AnEggplant Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 If you could only have one or the other but not both, would you rather have the synth era or Hemispheres? I know if I put any one of the synth albums against Hemispheres it would be demolished, but what about all of them together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnEggplant Posted December 6, 2015 Author Share Posted December 6, 2015 For me it's Hemispheres. I do like Grace Under Pressure but it's no Hemispheres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babycat Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Hemispheres, though I like both. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Surprisingly tougher than I thought. But I have to go with Hemispheres. I will miss Signals and GUP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclonus X-1 Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 I'd take any of the synth-era albums over Hemispheres. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleRushmonkey Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Even though Hemi is my favourite album I think I'll have to say Signals, P/G, PW and HYF. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleMoon Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Hemispheres most definitely but the last few years I have developed much more of an appreciation for the synth era. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Grace Under Pressure and Hold Your Fire. Hemispheres, Signals and Power Windows are barely even a regret in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueschica Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 I am much the same as EagleMoon. It would have to be Hemispheres, but synth era fans comments and lobbying have made me resolve to listen to the synth era with fresh ears in the new year! :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toymaker Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Hemispheres runs over Signals, then it runs over Grace Under Pressure, then it runs over Power Windows and Hold Your Fire, then it reverses and runs over the last two just to make sure. This is from someone who actually likes all of those albums. But Hemispheres is the grandultimate high-cosmic gorgeous savagery of chops and finesse and musical screaming glory. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocket ignites Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Signals + GUP would almost be enough, but adding some cherry picked songs off of PoW/HYF takes the cake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hemispheres is the red Barchetta and the other albums are the alloy air car. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Hemispheres is not only the pinnacle for Rush, made at the height of their creative powers, but it is also one of the greatest albums ever made . . Easy one 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
