Lucas Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 (edited) The Debut thru Hemispheres, there's nothing overrated There is no way to overrate music that is that good . . Edited April 27, 2016 by Lucas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eel Yddeg Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 (edited) Rush- None, reallyFly By Night- Title Track (Great, but far from their best. Even on the album, Anthem and By-Tor blow it away.)Caress of Steel- Fountain of Lamneth (Diadects and Narpets section is pointless, Panacea is boring, like the rest)2112- NoneFarewell to Kings- Xanadu (And by that I mean it's merely one of their best instead of their best)Hemispheres- NonePermanent Waves- Spirit of Radio (Great, but far from the best. Even on the album, Jacob's Ladder and Natural Science blow it away)Moving Pictures- Vital Signs (Everyone likes it, I hate it)Signals- New World Man (Ditto)Haven't heard much there on, but Time Stand Still and Available Light are really bad, so I guess i'd put those.

Rick N. Backer Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 For True Rush Fans this one is easy, too. Here's the test: Have casual fans heard it? Then it's overrated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entre_Perpetuo Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Rush: Here Again, great track, but not as great as it's often given credit forFBN: In The End, live version deserves the praise, not so much thisCoS: Lakeside Park, good, but not really great by their standards2112: A Passage To Bangkok, gets old after a whileAFTK: ...well, Xanadu if anything, but you can't overrate that... I forfeitHems: Cygnus Book II, missing the fire of their earlier material and the immediacy of their later material, very very good thoughPeW: ...Freewill if anything, but only cause it gets a little old after some overexposure, still epicMP: Witch Hunt, excellent track, but lacking the immediacy of much of the rest of the record, almost feels out of place in certain ways... But maybe also The Camera Eye...Signals: well, Subdivisions I guess, but only out of moderate overexposure like with Freewill, this thing is still top tier Rushp/g: Kid Gloves or Afterimage, the first is a bit to silly for all its praise, the second, while touching lyrically, gets musically monotonous very fast.PoW: Mystic Rhythms, only because it receives loads of praise versus other songs on an album where every track is pretty dang equal.HYF: tough, I think a lot of the deep cuts here are over praised for being better than the two end tracks, even though they're still pretty good, I don't think they compare to the big hit openers, stuff like TTP, PM, or sometimes Mission.Presto: The Pass, by the band themselves. Lyrical masterwork? maybe. Songwriting masterwork? Not really no.RTB: either Ghost of a Chance or Bravado, too sappy, not enough punchCP: Animate, good, maybe even great, not amazing though.T4E: ...Driven? Just cuz people recognize its greatness and dismiss the rest of the album? Do enough people even like t4e to call anything here overrated?VT: One Little Victory, because people remember this one and like to forget all the rest of the at least as good if not even better tracks on the rest of the albumS&A: Armor and Sword? I dunnoCA: Headlong Flight, b/c people forget how great the entire album is just cuz they think this track is the best, though it is awesome.
