Wow you don't like Anthem? I would have expected to see Dog Years on the list actually! Well everyone is entitled to there own opinion i guess. trink39.gif

It's not what songs you think are the worst, it's "bad-ass". Don't worry, the thread title made me think that at first, too.

You know it doesn't "sound" badass but La Villa really kicks my ass with Alex's solos and Ged's monster bass mastery and Neil's drum fills!!!!

Especially alongside with the boys in the music video!

Those songs rock!

 

As well as Anthem and By-Tor, those were also mentioned previously.

 

The Priest parts of 2112: Presentation kick major ass as well.

Didn't see it mentioned yet, but "Freeze" from VT always gets my blood pumping. When I first heard it, I wondered if Alex had used a technique commonly employed by Adam Jones (TOOL) but I couldn't find any chatter about it in cyberspace. Great Badass tune, nonetheless

I think its great that Caravan has really found its way into the mix and fast!

 

Add Driven to any of the other lists posted.

Good topic. Strong Rush songage that makes you feel bad-ass. I likey. Thanks to this thread I now have a new setlist, with all earlier songs EQ'd to match MalNar for maximum impact. In order:

 

MalNar (I'll take a shot of this anyday, anytime)

Freewill

BU2B (simply rocks)

Stick It Out

Cut to the Chase (solo!)

Turn the Page (always relevant, play this loud and proud!)

Marathon

2112 Overture/Temples of Syrinx

Cygnus X-1

Big Money

 

runner-ups:

 

Mission (inspiring, but not quite badass energy)

Grand Designs

Natural Science (epic, not bad-ass)

Something For Nothing

Alien Shore (strut to the groove, condescendingly existential)

Manhattan Project

Between the Wheels (slowish, but heavy if you let it)

Territories

Cold Fire

The Spirit of Radio (too happy to be a mean, mean stride)

 

Best listened to loud and buzzed 2.gif
