I never liked rush and I never liked nerd or math rock for the overwhelming most part.

It took me for goddamn ever to like Tom Sawyer. And even now, I still only tolerate it. But the rest of Moving Pictures helped make it go down easier.

A few listens of Fly By Night on repeat were what really sold me on them as a group I wanted to listen to a lot more of, and by the time I backtracked to 2112 and Caress of Steel, I was solidly on the bandwagon.

It's definitely an acquired taste that's developed through exposure, though, and a ton of people aren't going to have the endurance for getting to that place.
STG, the first time I heard the intro to "Working Man" (before Geddy began singing), the timbre of the instruments, the way it's mixed...I thought it was Sabbath.

There's a current sound alike band called Crown Lands who had the same producer who worked on those albums. Their last album sounds alot like 2112
Oh wow, I gave some of their stuff a listen and it's great! Really fills that RUSH void

If you're talking about Limbaugh, I completely agree. Even as a rotting corpse, he still sucks.

Rush is too good instrumentallly for me to care about vocals. You don't need a good singer.

Everything from 2112 to Moving Pictures is fantastic. After that it's a slow falloff. (There's some good stuff on the first few albums too but I wouldn't call any of them as good as that streak they have once they really get going though)
Rush is one of my all-time favorites, so while I enjoy largely everything they put out, I do concur that their peak run was 2112 to Moving Pictures.

2112, Permanent Waves, and Moving Pictures are all no-skips, classic records

I think everything up through Grace Under Pressure is worth listening to though

Unpopular opinion: Geddy is an extremely overrated bass player. His parts work for the shitty music they make but everything he writes is boring to play and not overly technical so I don't get why he is so praised.

Hell I'd even say Niel is overrated. Most overrated rhythm section in rock history.

If you want technical proficiency, go play some Dragonforce or some kind of speed metal.

It's technically unlistenable, but it's technically proficient.

Right up the alley of an opinion like that.

"Rush sucks because Geddy's voice" is an incredibly boring "unpopular" opinion.
