see what www.progarchives.com, calls them?
boy does this describe this forum!!!
They get slated a lot in prog circles, but this is mainly
due to their fans who tend to get stuck in a rut when
they find Rush and think nothing could ever compete.
This is nonsense of course but Rush have made
some fantastic music. I honestly think there's not a
bad track on any album up until Presto. This, for me
was the start of their decline. I was very disappointed
with Counterparts ... their worst ever. Get *anything*
other than the last 3 (even then, with the exception of
Counterparts, they're ok). A great, great band that
contains brilliant musicians. I know Peart's lyrics are
pseudo-everthing garbage but the music is so good
-cut and paste
I dont hate them, but when I think of progressive rock
I certainly dont think of RUSH. I personally think there
is a debate for all three choices.
pseudo-everthing garbage lyrics(and that ratboy
voice) is the problem.
