A Farewell To Kings [Mercury, 1977]The most obnoxious band currently making a killing on the zonked-teen circuit, not to be confused with Mahogany Rush, who at least spares us the reactionary gentility. Imagine a power-trio Kansas or Angel or Uriah Heep with the vocals cranked up an octave. Or two. D+
>>131319513Spot on, Dean.
>>131319513Has he ever written a review without inserting his Reddit politics?
>>131319513Accurate. Rush really sucks and only incels listen to them.
>>131319513This was his only review of them kek
>>131319513Rush became better when they made synths the core of their sound, and became boring when they dropped them. They are not a good band.
>>131319644Rush, Swans, and Death Grips are incel music starter park.
>>131319513tl;dr is that if they made street punk rock songs about NYC they would be good?
>>131319694Yeah, someone post the meme because I forgot to download it last time>band:|>band, NYC :O
>>131319651This particular review is one that consistently triggers /mu/.
>>131319770>>131319694zoomers probably don't "get" it but music used to be very tribal and you were obliged to support your town/scene. that's why for instance Chris Ott upboats literallywho Boston bands that were a thing when he was a teenager.
>>131319770>this absolute hack rated fucking Parallel Lines higher than King CrimsonHe did warm up to KC later in his life but still
>>131319788Dave Marsh was as big of a Detroit homer. He upboated every Bob Seger album except Against the Wind, which he found a disappointment, and he thought Debby Harry was a dumb whore with nothing to say and couldn't see anything of value there like Cuckgau did.
>>131319513Rush is a terrible and annoying band, only bested in these regards by The Police.
