Dont you just hate it when people take offence on behalf of highly successful multi-millionaire artists? I'd never do that.....

Err....Rush for me,but what a choice to have to make! Genesis are brilliant too.

Rush is more consistant then Genesis but When Genesis is on theres no beating them. Rush is more more about the virtuoso and solo ability of the players while Genesis is more about the blending of the instuments, expecially guitar and keyboards and the vocals. Very hard to compare.....

i vote rush

Interesting to see Rush winning over Genesis here. No wonder who wins poll Best Canadien band....

I was trying to figure out what these two bands have in common, and finally realised that both of them released 7 great albums each over 8 years period. And both degraded afterwards with no turning back. Full stop.

Otherwise these two are so different that could be considered being from different planets.

And while Rush to me is simply great band, Genesis is probably most important band in prog music in general, and I love thier music more. So I vote for Genesis.

      I like booth of them.... But I`ll choose Genesis. Musical Box...Dance with the moonlight knight, I love those songs. And from Rush 2112 Overture or Xanadu, excellent!!!

Genesis.
Rush started out as a Zeppelin-esque band who just followed the prog trend. Then they went right back into straight out arena rock type music.
