Oh dear.... could you write 'no' without the flashing lights and give us an explanation for your conclusion?

Yeah, that annoying flashing "No" sign gives me a headache and should come with a warning for those suffering from epilepsy.

You guys mental? Rush is not even close to prog rock. They were a pop or blues band at best with a strong fetish for the 7/8 time signature. A bunch of posers worshipped by the Dream Theater loving losers who like to wаnk to unchallenging derivative rubbish.

Okay, there might be such a thing like "progressive" in the most common use and sense. |

quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond

It's unclear to me whether you are joking or being serious here.

That's funny, because I prefer nothing from that first album. It's their wannabe phase. I tired of it because Alex tries to channel Page so hard. I'm glad they got past that. For thick, crunchy, heavy riffs, that's what Tony Iommi and a few other guys specialize in! |

I hid that annoying and potentially seizure-inducing flashing no post. This stuff is out of controll.

I'm not very expert in Rush. I don't dislike them so it could mean that they are quite prog, but they fail to kick with me. I can't say why. Anyway, I think that 2112 and the Plague of Lighthouse Keeper are prog enough so for me it's a yes.

Pretty much the same here. On a side note Genesis have never really pushed my buttons either for some reason, even though I consider them very influential and giants of the genre, in particular the Gabriel-Hackett era. |

A lot depends on the definition but because we now have prog metal (that didn't exist in 1978) we can now consider Rush one of the pre-cursor's of that genre. If we just limit prog to 'The Big Six' for the sake of argument then it was more or less done by 1977 with Pink Floyd- Animals being the last truly great 'traditional' prog album. After this what we call 'Prog' just diversified becoming simpler in many cases mainly because of the punk backlash against prog. (btw I don't consider Jazz Rock/Fusion ''Prog'' at all. It's just too wide an area to be lumped in with prog). In the seventies the term 'prog' was a narrow corridor because there were commercially succesful bands that represented it (The Big Six). In general I can accept 2 strands of thought. A) It was a movement that happened post psychedelic and burnt out by 1977 or B) it was an ethos that started in the late sixties and adapted to current styles and thinking of the times. PA as a site clearly represents the latter and therefore Rush are as important as any Post Rock or Neo Prog band. IMO

I could tell Rush was prog when I was eleven and bought Hemispheres ... and I didn't even know what prog was.
Nice try. |
