They're both great, yes. But you're missing the point. In a historical turn of events, I'm actually preferring KC over Tull right now.

Jethro Tull                                         33
King Crimson                                    21
Rush                                                  0

All I will use this thread for is pwning Rush and other overrated bands.

Jealousy is the only reason you guys would call Rush over-rated.  

Rush was going to clean up except for a few who decided to simply pull an under-handed powerplay.

Vive' Rush!


Still kicking out great music! On tour again in '09 because of fans who know what good music is. And there will be another new album after that. Tull/KC? Good bands but still in the minors compared to the Fab 3 from Canada.

That. And boredom. I was listening to The Camera Eye at the time

Heh. I think about the same number of people caused Rush's downfall as propelled it to the top.

To be fair, I'll vote Rush when they release Caress Of Steel II, and/or they fix Cygnus X-I Book II.

And exactly how many other bands can you think of where Hammill's voice would actually fit?

Hm. Fish Marillion is Hammill lite (bit of exaggeration there, but the influence is obvious), so that's one. I'd actually be surprised if his voice couldn't actually fit quite a few progressive bands. The issues would be his lyrics and vocal phrasing, which could both be kept in hand without too much difficulty.
