My biggest surprise by FAR when I joined TRF was that anyone liked what to me has always been the absolute clusterf*ck disaster that is VT. I still don't get it. Rushgoober.. I.. I.. never knew! You've kept your true VT feelings to yourself so well! Cute response, and funny, but the album is still an embarrassment to their legacy. All I can say is thank God for Snakes and Arrows, and especially for Clockwork Angels, so we can move on from that unfortunate chapter in Rush history... It seems to me you're the one of the few who feels the need to have to move on...we hardly look upon it as anything to be embarrassed about thoroughly enjoying. Well, it IS their lowest rated album (ok, T4E gets a SLIGHTLY lower rating, but it is at the bottom of the barrel): http://www.rateyourmusic.com/artist/rush I do find many hardcore fans to be INCREDIBLY forgiving of this album. I wish I could be that kind, but the album is just a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough - I've yet to have the chance to attend a concert and was hitherto unaware of quite how popular it is. Thanks for letting me know!

Dark Lord von Crayola Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 I don't think I can come up with just ten. Most of their first album, Making Memories, In the End, Side 2 of 2112, Circumstances, Different Strings, Witch Hunt, Vital Signs, most of Grace Under Pressure, and a ton of other songs that aren't coming to mind right now.

goose Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 7. Between the Wheels 9. Making Memories If anything, BTW is way over-rated. It's pretty much their most-celebrated synth song around here. I completely agree about Making Memories. Wish they'd find a way to play it live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going to explain them all, but gotta say that Need Some Love has the most ripping guitar solo over a riff that just pummels you relentlessly. I'm bummed that I never seem to hear anyone give that song some love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
