Album rankings

Recommended Posts

Gonna have a swing at this again, since nobody really pays attention to the forum games section. Post your album rankings if you can, this should be fun.

 

Mine:

 

1. Counterparts

2. Signals

3. Grace Under Pressure

4. Hemispheres

5. Moving Pictures

6. Clockwork Angels

7. Power Windows

8. Permanent Waves

9. Snakes and Arrows

10. 2112

11. Fly By Night

12. Test For Echo

13. A Farewell To Kings

14. Vapor Trails

15. Roll The Bones

16. Hold Your Fire

17. Presto

18. Caress Of Steel

19. Rush

 

Vapor Trails will probably move up a little bit once I hear the new mix. One Little Victory sounded awesome on Retrospective 3.

can't be done, but my overall favorite will always be hemispheres, and I think their BEST ALBUM, as in the album that has an example of everything good about the band from the past, present and future, is moving pictures. my least favorite is test for echo. and I can't really find too many dull moments from their first album to power windows.

I'll give it a shot:

 

1) Permanent Waves

2) Clockwork Angels

3) A Farewell to Kings

4) Hemispheres

5) 2112

6) Moving Pictures

7) Signals

8) Grace Under Pressure

9) Caress of Steel

10) Fly By Night

11) Vapor Trails

12) Counterparts

13) Power Windows

14) Test for Echo

15) Snakes & Arrows

16) Rush

17) Roll the Bones

18) Presto

19) Hold Your Fire

 

Permanent Waves was the first Rush album I heard, and I still love *every* song on there. Clockwork Angels is giving it a run for the money, although it has yet to stand the test of time.

 

There's some wiggle room in the center of the list so those rankings may not be exact.

 

Presto and Hold Your Fire are definitely at the bottom. They are the reason I stopped listening to the band for years, until they came back to their senses :tongue: The only reason Power Windows scored so high is that I have come to love some of the songs after hearing them performed several times on the recent tour.
