Rush are an extremely good band considering they only had 3 members

bump...

I remember this thread :)

no love for rush no more :(

Rush! w00t!

I'm a huge rush fan. :). They're one of the most brilliant bands i've ever heard.

Going back to the Subject of their heaviest song...

I think the intro to "YYz" is the heaviest thing they wrote, but I have not heard all their songs.

From what I have heard One Little Victory is their heaviest :-/

No way, Closer Touch has one of the most badass interlude riffs I've ever heard.

Rush is one of my favorite Classic Rock type bands. I have 2112 and Moving Pictures, plus Fly By Night and Moving Pictures on Vinyl.

Great Band, but terrible pics

Yes, I agree. Besides the heaviest song is "Stick It Out" of of "Counterparts." :cool: The song is in Dropped-D. :amaze:

Actually the song is called "Stick it Out," and maybe this the homophobic rock fan in me but it's one of the lyrical choices that make me less than fond of that song. Rather like the opening line to "Nobody's Hero" off the same album. :lol:

Whoops! I always get that name mixed up. Why do people always think of things like that?!?! I was playing Halo 2 with some friends and everything I said they laughed at because of some stoopid double meaning. :angry:

He does. Neil Young, Rush, and Leonard Cohen make up the holy triumvirate of good Canadian music.

I should post here more often, I really like Rush.

Rush is an awesome band. I'm listening to Moving Pictures right now. Such a great album.

Ive been a fan for a long time but have really gotten into them recently. What cd should i buy?

I've been thinking of getting that. Perhaps I shall sometime soon. I'm listening to "Closer To The Heart".

Good song.

Grace Under Pressure is a good album as well. The Rush In Rio DVD is also very very very good.

I have the DVD. Amazing. Period.

It's crazy how obsessive some of the fans are.

They're just one of those bands where it's either love them or don't listen at all.

I love Rush, man. 2112 changed my whole outlook on the general idea of the "concept" album. their first album, although good, was not as good as the others
and the fact that theyre a three piece is cool and their talent truly shows in live shows. Definetly one of the most talented bands of all time.

[QUOTE=thunderzstruck]Anyone else like Rush? I'm going through a Rush craze right now. Alex is awesome on guitar All 3 guys are awesome on their instruments

Im thinking of buying [I]Permanent Waves[/I] or A [I]Farewell to Kings [/I] next, which one do you guys like better?

[QUOTE=slug]It's crazy how obsessive some of the fans are.[/QUOTE]

simply becouse of Natural Sience and Spirit of the radio, Go For Permanent Waves.


I love Different Stages, Rush is so Awsome Live, it kinda.. Amplifys the feelings in their studio songs..

Rush is the most loveable band ever, its pure brilliance, its technical music, mixed with Emotions, Have an such a widespread style of music that realy cant be labeled, but still have this little elements in it so you can say "this is Rush" Played by people that simply Have it!

The only thing I have of Rush is [b]2112[/b] and I find that the title track is excellent. Very good. And Geddy Lee's voice isn't [i]that[/i] annoying. I also fell in love with his signature bass and plan on buying it in the future.

A reccoment permant waves or moving pictures as your next purchase. 2112 is a great album though

Rush songs mostly sound pretty "geeky" except for Working Man, was there an era for Rush where they generally made heavier songs? I'd like to look into that because their other songs seem too clean.

I just got Chronicles. Great CD.
