Just like Rush.


Because they both wanted to be like Rush because Rush is a clearly better band than either? Yes.

I expect the classic rock police to come cruising in here any minute to chastise you thoroughly.

That there's a move the neighbor kids would refer to as "old school balls."

What about the recent change in Megadeth again? Dave has a great cast of lead players, but Teemu seems to be the latest to play all the classics.

I can't get on with either Mave's voice or their shitty thin tone. That said, I don't particularly listen to Metallica these days so it's a reluctant draw. Neither of them have put a good album in at least 25 years.

They didn't want to, they did.

And they weren't cancelled.

Rush sucks more than Megadeth and Metallica combined. Fuck that shitty band and their loser fan base.

Damn, you went scorched earth at the end. I'm no Rush fan, but appreciate what they gave us.

What's the story for the hate? Just curious, cause I could say the same for a myriad of bands :lol:

His voice is annoying, their fans are annoying, the guitar riffs are not my thing, dungeons and dragons isn’t my thing…

Idk I’ve just always heard nails on a chalk board when I hear Rush/Geddy Lee and then their fans cemented that hate. They were the original Tool fans.

I love Rush but I really can’t refute that last thing Dave said about the fans lol.
