Red3angel Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I know if there was a vote moving pictures is going to beat signals by a wide margin. Does anyone agree that signals is an overall better album where musically they seem to be firing on all cylinders? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Signals is great but I don't think it's superior to Moving Pictures musically. MP has the perfect mix of guitar and synth. Signals not as much. I enjoy the synth era but the band is definitely better when Alex's abilities are more on display. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red3angel Posted March 20, 2018 Author Share Posted March 20, 2018 So then why does everyone think moving pictures is their best album? All the albums before it are way more guitar driven. I personally think permanent Waves is better than pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On this site I can say that just as many people like Hemispheres as much as MP if not more. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas King Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Signals is a very good album, but MP(though it's not a pure perfection to me) easily beats it. BTW The Police album Synchronicity also easily beats Signals. :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I remember MP lost to PeW. According to many Rush album polls I saw that Permanent Waves, Moving Pictures and Hemispheres, in that order, are 3 most beloved Rush albums on this forum. AFTK is a close fourth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any case, it’s a great 1960’s album, written and recorded in the unforgettable year of 1929. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick N. Backer Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Signals is the third best album of the 80s, coming in behind 1980's PeW and 1981's MP (not necessarily but quite possibly in that order). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silly is the never ending bs argument of whether it’s a 70s or 80s album. It’s an album written and recorded in the year 1647 which makes it a 50s album.

bluefox4000 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I enjoy Signal quite a bit more.
