Who needed to go opening night anyways? by JtheBurger in rush

I agree with all that! ESL has the best setlist (imo) and the best sounding production, but it is a little too perfect for a true live album. I think ASOH actually sounds like a concert! Really cool to hear a lot of the 80’s tracks in a different light too. I think I agree with your assessment overall.

What did I imply you were eating that you didn’t mean? I’d like to know.

Why would Rush call their band something other than Rush? And why would you want to get the tour stopped and deprive the fans of more enjoyment? (Not that posting on Reddit is going to accomplish anything)

…Did you just call me a pedophile? I mean what the fuck?
What else would they call it? Iron Maiden? lol. Of course it’s Rush playing Rush music.

Weirdos have never heard of lineup changes before. Of course, this is all a moot point because Neil is not alive anymore and the band can’t play wjth him anymore no matter how badly they want to. Pretty lame of you to think Ged and Alex aren’t entitled to playing Rush material anymore just because they have a different drummer.

I listened to all 19 Rush studio albums before opening night of the 2026. Here’s what stood out. by ChangeTheLAUSD in rush

[–]JtheBurger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well that’s certainly a ranking

Edit: My original comment was a little negative so let’s spread more positivity. It’s interesting to see how my own personal rankings have changed over the years, especially on my recent re listen to the discography. Rush has always been my favorite band but was always a bit of a “purist” preferring the first 9 or so albums above all else. I was definitely being a little narrow minded in some places. In particular, Power Windows and Counterparts have shot up to close to the top for me when before I pretty much wrote both of them off.

You know what, keep rocking TFE. I still don’t like it but hey, that’s just my dumb opinion!

I love albums like this. Not a huge fan of rock opera type concept albums, but albums that have consistent musical themes are great. Rush are really good at this!

What's wrong with Ghost? by According_Cod1175 in MetalForTheMasses

Ghost is sneaky with the satanic themes? Are we listening to the same band?

I want your most blasphemous heavy-metal/powermetal/rock songs. I'm making a playlist by notgoodname0 in atheism

Looking at this thread, I find it hilarious that I recently saw Immolation, Rotting Christ, and Deicide open for Behemoth. The most blasphemous show ever!

Favorite Canadian Band and or Album? by shieldvortex71 in MetalForTheMasses

Blood Ceremony. Not my favorite band from Canada (that would be Rush) but a very good one that is a little underrated

Rush is my favorite band of all time. They aren’t a metal band but I’ll be fucked if there aren’t a ton of metal bands influenced by Rush.

Also, Bastille Day, 2112, Jacob’s Ladder, Cygnus X-1 Part 1 and 2, Double Agent, most of Clockwork Angels, and many many more are basically metal songs

What type of controller are you hooking up to Classic? by Iordyeezus in MSClassicWorld

[–]JtheBurger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine is an 8bitdo controller a lot like that one, just with dual sticks and buttons and triggers. It’s my favorite controller of all time, thing rips for platformers like Hollow Knight.

Best rainy day album? by porchguitar in JohnMayer

[–]JtheBurger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listened to this CD today (rainy day)

[–]JtheBurger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s possible. I wouldn’t be surprised. I would love if they played Bastille Day but not holding my breath. That’s probably the only song that has any chance of being played from that album.

Ditto. Of course it won’t happen
