AnEggplant Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Because why not. :) I was thinking 2112 would take this but a surprising number of people rate Hold Your Fire among their favorites. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnEggplant Posted November 24, 2015 Author Share Posted November 24, 2015 For me it's 2112. As a whole it's a pretty decent album. Hold Your Fire is among my least favorites, which could possibly change, you never know. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleMoon Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 2112 by a landslide because it's...2112! HYF is a decent album but it's more pop tunes. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital Dad Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 HYF is the first cd I ever bought. 2112 is so much better it's not even funny. Love HYF though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apetersvt Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 (edited) Even if you removed the epic side one of 2112, I would take side 2 alone in a heartbeat over all of HYF. Edited November 26, 2015 by apetersvt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narps Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Even if you removed the epic side one of 2112, I would take side 2 alone in a heartbeat over all of HYF.Amen. Put side one and two together and there is no contest. There are only 2 or 3 albums better than 2112 and maybe not even that many in my view. Brilliant work it is... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I happen to love HYF for reasons I outlined earlier but 2112 is better in fact its a top tier Rush album and HYF Is in the middle of the pack. U love Farewell while I think it's a middle tier album. That when u came around to Rush. HYF is when I came around. To each their own. Edited November 26, 2015 by Digital Dad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HYF is middle of the pack and 2112 is top tier Rush and my statement makes NO sense? Folks can love HYF and love it more than 2112 I really don't care to be honest it just makes no sense to me personally. I even like HYF but its still worse than anything 74'- 84' in my opinion. It's just my opinion nothing more.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 2112 is a lovely album, no faulting it. But to vote 2112 because it is one of only two albums the media seems to recognise is unfair because I think HYF is a far more beautiful, and emotional, record. Side 2 of 2112 is fun, but feels empty, it gives me nothing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue J Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 As much as I love 2112, HYF for me ^ This. I love 2112- fantastic record, and I believe it was the first Rush album I ever heard from start to finish. But for me, Hold Your Fire is more enjoyable and more heartfelt, through and through.

bluefox4000 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 2112 basically has a high rep because of side 1. side 2 is good but WAY disjointed. to many i just don't like either. Twilight zoneTearslessons(yes was never a fan) HYF is a more unified album. My 2 cents Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
