Rush has never really clicked with me, but Tool is one of my favourite modern bands, so Tool for me.

Never got into Tool (I tried)  Rush for me this poll  ,At this stage in the poll Rush are really taking Tool to the cleaners I'm a little surprised in the outcome as I know Tool has legions of fans , maybe they haven't come out of their woodwork's yet. Tongue

Dang. I can't beleive that Rush is so far ahead. I can understand them winning, but by such a large margin?
 
I'd pick Tool by miles. I find their music more complex, creative, emotional, and overall far more superior. I can't hate on Rush though.

Ah, finally some people who share my opinion!
 
I think we're going to have to separate the 70s-80s bands and the 90s-00s bands to give any modern bands a fair shot.

Just about everything Tool is annoys me. MJK, blech. The mechanicalness, and just about everything about their music... *heaves*

Rush, Tool is great, I've really been getting into them lately..but they've got a long while before they reach Rush's status in prog.
