>character is a basement dwelling loser neckbeard into D&D, video games, metal and rock, swords, typical "nerd shit" >devoted fan of Rush Why is Rush always the favorite band for these type of person in Television and Film?
deedle deedle deedle, deedle deedle deedle
They are kinda corny. Geddy Lee looks like a fucking bird and sounds like a woman, I’d be embarrassed to say I listen to music sung by that guy
nah these people all like European fantasy metal. Blind Guardian, Nightwish, that type of thing.
>>216951842Because they sing about elves and trees and druids. They are fucking dorks just like Zeppelin and their music is still great.
>>216951904they did that one time in their first album like 50 fuckin years ago
>>216951927Yes and that's all it takes to forever be remembered in pop culture as a dork.If you shit your pants only once in elementary school I'm willing to bet you the people who grew up with you would still reference that in high school.
>>216951842I can't explain why but those types always gravitate to Prog Rock. Like when I was in school those types instead listened to Dream Theater which is basically Rush but Metal.
Their best song is Working ManAnd its not really even close
>>2169520522112 is amazing but you need to be white and not have a zoomer attention span to listen to it in one go.
>>216951842I want to like Rush but Neil Peart is overrated as FUCK. Seriously, he's really not that good a drummer.
>>216952070And who's your go to Joey Jordison lmao?>OMG HE DID SWEEP ROLL ON THIS SHITTY SLIPKNOT SONG FOR THE 20TH TIME EPIC DUDE
>>216951992> I'm willing to bet you the people who grew up with you would still reference that in high school.This is true, that literally happened to me.
>>216952185did you threaten to sodomize them to give them a leaky butthole to get them to stop? worked for me
>>216951842For me it's Huey Lewis and the News
>>216951842For me its The Fall of Troy
>>216952239I DON’T WANNA SEE THE DAAAAAY
>>216952052It's actually Red Based-chetta>Wind>In my hair>Shifting and drifting>Mechanical music>Adrenaline SUUURGE
>>216952417Absolutely based Moving Pictures is such a fantastic album from top to bottom
>>216951890You mean power metal?
>>216952052YYZ, actually
>>216952237never heard of them. Any song you'd recommend?
>>216951890lmao I wish. Having been around this faggot types I'd love to be able to talk some Blind Guardian.
>>216952052tom sawyer mogs
>>216952417>>216952491I had a moving pictures CD I listened to a ton but that song was scratched. So I never listened to it until an adult. Way better that way.
IT AINT EASY BEIN CHEEZY
>>216951842I like Prog Rock unironically
>>216952516i do, yeah. i originally wrote 'power metal' but i felt like metalfags will argue.from symphonic to more thrashy stuff, those guys like metal about warriors and dragons. they just do.
what other dad rock could the audience understand it then?styx?depeche mode?queen?>>216951927their first album was before peart joined and wrote all of the sci fi and fantasy songs
>>216952417>A bunch of liberals singing the praises of old gas powered cars and the freedom they provide during "better managed times" while decrying the modern electric zogbots now chasing themIt was a different time...
>>216952721>A bunch of liberalspeart wrote 2112 because of reading ayn rand
Realistically they would have went with Primus, but that would have opened a can of worms.
What do we think about 'Imbred'?
Tool has a shitty fan base but I’ve never seen any movie/show shit on them
>>216952948Normalfags (TV show writers) have never heard of Tool.
>>216952850That can of worms was still opened thohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQ3VjAMD5gA
>>216952237haha I loved that bit. Huey Lewis and the News is such a corporate bland band. Only a complete psycho would like them.
>>216951842>Why is Rush always the favorite band for these type of person in Television and Film?Because "art" imitates reality.
>>216952052all the replies to this post are contenders, but working man is still the correct answer.
>>216952070this is a new low, even for this place
>>216952602kek that's literally meListening to Van Der Graaft Generator as I type this
>>216951842i'm a girl i don't even like the good monty python sketch
>>216952702>that guy? totally straight>but he's in depeche moooodeee
>>216953594the guys in wham have girlfriends
>>216951842They're weird but popular enough that everyone has heard of them. This isn't really a trope anymore though because Neil died and they'll probably never make another album. Yet another cool thing that died shortly after 2012.
>>216952721>>216952823another really based song is The Trees
every song in the Rush pinball machine(Stern, 2022) is a certified banger
>>216951842It was only ever white trash that listened to rush. A fine band instrumentally but their lyrics are horrendously overwrought and of course theres the matter of the vocals. To say Geddys voice is an acquired taste is putting it nicely, they’re pretty much fingernails on chalkboard territory, esp for girls & who, if you’ve got a wide range that can go high like robert plant or joe elliot thats fine but those voices still have a hefty masculine timbre. Geddy Lee’s voice is like a squeal. Tough sell.
>>216951904>They are fucking dorksConfirmed, instead of getting wasted and fucking groupies they played fantasy baseball pen and paper on the tour bus
>>216951904blind guardian has three songs about gandalftwo are instrumental
>>216953765So all three of them were autistic as fuck? Sounds like /ourguys/ to me.
>>216952052>>216953211Closer to the Heart
>>216952602I used to think I liked Prog. And then I realized I just liked King Crimson, and the album Tarkus by ELP. Whenever I explored the rest of the bands like Yes, the other ELP, PF, and Rush and none of it did it for me, so I was convinced I didn't actually like Prog and had given up on the genre.Then I come across the most random obscure shit like pic related, and Liz Frasier's Sun Signature and I do like Prog again. Also some Mexicans made a piece entitled A Boa a Qu and it is amazing, and I can't find anything about where it came from.
everytime someone doesnt like rush and you ask what they listen to, everyone in that band will say "rush was our biggest influence"
>>216953827pen and paper fantasy baseball is as autistic as it gets. Scouring box scores from newspapers, endless pages of stats, manually compiled and translated to fantasy scoring. I played serious fantasy baseball in the internet age and even that was autistic, this is serious sperg territory.
>>216953878Check out Fugazi by Marillion.
>>216951842Everybody likes Rush.
>>216952702>styx?>depeche mode?>queen?I thought these were all wine aunt territory.Alas, Depeche Mode, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, and Cocteau Twins are my favorite bands, which puts me squarely on the wine aunt porch. I saw an unbelievable amount of leather mommas at the Cleveland show lol
>>216951842>Always RushTrvke >>216952417Yes
>>216954007If there's one thing I know about autists is that they generally love baseball so this is some sort of super autism. Probably the kind that the Predators were trying to weaponise.
>>216951842What did they mean by this?https://youtu.be/603u2rRcGFY
>Doesn't like RushKys
>>216953837another good contender. maybe the only one that i would consider putting ahead of working man. as bonecrushing as working man is, closer to the heart is about as close as you can get to a perfect song.
>>216951842My first introduction to the existence of Rush was from Trailer Park Boys.
>>216952721>rush>liberalslisten to "something for nothing", "the trees" and "2112" again, anon
>>216951842>We are the priests, of the temples of Syrinx>Our great computers fill the hallowed halls>We are the priests, of the temples of Syrinx>All the gifts of life are held within our wallsRush is corny as fuck, bro.
>>216954526great episode, one of the best in fact
>>216952052>>216952052Working Man is great but it's not even top 10
>>216951890weirdest kid I know was into that stuff, Dream Theater etcLast I heard he threw his mom through a window at the mall
>>216954676Based thot destroyer
>>216951842Normalfags don't understand Rush.
>>216952052their best song is xanadu
>>216951842I don't remember Chris being into any of these things, he's just into porn and masturbation.
