Second Life Syndrome had some okay moments.. particularly "After" and just the general background atmosphere wasn't terrible. Just didn't get into this album like a lot of other people did.

Pretty Much Anything By Emerson Lake and Palmer - Good Drummer.
From the Beginning and Lucky Man are the only two ELP songs I like, and even though I like them, I'm gonna guess Lucky Man is the most unoriginal prog song ever composed. But at least Palmer has chops.

I didnīt cut myself in any serious way when handling it.
Thatīs about the nicest thing I can say about "Metal Machine Music" Pretty much sounds like the raping of several electrified seagulls recorded in an elongated hollow trash bin with an obese - out of breath type of dude huffing and puffing like a satanic marathon runner.

Perhaps you could consider giving Lake a break--he wrote it when he was, like, 12. . .

Bahhh ... if that's the case, I would have a lifesized poster of the following on my wall!
Capability Brown - Voice
Quatermass
Flash (the first album -- even though the music is not half as good looking as the cover itself!)
A Nice Pair
Amon Duul 2 - Wolf City
As for saying something nice about ... I can't really think of anything that I don't like ... I just don't listen to it, and I would say some of the over hyped 70's bands are usually the case. Not the proggy ones we mention but some of the others that got enough PR to make themselves bigger, and I never really thought that they were any better than a pop music band. ... that's my fun category for Rush!
