Geddy's Soul Patch Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 The only band that could potentially beat out Rush for me is Tool (and I'm sure they will surpass Rush once their new album comes out). Other than that there's not really any competition, but The Mars Volta and Magma come pretty close Tool? I forgot about them...I used to enjoy 10,000 Days a lot. Yeah that album is awesome. I don't know if you've ever heard Lateralus, but that's their magnum opus in my view 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod in Toronto Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 None. But VERY close seconds for me are Maiden, Zeppelin, Dream Theater and The Police. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocket ignites Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Nobody. King's X might of come close back in the early 2000's when they were putting out albums...then they started in the direction of too many side projects imo...although they all put out some strong solo material.

LittleRushmonkey Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 There are 0 bands I like more than Rush. I would say that my quite close second would be Fair To Midland but I don't think anything could surpass Rush. They are just too good and their music is so original and different throughout their career but still recognisable as :rush: . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lachrymal Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Tool. Their music is just perfect for me, I love it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital Dad Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Nope. Rush has been and remains at the top. Close runners-up: Iron MaidenFoo Fighters Other favorites: Joe BonamassaDef LeppardLed ZeppelinStyxPink FloydBuddy Guy Current addiction: Gary Clark Jr. My own runners up tho I have said this beforeGenesisPeter Hammill/VDGGYesMaidenMarillion (both eras but espcially Fish era)Billy Joel And then tons of prog and jazz. I love some Mainstream bands like Pearl Jam and the occasinal AOR/classic rock stuff but more on the Allmans/Dead kinda stuff. Seen a ton of Phish shows but I never rarely if ever listen to them. From about '96 to 2000 I was a totalJam band head. If I had to listen to any it would probably be Widespread Panic. I love jazz but had my jazz period from about 96 to about 2004. Ornette Coleman, Eric Dolphy, Mingus, Miles and Trane anything on Blue Note or Impulse from '57-'65. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if you've ever heard Lateralus, but that's their magnum opus in my view I never checked them out properly because when I was 16 I couldn't find their albums. Cool I will check it out! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He sounds like his larynx got run over by a semi. Joe Bonamassa does a really cool interpretation of Jockey Full Of Bourbon, though.
