A band who is extremely underrated however is dissed mainly because of geddy's early voice. however, they have sold the most consecutive platnium albums, survived the 80s and 90s, still play sold out concerts and tours today after 30 plus years, and are right behind Aerosmith and the Beatles in album sales. How are they bad?

Also, Neil Peart's lyrics are amazing and the way Geddy Lee conveys them with his singing is a great combo, and the use of the synths add a great atmosphere and mood to each song during the Synth Era.

I suggest if you wanted to get into rush, start with the Moving Pictures and Permanent Waves album and branch out from there. Power Windows is a pretty sexy album as well..

And they make you proud to be a canadian if you are from canada.. im not but im just saying..

although a lot of people don't realize this, rush is actually a better band instrumentally than dream theater. niel peart is a way better drummer than mike portnoy, geddy lee is a much better singer than the singer of dream theater and geddy's also a much stronger and more innovative bass player than myung, although he may not be technically as good...
rush is god.. is basically what im saying
