2112

No no no no

Creo que no es mi estilo pero se le puede dar otra oportunidad.

Prog rock is anything but prog

Bang head till it bleads

2112 is simply not for me. Clocking in at over 20 minutes, the titular track is an epic journey that ultimately feels bloated and self-indulgent. The overuse of repetitive riffs and meandering instrumental sections makes it a chore to listen to. The rest of the album doesn't fare much better, with forgettable tracks that lack the energy and creativity that I had expected from Rush. NUMBER OF BANGERS - 0 STAND OUT TRACK - None

Como se dice habitualmente de este grupo: o los amas o los odias. Rock progresivo, heavy, virtuosismo, temas que extienden minutos y minutos para disfrute de sus instrumentistas... Puedes darte la oportunidad de hacerlo (o ahorrártelo) , mejor que con este, con Moving Pictures (78) o Hemispheres (81). Comienza con una suite de 20 minutos, si eres capaz de disfrutarla aún te queda bastante goce, sino déjalo porque la cosa se pone peor... Otros discos de 1976, desde luego infinitamente mejores que este: Songs in the key of life, Hotel California, Love to love you baby, Desire, Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, el directo de Peter Frampton, Jailbreak, Station to station, Arrival, Black and blue, Fly like an eagle, The year of the cat, los debuts de Boston, Modern lovers, Ramones y Tom Petty...

Rush generally sounds like they're screaming. And I can't understand the lyrics.

just 1

The first song is a 20+ minute sci-fi story about a guy finding a guitar in a cave based on a story by Ayn Rand. So, yeah, I'm out. If you removed the vocal from this album it might be a 3.

Don't have the patience for that first track. Not particularly in the mood for such a slow build up. Got to the vocals and threw the record out.

Utter utter utter utter shite

I am not a Rush fan to begin with. The opening 16 minute song was a bit much.

Not for me

No.

Annoying

This really was not for me. I can appreciate the ambition behind 2112. The musicianship is clearly impressive and the concept is bold. But as a listening experience it just does not land for me at all. The long, sprawling title track feels overblown rather than epic, and the theatrical vocals make it hard for me to connect with the story. There is no doubt Rush are talented, but the combination of progressive rock excess and sci fi concept leaves me cold. It feels more technical than emotional, and I struggle to find anything that draws me in. Favourite track: None that truly grabbed me Least favourite: The extended title suite is particularly hard work Album artwork: Striking and instantly recognisable, even if the music does not match it for me

21 minuter va första spåret

No, no, no

Grandiose lyrics, lacking depth, voice is grating

I do not like rush

WACK

Not that interesting to me

Ayn Rand? Really?

Known before: Standouts: Rating: 1.5

No. No. No. Stop it.

Empezamos semana con uno de los habituales coñazos. Seguimos para bingo.

Langweiliger progressive Rock

Nerd! The singing is utterly awful. The music is 70s prog rock, which mean it sounds like everyone else except without constraint to societal norms like key signature or musical expecations.

I’m not progressive enough for this but my friend Mark is.

Can’t do Rush

I don't like the whole rush experience. I recognize they are good at playing their instruments, but on the whole it is so not for me. Like, I think they're awful but I can't articulate why. This has been the worst album I've listened to in this 1001 album thing by far.

Meh. Not my jam.

Randian trash.

omg while i was listening to this album the ghosts of geddy lee and ayn rand gave me sexual pleasure while whispering in my ear that i'm so much smarter than everyone around me (adding: jesus christ, they remastered this record during THIS century and they still didn't get rid of that racist-ass riff on "A Passage To Bangkok?" it was gonna be 2 stars until that shit, fellas. go fuck yourselves with that White Foolishness.)

Can’t stand Rush.

fuck you!!!!

Bag o' poo

Nao gostei de nada

omg i just realised the whole point of this is its the 1812 overture but its rush hahaha omg that sucks yeah quite lame

Com determinação, consegui resistir aos 20 minutos carregados de pretensão, de fato também de toda técnica. Não funciona para mim, o vocal é fundamental para confirmar o quão enfadonho é.

-Had to listen to this on apple music because spotify only had the 40th anny edition full of BS live tracks etc. -The absolute sheer audactity of opening an album with a 16 min song that begins with a solid 6 minute instrumental lol - Rush has their own genre: operatic-sea shanty- canadiana prog rock -Im not on enough drugs for this. -Second track is kinda racist, I was offended. - I like Rush, but their sound wears on me after a while. Kind of like Oatmeal. Pretty good every once in a while but gets boring fast.

Not for me. Prog rock. A bit jarring. Do not like Geddy Lee’s voice at all. 1.

A real pile of shit start to finish. All the bad bits of prog represented, nonsense lyrics and wanky music

Gah!

Didn’t love this one only because I didn’t feel myself connecting with it lyrically or instrumentally.

Niet te doen. Technisch vast allemaal erg goed, maar zo gezapig en nodeloos complex...

Niet te harden zeg, wat een ellende. Dat gepriegel en gedoe, echt vermoeiend. Waarom staat deze verschrikkelijke plaat in deze lijst?

I really don't care much for this album. I love "Permanent Waves" and "Moving Pictures" but only came across them via a recommendation about 20 years ago from another like minded musical friend... those albums have a bit of 'rock' about them and aren't as 'twiddly' or 'hysterical' as this is.

Really poor

nah

Not my cup of tea…

De eerste tonen doen me denken aan Bad Religion, maar dat maakt toch met plaats voor Hole. Helaas gaat me dit album snel irriteren. In het begin zijn dat de vele overgangen in een nummer, waardoor het me niet lukt om ontspannen te genieten. Uiteindelijk is het vooral de overschreeuwerige stem tijdens rustige stukken. Voor mij is het een album dat een bepaalde balans mist. Beste nummer is "Tears" dat zo in de aftiteling van een film past.

Hate rush

1/5 not really my style of music,alot of guitar so if that's your thing I would recommend this album but It just wasn't for me :)

Not my thing

I didn't like Rush beforehand, and this album hasn't changed my opinion.

Rush is the worst

Almost unlistenable. Terrible.

Rimelig hård rock, 20 min intro, (måske) forud for sin tid

pretty nice

I love my 5.1 recording of this. Had it on vinyl as a little kid. 5/5
