Bloody brilliant, isn't it?

When the **** will Rush finally come to Australia?

Yeah, really enjoy their live albums, although their studio albums don't do as much for me (admittedly I've only listened to 2 or 3). Neil Peart is a great lyricist.

Would certainly go and see them live if they toured.

I can see where you're coming from. Which albums have you heard?

Only Snakes and Arrows, Clockwork Angels, and Roll the Bones. Don't mind the latter, especially the first half of it. Will have to look into some of their earlier albums.

If only I could make you a mixed CD. Do you have Spotify on your PC?

Yeah have Spotify. What are 2 or 3 albums you'd suggest?

Cheers FC. Some of those you've listed are among my favourite tracks from the live albums I have (Red Sector A, Nobody's Hero, Driven, YYZ, Animate). Will check the others out, especially Entre Nous

My favourite Rush albums are Counterparts, Test For Echo, Presto, Permanent Waves, and Clockwork Angels. I'm too greedy to pick just one favourite.

Have fun!

Where has all the love for Rush come from in the past few years?
They weren't ever on my radar and in recent times there's been a huge rise in interest in them.

I know what you mean, Dogwatcher.

The first time I heard Rush was in my early high school days, and a mate's old man was a huge Rush nut. He'd play nothing but Rush in his home, and I thought they were ******* geeky at the time. Mind you, all I'd listen to was punk, metal and grunge stuff back then.

It wasn't until I lived in Canada (where Rush seems to be on the Classic Rock stations every 10 minutes), that I began to see the appeal. I expanded from only hearing the commercial stuff (Tom Sawyer, Limelight), to experiencing the whole back catalogue. I'm hooked.

Same. First heard them in the late 70s and was really hoping they'd gone away.

Broken Twin - May










I Killed The Prom Queen - Beloved


Simone Felice - Strangers

Been smashing these two:

Thanks mate! I consider that soundtrack almost a 'lost' Fantomas album.

Abso - ******* - lutely!

What do you think of Mondo Cane?

Not bad, supposedly there were two albums worth of material recorded but here we are four years later and it still hasn't come out but if the speculation is true that Faith No More are working on a new album I'd certainly take a new FNM album over another Mondo Cane one
