"I really hear Portnoy trying so so so hard to be like Peart"
i feel like as much as portnoy talks about being inspired by peart, i don't really hear it in his playing very much (besides the giant drum set and his use of auxiliary percussion). he's way more bonham / bruford to me
also hilarious how hugh syme did mostly great artwork for the entirety of rush's career while basically doing all dogshit for dt lmao
Can't express how much I dislike Hugh Syme's work, also not convinced it was particularly great in Rush's case to begin with lol but it's still better than the last decade and a half of DT covers
I can give it to you that they don't have any god awful album covers thankfully, but they're maybe just iconic at best. I quite like the artwork on Hemispheres, Permanent Waves, Grace Under Pressure at least
