums. They are definitely two of my personal favorites. Great box set Darcy take care brother.🙂🍻🤘
Blow Up Your Video sounds like Geordie 👍
Cool box set. Can’t go wrong with Rush. One of the rare bands who never made a bad album in their career.
What an incredible run they had! I love how they changed things up every decade, true legends! Have a good weekend 🤘 Cheers Andrew
Hi Darcy!!! had no idea about this new Rush boxset, but i think it's a must have to any diehard fan...... i don't know how they do it, but all of their latest anniversary reissues are near perfect, very well done, cool packaging and extras too, like those alternative artwork covers. This must be the standard to any future special edition done by any "important" band..... cheers and be well
Darcy did you see King Diamond cancel more tour dates. Guess i was lucky in salt lake. Wonder what is up?
Yes 3 more shows are toast! I’m pretty sure it’s lack of ticket sales, I could be wrong. I’m happy you got to go 🤘
As a Rush fanatic all I care about is how is the record quality sound wise? All these reviews skip this important piece of info!
@@jch5150 Like I said they sound good to my ears, unfortunately I don’t have any originals to compare them to. Also, like I said in the video they sound just as good as the 2015’s & and possibly better than The Rush Remasters cds, although maybe that’s me convincing myself they sound better because they are on vinyl lol. Regardless this is a winning set for any rush fanatic 🤘 Cheers from Canada
1. Too fast for love 2 Shout at the Devil 3. Dr. Feelgood 4. Girls, Girls, Girls 5. Theater of pain 6. Mötley Crüe '94 7. New Tattoo 8. Saints of Los Angeles 9. Generation swine
Thanks for sharing your ranking 🤘Now that they have re-issued the shit out of the first 5 I’m wondering if they’ll do anything with the last 4.
Thanks for the reply dude, yeah I hope they do, those albums are hard to find for a good price. @darcysixstringsninelives3493
Great video as always, Darcy! With Judas Priest, Saxon, Accept, DragonForce, and Accuser all releasing new albums here in 2024, it's been a fantastic year. And I think 2025 has a chance to be even better! The ones I'm most looking forward to are new ones from Death Angel, Testament, Exodus, Sodom, Destruction, Dream Theater, and Candlemass. Also, Blitz has said that Overkill will spend the first half of the year writing their 21st album and will likely record the album during the back half of the year, so we will likely see it in early 2026.
Yes I watched a great interview with Blitz on The Metal Voice, this will also give D.D. time to fully recover from his shoulder issue. Thanks as always my friend 🤘 Bring on 2025
Great video Darcy. There is no bad Rush album. Love those reimagined artwork; the presto in particular
I know right! Presto & Roll The Bones are my favourite of the reimagined artwork. Thanks for watching and thanks for the kind words 🤘 Take care ~ Darcy
I’m very pleased with this boxset. I have original Presto and Roll the Bones. But I have been looking for Counterparts and Test for Echo as they are incredibly expensive. The new vinyl sounds amazing. As good or better than the originals. The biggest surprise to me was how much I enjoyed Test for Echo because it was always one of my least favorite Rush albums. Very happy!
I’m that way too Doug! I’ve had the cassette & cd for years, but as soon as that vinyl comes in it’s like a whole new experience lol. Thanks for watching 🤘 Cheers from Canada
I got one from the rhino website a few weeks ago. Possibly was going to get a second box but they just sold out 😢😢
Holy crap that sold out fast! I’m glad you got at least one. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🤘 Cheers from Canada
Hey brother, I'm looking forward to a good chunk of albums next year! Confirmed: Testament, Exodus, King Diamond (I'll believe when I see it), Anthrax, Killswitch Engage, All That Remains, Machine Head, Black Label Society. Speculated: Megadeth, Sodom, Kreator, Paramore, Rise Against, Forbidden, Guns N' Roses, Limp Bizkit, Soulfly. Cheers man
A shit load to look forward to ha ha. Bring on 2025 🤘 Stay Heavy ~ Darcy
Hello Darcy 👋 nice unboxing and review video 👍 very complete and well done 👌. I also have recently started a vinyl collection of Rush legacy, listening more deeply their music. The 40th anniversary releases of their main albums are very good editions, even if the super deluxe boxsets are mostly expensive. Well I bought the 5 LP boxset of Moving Pictures and I’m waiting for the super deluxe boxset of Permanent Waves from USA 😁🤙. Great stuff ! I just received my boxset of those 4 albums from Rhino and I enjoy it fully like you. Even if I would appreciate a few pages book with it, of some informations and photos, and that the illustration artwork would be directly printed on the box rather than a glued sheet. Whatever it’s a wonderful boxset and nice new artworks, plus the enjoyable music on vinyl 🤘. I consider Rush and Dream Theater as the two greatest progressive metal/hard rock bands. By the way Rhino also released a similar boxset of the 4 first DT albums a few months ago (also in my collection 😁😅). Two others volumes are planned for 2025. Thanks for your super channel 👌. Have a nice day ! Greetings from France 👋🤘
Thanks for the kind words & awesome comment 😊 You’re right! A few page booklet would have been nice. I’m just hoping for a second box with the balance of The Atlantic Years 2002-2007. Thanks again 🤘 Cheers from Canada
The last command is #1 of course.Intro from Jack Action is most heavy and most powerful intro.Hi from Bosnia,Samir.
