do you guys consider Rush to be heavy rock/metal or prog rock?

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 2 August 2012 02:31 (thirteen years ago)

heavy prog rock

vincent black shadow giallo (Edward III), Thursday, 2 August 2012 02:59 (thirteen years ago)

both

Progressive hard rock: a post-Zeppelin hard rock band that sought to expand

EveningStar (Sund4r), Thursday, 2 August 2012 04:11 (thirteen years ago)

Well, I haven't had a ruling on live stuff yet, but I'm gonna nominate

Jun Togawa - Punk Mushi No Onna

Which is from a live album, and is a reworking of a much less rocking song, but it is amazing.

emil.y, Thursday, 2 August 2012 14:49 (thirteen years ago)

i see no problem with live stuff as i said on the albums thread. But you can decide what is in or out on this tracks poll , if you want.

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 2 August 2012 14:51 (thirteen years ago)

Ah, sorry, I missed that on the albums, I thought there was ambiguity.

emil.y, Thursday, 2 August 2012 14:58 (thirteen years ago)

no i replied to your post on there! (ps look on the psych thread)

Algerian Goalkeeper, Thursday, 2 August 2012 14:58 (thirteen years ago)

and live stuff is allowed but if a studio version is nominated they wont be combined. Hate it when remixes get combined with og versions in the ILM EOY polls so people get 2 vote points for1 vote.

Algerian Goalkeeper, Sunday, 5 August 2012 13:42 (thirteen years ago)

I'm kind of in the camp that says "let people nominate anything, even stuff that clearly doesn't fit, and if enough people really want to be pranksters then they can eat the poll they made". But I might give the Adam & the Ants stuff a re-listen, I wager that some of it *would* fit the remit.
