H. P. L. Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) Now who is Sebadoh, you might ask? Beats me, so let's Consequence of Sound speak: Sebadoh and Rush exist on near-polar opposite ends of the musical spectrum. The former is the unsung hero of nerd-friendly indie rock, purveyor of all things grimy and lo-fi. The latter represents rock’s pinnacle of indulgence, the bona fide lord of intricate prog majesty. Yet for one, brief fleeting moment, these two disparate elements came together as Sebadoh undertook a mighty Rush cover for its appearance on A.V. Undercover.So, why did Lou Barlow and co. decide upon 1981’s ? The “Rush Phenomenon”, in which, by some twist of fate, “the world’s three best musicians ended up in one band.” The cover is.. uh... interesting to say the least... Seems I can't post it here, so here it goes: http://consequenceof...imelight-watch/ Edited November 18, 2014 by H. P. L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReRushed Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) I like it! I give them a A for effort and a B- overall because I think the vocal effect became very annoying, very fast. Edited November 18, 2014 by ReRushed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rushman14 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 some bass would have helped. a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rutlefan Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) Loved it. Here it is from the source: http://www.avclub.co...ers-rush-211953 Some other cool covers; impressed with personal fave "In a Big Country"; studio audience provided a collective "Cha!" This very respectable Canadian cover of a punk standard has a reference to Rush in the beginning, and then a musical tribute at the end ("YYZ" I think)... http://www.avclub.co...uzzcocks-206580 Edited November 18, 2014 by Rutlefan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should give them an A for the annoying vocals. It's a Rush song.. ;) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMCXII Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I kinda gave them an A before they even started playing based on their reason for picking the song! Lol Seriously though, as for the song, all I can say is it is interesting! I don't see too many Rush covers on YouTube where even I could do a better job on the drums but good for them anyway! And Rush is the young female interviewer's favorite band. Didn't see that coming.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just for the record: that is the total opposite of me. I am more likely to talk silly, and nervously burp in her face.

Many regular people know Sebadoh you know; they were a hallmark band in the '90s; maybe not so well-known among sullen computer geeks apparently. Hard to say I suppose. In any event, when Rush was making the krappiest albums in North America in the '90s, Sebadoh was a very "in" band.

I assume you mean boring, banal, uninteresting, run-of-the-mill, and/or people who suck. Or people who are U2 fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rutlefan Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Ah, you would know I suppose. Btw, there's that "Best 25 Metal Bands Ever" thread going on and Rush isn't mentioned once.

savagegrace26 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 And I don't think Rush is one of the 25 best metal bands. Were you the one I was debating this with? Well I don't consider Rush's primary genre to be metal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savagegrace26 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 And why do you assume that I'm some kind of "computer geek"? Because I have to access this website via a computer or a similar device? Wouldn't that make you a "computer geek" as well? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