Great choice! I love that album! Thanks for watching 🤘 Cheers from Canada
I grew up near Cleveland, Rush was huge! 2 of the best things to come from Canada is Rush and this channel.
Wow! That’s one of the nicest comments I’ve ever got, much appreciated. Couldn’t do it without you 🤘 Take care ~ Darcy
Power Windows to Roll the Bones was myleast favorite period of Rush i really disliked the synth years,they grew on me eventually though.Still never missed a show since 79
@@johnord684 So cool to hear you didn’t miss a show since ‘79, that’s a streak to be proud of! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🤘 Cheers from Canada
As for your copy of Presto, yes that is a copy of the original inner sleeve , lyrics and art work
Thanks for letting me, much appreciated 🤘 Cheers from Canada
Absolutely love those albums and that reimagined art is fantastic
I think it is so cool they included those, such a nice touch! Hope all it good your way 🤘 Cheers Tim
I´m more like a 70s Rush guy, I could never get into their 80 records. They got better again in the 90s and 2000s. BUT: For some strange reason "Counterparts" is my fave Rush album of all time. Those reissues of "Presto" and "Roll the Bones" look like the original pressings, same inners and same center lables. I had those two on vinyl but sold them not too long ago. Trust me, I got a good price for those, hahaha... For the whole week I had "All the World´s a Stage" on in the car, that will be changed tomorrow to Scorpions "Tokio Tapes".
I think you told me that before about Counterparts being your favourite Rush album. I listen to that set twice in full, now I’ve switched gears to some German Metal. Listening to Brainstorm Scary Creatures, goes good with my 9 ounces of red wine 🍷 Cheers brother
Rush was a part of my life, bought the original vinyl from Rush the debut and later some on cd. That box looks awesome! Their performance on Pinkpop in Holland was unforgettable. So good to hear your enthousiasme about these boxes. Love Canadian bands, in those days Rush, Triumph, Max Webster, Goddo. Last week I saw Mystery a progrock band and they were so good!
@@hermangeritz So many great bands have come out of Canada, but Rush have always led the way for me. They’re an incredible live band that’s for sure! Thanks as always 🤘 Cheers Herman
Great video showcasing one of the greatest bands ever. I was on the fence as you know, but now I’m just about convinced. lol. Prints look great, I have originals of presto and bones, inserts are the same I’m 99% sure but the center labels aren’t. I don’t have counterparts or test for echo. . Thanks brother, and your ranking is my ranking of the 4, with presto out in front by alot, great record. Stay well friend. 🤘
I knew you just needed a little nudge off the fence 😂 Cheers brother
Pretty awesome Rush boxset, Darcy.
Thanks Tony 🤘
Nice looking box set. I had no idea it was coming out. It's an era I've not much experience of. Those inserts look classy to put up in a frame.
@@sixzerothreeonesevensixnine I have some wall space left, I just don’t want things looking too cluttered. I might need an opinion from a picky bastard, do you know anybody that can help 😂
@darcysixstringsninelives3493 😂😂😂 Oh I like that one
Roll the Bones would be my favorite from those albums.
@@boscocfh Great choice! Thanks as always 🤘 Cheers Robert
Really pissed, ordered mine from Rush Backstage, arrived yesterday here in the Uk, but Test for Echo has the first disc duplicated (no disc 2 sides C & D) I contacted them, but because it’s sold out, they can only offer a refund 😔
Oh man!! What a piss off, I feel bad for you. I know it sucks to send something back, but maybe take the refund, there are still some available at Rhino Records Shop. Not sure what you should do, I just want it to work out for you 🤘 Cheers from Canada
@@darcysixstringsninelives3493 Cheers, thanks for the heads up 👍🇬🇧
Like you say mate… every year has been a good year for Metal… especially in the last decade imo. There’s quite a few releases you showed there… that I still haven’t picked up… I just can’t keep up with them all Darcy, lol. Good to see you brother🤘🏻
It would 100 of our best guys to keep up with all the new releases lol. I forgot to mention the new Hail Of Bullets EP, I’m sure you know about it, thanks again for getting me onto those guys 🤘 Cheers brother
Looooove the prints!,
They are first class, Rush does nothing half assed! Hope all is good your way 🤘 Cheers Mark
Do you know if this boxset it’s release in cds
It was a few years back, The Atlantic Years Studio Albums 1989-2007. That set includes all 7 Atlantic studio albums, 6 studio & 1 covers album. It’s a good set for the price 👍
Awesome box set. You just put me in the mood for some RUSH 🤘 🇨🇦!
