The only change this time is bumping TFE up a few spots. Those 10-12 spots could be switched in the future. VT does have 3 or 4 weaker tracks; FBN & TFE not so much. Other than that, I feel pretty certain about this list.

Its fun to see this one keep coming back. I read my post and still agree somewhat. I guess the one thing that never changes is that Hemispheres is always ranked first or second, and Roll The Bones is always my least favorite.

Not listented to Vapour Trails enough to be able to rank it but it would be in the bottom half .

 

The top five or six are pretty fixed.

Everything through FBN on my list is either a 10, a 9.5, or a 9. Also, Vapor Trails jumped several places to sit at #10 on my list; Feedback is not on the list because it's not a proper Rush album.

Using I-tunes, I've given each song an out of 5 rating. I'm going to tally up all the song's ratings and convert them into a percentage to find out what my best to worst list is statistically. This might not be so fair, because with Hemispheres, for example, there are four flawless songs - but I might not like those four flawless songs as much as the 4 flawless songs from AFTK along with 2 decent songs which will weigh the album's overall score down.. Hemispheres will be at 100% while AFTK will be at around 90%. Either way this is a cool idea and I'm sticking with it.

 

here's the list:

 

 

 

1. Hemispheres - 20/20 - 100% A+

2. Grace Under Pressure - 38/40 - 95% A

3. A Farewell to Kings - 28/30 - 93% A

4. Caress of Steel 23/25 - 92% A

5. Moving Pictures - 32/35 - 91% A

6. Signals - 36/40 - 90% A-

7. Presto - 48/55 - 87% B+

8. Fly By Night - 35/40 - 87% B

9. Hold Your Fire - 43/50 - 86% B

10. Power Windows - 34/40 - 85% B

11. Permanent Waves 25/30 - 83% B

12. 2112 - 24/30 - 80% B-

13. Snakes & Arrows - 50/65 - 77% C+

14. Vapor Trails - 50/65 - 77% C

15. Counterparts - 42/55 - 76% C

16. Test For Echo - 40/55 - 72% C

17. Roll the Bones - 33/50 - 66% D

18. Rush 19/40 - 47% F
