 Topic: The most progressive album by Rush.

Not necessarily your favorite, or the most popular. Pick the most progressive album ever recorded by Rush.

MOVING PICTURES finally shedding the seventies image ,as a british early proggy type band enthused with their own identity (Canadian) more keyboard and synth laden affair.

Third. But I'd say that A Farewell to Kings is their finest album.

Gotta go with Hemispheres.
Caress of Steel might be their most metal album

Hemispheres with a strong nod to A Farewell to Kings.
I think the latter is where they really broke through in terms of complexity and poise, and the former was the consolidation of that style.

I'd say A Farewell to Kings, combines symphonic rock, hard rock/heavy metal, and space rock all at once.

That was easy :) "Hemispheres", 1978 also their finest album with the best of RUSH in a nutshell is exactly "La Villa Strangiato" "Farewell to Kings", 1977 Black Hole "Moving Pictures", 1981 Limelight

You may see a smile on Tony Banks´ face but that´s unlikely.