In The Mood ha ha, was that accidentally on purpose 🤣 Cheers Speedy
I feel like an idiot...hahaha. I bought some of these as bootlegs cause I didn't think they'd get reissued anytime soon.
My philosophy has been everything will get re-issued eventually. So far it’s worked out, plus I have Official phobia of anything Unofficial 😂 Cheers Steve
Nice set but I wasn’t so lucky on the shipping - a few of mine had minor splits on the spines. I hate that lol
I’m sorry to hear that! I’ve always said the records should be shipped outside the jacket, I wouldn’t even care if the box had shrink wrap, just as long as the jackets were in good condition. thanks for watching 🤘 Cheers from Canada
Hey Darcy. Great video. I just ordered that myself 2 days ago! Great ranking. My mini ranking would be. 1) Counterparts 2) Test For Echo 3) Presto 4) Roll The Bones I ranked them in that order due to more guitars. I'm with you on getting the other albums that followed. Cheers
Thanks Bobby 🤘 I should’ve explained it better in the video, The Atlantic Studio Albums 1989-2007 was a cd box set only. Good to see they are putting them out on vinyl, probably doing two parts to keep the cost down. Bring on 2002-2007 :))
Hello Darcy!I love this season Rush. My Top: 01. Counterparts 02. Test For Echo 03. Presto 04. Roll The Bones
Hey David 🤘 Glad you loved it!
Very nice boxset. Unfortunately it is not released in Europe as far as I know. So it is not available to order at any of my usual stores, if it was I would have had it by now. I’ve got an OG of Presto pressed in Germany. Innersleve looks the same, but center ring is the orange Atlantic one. Take care!🤘
@@niklaseriksson7569 I hope you can somehow get a hold of one, you’ll love it! Thanks as always 🤘 Cheers Nik
@ Thanks. Looked up Rhino and they can ship to Sweden. Unfortunately, it’s out of stock now.😕 Will have to look at the used market.
@ I just saw this morning that Rhino is sold out too! Wow those didn’t last long.
All I got to say is I love anything RUSH!!👍👍
That’s The Spirit (Of The Radio) George 👊
My ranking this albums : 1 Roll The Bones 2.Presto 3 Counterparts 4 Test For Echo

King Diamond has been way too long. Totally ridiculous!!! Saw the new W.A.S.P tour. It was😊 amazing hearing that whole first album. I was in heaven!!
Not a weak track on that album, so cool that you got to hear them live. Thanks as always 🤘 Cheers from Planet6Strings
I've drastically cut down on buying albums prices were the main reasons. Love Accusser. Destruction just released a 12" single on vinyl. Primal Fear always a must buy. New Brainstorm coming. I have that King Diamond my one and only. Loved Ballistic, Sadistic. We need those re-issues. Herman the great. That Armored Saint is hard to find now, especially 1st pressing. I thought I read Todd is coming out with new one in 25. Well done.
I need to check out more from Brainstorm, I only have 2 on cd. Exactly 3 years ago they announced those Annihilator reissues, let’s go already! Hope you’re not getting this shit weather, time to bust out my snow blower from storage 🥶 Cheers Kevin
@@darcysixstringsninelives3493 thanx, for Accu§er update just ordered it.
Always enjoy your look forward to the next year,Darcy. Some big bands should hopefully be bringing new albums out. 🤘🍻
Great ranking Darcy. Piece of mind is also my favourite, and it was the first one I bought on release day, 10 years old. I try to pick up everything they reissue and was really looking forward to a 40th anniversary of Piece Of Mind. I was quite disappointed when they chose to only release a Anniversary Art Book. It’s a nice book, don’t get me wrong, but I’m one of those fans who wants a deluxe version of a vinyl or cd or boxset of both. More happy with the 40th anniversary release of Powerslave. Take care!🤘
I was disappointed too & yes I am one of those fans, I’ll buy it all lol. Thanks as always 🤘 Cheers Nik
