AFTK.

 

Xanadu is the best song...by far. The rest is cool (except Madrigal which is an abomination) but has not aged as well as many other albums.

 

Signals is so freaking good. But now the old guard is out in force and kicking it to the curb.

Damn all of you!!!!!

 

Hemispheres

Permanent Waves

Moving Pictures

Signals

 

 

4 of their 5 very best albums ever.

Gives new meaning to: those who push us down so they might climb.

 

I felt the same when The Deaf Cabal attacked CoS and FBN. And what they are now doing to 2112 and Hemispheres. But it is nothing so sinister...just opinions.

 

I've said many times on here and will repeat it again....

 

I realize this is all in good fun. Who takes this stuff seriously? Do you lose sleep over someone disliking 2112? What anyone else here thinks about the songs/albums that I happen to love means nothing to me.

Might have to join forces and vote for either AFTK or 2112 together to save Signals from the grumpy old fans.

 

You can't keep playing the "old" card to cover up that you have no taste. :LOL:

Well this forum just continues to disappoint me. At least there is the pocket of Pro-Synth people out there still to call companions.

 

My Vote is on 2112. Way over rated.

Naaaa that would be COS. 2112 is a defining moment in the bands history while COS which is celebrated like Moving Pictures by some was the one that almost was the death of our beloved band.

 

Every album left in this poll (except AFTK) for me are all incredible albums and Rush at the very top of their game. I am one of those synth fans too. Rush was brilliant in their refusal to just keep making albums like Moving Pictures. If they did....we would not be here. It would have been over 25 years ago.

I don't care what anyone thinks about Signals. The Weapon is one of THE best songs Rush ever did.

 

I voted for the sappy 2112. :)

 

Sappy? :huh:

Maybe sappy wasn't the right word. How about awful? :joker:

The old talk is hilarious considering the newest album on this list is still over 30 years old. :D

It's time to leave Rush to the 120 year olds!

 

Wernstrom!!! :D

The whole "you're pro synth" thing is just stupid.

 

There's good and bad in pre- and post- synth periods.

 

eg,

 

COS, pre synth, bad

2112, pre synth, good

 

Presto, post synth, bad

Signals, post synth, good

 

I agree that it's flimsy ground upon which to stake one's claim. To wit- I don't agree at all with your particular opinions about those albums, above.

 

And that's entirely the point!

 

:cheers:

Agreed.

 

 

Who'da thunk to modify a posted quote.......

 

I actually agree with that modified post.

What exactly are the problems people have with synths ?

 

The only true organic music is acoustic, anything you hear that is amplified is basically a processed electronic signal, whether it's just te volume, or Alex's effects pedals, etc.

 

Keys are no different in that regard.

 

1. diversity is scary

2. rush fans in the 70s probably got made fun of for being dorks. when rush started making music that "cool kids" could potentially like, I'm sure it was a big big turnoff (but, but, this actually sold COPIES! I can't listen to this), and thats why iron maiden and dio became the new official D&D soundtrack bands when signals came out.

3. the only keyboards acceptable in a rock song are swirling church organs...for some reason.

 

I'm being an ass, but surely you know the real reason why some people like the heavier stuff more than the synth stuff?
