I can't tell what album I love the most. I think Caress of Steel is highly underrated.
Farewell... as well as Fly by Night and 2112 rulez ! And many others...
And at the end, I enjoyed very much the newest live DVD R30

I've always loved 'Caress of Steel' It doesn't seem to be a very popular album.

Never really thought about it. I'm a big Rush fan..
Maybe it's because they're too light for many metal heads and too metal for many proggers. Then there's Geddy Lees voice to contend with, which is not everyones cup of tea. Personally I've always liked it and thought it only got better with age. I dont think all singers can boast that!

I find Rush the greatest band of all time. :> Well, maybe I'm a newbie-fan, 'cause I've listened to Rush only for about a year and a half, but in that time I've heard songs from almost their every album, and I must say that I still haven't heard a poor Rush song. Maybe some of them aren't that good, but none of them sucks totally.

I totally agree with Slippery on the first post. Just the hard core. Since I first heard Rush, I have seen them as very STRANGE in terms of harmonies and spirits. They don't belong to (hard)blues, new wave or punk in full sense either.

I discovered Rush about two years ago, and although I am not a fan, I do
enjoy them from time to time

They are overrated indeed, and I don't like them at all.

I think Rush are a very good band. However, I think they're are VERY overrated sometimes!!

I've found that Geddy's voice drives most people that don't like Rush away.

NOBODY likes Rush? They've been around for 30 years and they're still selling out major venues. I don't think you can say that about any other prog artist.
That's like the old Yogi Berra line about a New York restaurant: "Nobody goes there anymore. I'ts too crowded."

yeah, majority of the members love that album, including me.
try Counterparts or Hemispheres, just a suggestion. |
I like Hemispheres the most out of all the CD`s rush have made infact its in my top five prog CD`s of all time and counterparts is also a worthy mention , I consider that to be one of Rush`s finest modern recordings
