Queen's debut is a little better and more proggy than Rush is. Why you all making the cover art such a big deal

Rush doesn't stand a chance. Queen is way way better.

Queen for me as well.  Queen II is a remarkable album that seems forgotten by many.  

And, don't forget, "no synthesizers"!!

Rush's debut looks like a Batman TV show caption, and Queen's debut is just a big dump of purple with some guy standing there.

Queen's album cover actually improves when shrunk to CD size, as an LP it's becomes more glaring how boring it really is

Of these two debuts which do you think is stronger. Both wear their Led Zeppelin admiration on their sleeves and both of these albums were released in (somewhat) close proximity to each other.

In my opinion Queen's debut reveals a personality and shows more promise in transcending their influences, while Rush seems to still be "finding their way" on their debut. Plus, song for song, "Queen" is a more exciting record, IMO. What do you think?
