I hate them with a passion! Geddy Lee's vocals just make me want to murder them all. I know musically they're good, but Geddy is one vocalist I have never been able to enjoy, or even get used to, or even listen to for more than a few songs without wanting to stab my eardrums with a pencil. BAH!

rush aren't nu-metal enough for Eyesore.. :wink:

my favourite Rush release is Hemispheres, mostly for the epic title track. they have about eight albums which I consider good or great, though, including Vapor Trails which is relatively recent.

Hahaha! DIE! :evil:

:wink: I would actually probably really like Rush if it weren't for Geddy Lee, he is just a huge wall I can't seem to get around.

Rush is fucking great, and i think Geddy is great vocalist and an amazing bass player, my favourites are : 2112, hemispheres, moving pictures and a farewell to kings

Good band.

I think SIGNALS, A FAREWELL TO KINGS, and2112 are probably my favorite albums. I haven't heard much else by them, except for their greatest hits, and every song on that is amazing.




"Subdivisions" is my all time favorite Rush song.

Can anyone recommend a good album to start with? Rush are one of those bands that I like individual songs that I've heard, but haven't got any full albums yet.

Steel and Signals.

Caress of Steel is awesome:Bastille Day is so glorious,and Fountain of Lamneth is so underrated!A great song,very Led Zeppelin-ish.

Signals is also very good,but sounds like a completely different band!Subdivisions,Countdown ,Analog Kid and Loosing It are great!

Agreed. That's how I started (recently) and it worked.

I'm a Rush n00b.

One of my favorite live performances must be disc 3 of "Different Stages/Live" The way they open with Bastille Day is just bloody amazing! For anyone who enjoys live performances, get that album! That 3rd disc still amazes me.

A couple days ago i caught a thing on VH1 classic, it was called R:30. Basicly just a live show but when they came out on stage they went into this incredible riff medley thats had to have lasted 10 minutes that was a collection of incredible riffs from a variety of songs they weren't gonna end up playing.

I was enthralled with how awesome it was.
