My most played album # 90. Rush - Hemispheres! I love Rush I was wondering why only 2 Rush albums in my top 100? So I decided to listen to more Rush and I saw why I listen to each album less. It's because they are so good. Their early albums are raw and lots of guitar I love them, the middle albums have there best songs, the later albums are really fresh, I need to play more. 27 albums when I'm in a Rush mood what do I play? Unlike so many bands breaking up and getting back together and changing band members Rush is just great all the time. So many great albums so little time! Play it loud or don't play it a all!

전체적인 런닝타임은 36분에 불과하지만 그 안에 18분, 9분여의 대곡이 포함되어있고 쉴틈없이 전개되는 유기적인 곡들은 듣는내내 긴장감을 느껴지게 만드는 매력이 있다. 프로그래시브한 성향이 이전부터 나탔지지만 역시 이 앨범에서 보여주는 하드락과 프로그래시브적인 요소의 조합은 이후 복잡한 구성의 프로그래시브메탈에 많은 영향을 주었을것이다. 간단히 말하면 이 앨범은 완벽하다. 너무 하드락적이어서 지루한면도 전혀없고, 너무 프로그래시브해서 복잡하고 시끄럽고 조잡한점도 전혀느껴지지 않는다. 시간이 어느새 후딱 지나가버린다는 표현은 이런앨범을 듣고 해주면되겠다.

My number two album by Rush. Amazing trip. The Trees and La Villa Strangiato made me travel far away.

대곡의 기승전결은 완벽하다. Rush는 Progressive 라는 장르의 창시자이자, Progressive 그 자체이다.

어떻게 이런 음악을 만들었을까?? Moving pictures보다 심한 충격을 받았다. 특히 여러 종류의 나무를 빗대어 권력층을 비판한 The trees가 경이로웠다.

1번보다 후속타자들이 더 좋다. 마지막에 엄청 달려주신다

러닝타임이 은근 아쉽긴 하지만 그래도 프록의 교과서 중 하나.

드림 씨어터의 모든 곡들의 유기성은 이 앨범이 기판이 되었다

러쉬의 초기 음반들은 사운드가 깔끔하다. 2번곡은 한번만 들어도 금방 친숙해진다.
