Almost a pun, but hopefully a better poll? The ratings show it to be a bit one-sided but you either love "Zeit" or hate it really, so might be interesting. Both very underrated albums in my opinion, and 2 very different albums: released almost 20 years apart, one made up of cosmic minimal electronic improvisations, the other a structured heavy sound. "Zeit" just about takes it for me, being a low 5-star, but "Presto" is still one of Rush's best 80s albums, and a solid 4-star for me. Looking forward to what you guys think! I've posted the ratings and album covers below in case you're curious  Presto - 3.14 of 578 ratings Zeit - 3.65 of 227 ratings

Despite Rush being my favourite band i'd pick Zeit over Presto everytime. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

Presto is one of my favorite Rush albums, and vastly underrated. Definitely that one. ------------- Want to play mafia? Visit http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com" rel="nofollow - here . |
