The heaviest Riff - What instant Captures Rush's

[The Rocinante]

duh, virtuality

[thestand]

Driven was the first that came to mind. I'd have to go with that.

[Kid_Gloves]

Temples of Syrinx

[REDDAP]

I'd have to say 2112's Grand Finale, although all of the song is massively heavy.

[Fridge]

By-Tor and the Snow dog

[H. P. L.]

Working Man is so Black Sabbath!!!

[nic2112nic]

Well quite alot of the VT album is quite heavy so I went for Earthshine

[pedro2112]

The Poll is flawed... where is the choice for "Rivendell"???

[xredsectorx]

went with workin' man

 

earthshine came a close second

[Signals1982]

Personally it's Necromancer for me. When it gets really heavy before the last section. Definitely closest to metal there.

[kooma]

Earthshine

[thesweetscience]

My first thought was "Anthem". Its not listed so I will pick the "Overture"

[ElPatron]

What You'Re Doing...voted Time & motion

[treeduck]

Are Rush metal???

 

 

Oh God I love my old threads...

 

 

stop looking at my post like that...

[Mara]

Gotta go with 2112 Finale.

[rushbass]

The beginning riff of Virtuality is actually pretty heavy, if you ask me...

[kittengirl2112]

thesweetscience said this ...oh ...about 2 years ago and I agree - my first thought was Anthem, but it's not listed

I don't know about the heaviest riff, but Geddy's scream at the end of "Cygnus X-1" is very metal.

yes sir

[Weakly Criminal]

[Stormtron]

I was actually listening to Anthem today and thinking how bad ass it is. So much energy...just explosive. That's my pick too.

[Cygnus-x50]

The first that popped into my head isn't on the list either or has it been mentioned, but hyperspace on Natural Science is pretty heavy with an awesome riff.

[Cygnus-x50]

And I just had to take a listen to the song again and can't believe it isn't on the list!!!

There's a 40 choice maximum on here, so even with another 10, there's always going to be people who miss this song or that riff or that crunching rhythm guitar part in a poll like this...

 

Plus I was much, much younger when I did this poll, yes, I was a mere craven youth back then, just a duckling you might say...

Actually it's none of these. It is The Necromancer.

That was exactly my choice.
