I'd argue it was Permanent Waves (1980), but still...

Well I personally don't enjoy a good chunk of their discography (Signals to Presto, Counterparts to Vapor Trails) but love the other half dearly (I'm excluding Clockwork Angels because I haven't listened to it yet). The stuff I don't like is a bit too synth-heavy and ambient for my taste, but somehow they got it right on Roll the Bones, and none of their other synth-abusive albums. Even though it's not as great as Moving Pictures, it's still a great album

Clockwork Angels is a good album, but not a great album. Close, however... Originally Posted by Cipher_Peon

I'm going to go with Hold Your Fire, but then again, I'm a big fan of their New Wave period.

Clockwork Angels is certainly the best Rush album since Signals. I would put it near the level of Moving Pictures, and above that of Signals, and 2112.
