Rush is one of the best bands ever to come out of Canada, if not the world. As much as we appreciate the Hip for what they can do, which sounds they can produce, and how they have evolved, no band has evolved as much as Rush. Caress of Steel and Moving Pictures are two of the best rock albums EVER... and Neil Peart is a mad man... best drummer of the year from '82-91 according to drummer magazine. Rush gets a bad rap because of their experimentation (especially in the mid to late '80s), but these are three of the greatest muscians in each of their specialized instrumental categories. From Zepplinesque mood rock in the mid '70s to heavy-alternative in 2002 and everything in between (even a rap solo in Roll The Bones) these guys can play and are not over-rated... they are just weird and extremely talented musicians... just listen to Fountain of Lamneth or 2112 and tell me these boys can't play...
