Rush, even if SEBTP is the greatest album ever on PA.

I like a fair few Rush albums with Signals ultimately being my fave..but there are quite a few Genesis albums that I love. The latter it is.

What they both have in common is that they both have their dull patches. But when they get it right they can be as good as anyone around.

The Beatles are one of my all time favorite bands and the first I got into but they would make my top ten but not top five. My top five are: Yes, Rush, Genesis, Pink Floyd and King Crimson.

Rush are great, but I think only Moving Pictures I could compare with the peak of Genesis such as Selling England, Foxtrot or Nursery Cryme. And I'd still take SEBTP over it. I'd also say Genesis are more consistent, I'd take their weak era over Rush's, although both were pretty decent at their worst.

Yeah, I don't really understand the bad rap it gets either. It's obviously not meant to be taken too seriously.

I struggled with this a lot more than I thought I would (even though I started the poll). Traditionally Rush has been my number 2 band (right behind Yes). I've seen Rush four times in concert and Genesis so far only once (that will change in December). So despite that I still felt like I should be voting for Genesis for some reason or at least both equally. Yes and Genesis were the two bands I felt really strongly about and at one point it seemed like I could have called them Geneyes. However, over the years Peart's lyrics resonated with me more and they seemed to be more cerebral than most Genesis after 1980 or so. While I don't mind the pop Genesis and probably like it more than most on here I still probably would go for the 80's Rush over eighties Genesis. Anyway, because Rush were down so much on here I decided to pull the trigger and vote for them which I might have done anyway even though it was very tempting to vote for both equally.

A comparison between Rush and The Police would be more appropriate...

Yikes! Rush v Styx.....Rush v Journey.....Rush v Sabs (Dio years); Zep; Purp (Mach III).....Rush, Mach I v Mach II v Mach III. Can't fight so far above your weight class and still have an entertaining bout.

I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there.....
