 Topic: "Hemispheres" by Rush
Posted: November 09 2004 at 12:23 |

The epic doesn't seem to have enough depth, it may be just a production thing but after the first couple of times I listened to it it didn't really hit me, certainly compared to part I on A Farewell to Kings.

Yes, and only 4 songs. 2 of which were quite long however.

ah a racial slur - how droll and how profoundly typical of a little Englander - probably still convinced you have an empire.

Okay....geez...just having fun...I really don't think Rush is THAT bad. They are talented musicians no doubt. I just have a hard time with the voice.

Give credit, where credit is due... Regardless of what you think about Rush, you have to admit, these guys can play... Enough flogging the dummy!

I love Geddy Lee! I think he's one of the most talented musicians ever... his bass work is awesome, and even if he isn't Keith Emerson or Rick Wakeman, its cool to see him handle bass, synth, and vocals onstage all at once, he's really half the band...

whether you appreciate him or not, anyone who can sing, play bass, AND play keyboards at the same time and not f  k it up on stage deserves some respect.
