So.. no HMX guys have confirmed if the woodblocks and cowbells are playable in The Trees. :|

[Happyknife]

Oh God! How great would Natural Science be on Rock Band? EPIC!!!

dont forget about Jacob's Ladder and Freewill. I really hope they give us Permanent Waves even moreso than Moving Pictures.

At the end of the day, if multiple full albums couldn't be done, I would accept a Who-like Greatest Hits type package

Lakeside Park
Xanadu
La Villa Stranglato (yeah i know its an instrumental but oh well)
In The End (get those lighters up in the air)
Jacob's Ladder
Freewill
By-Tor and the Snow Dog
Fly By Night
Witch Hunt
Red Barchetta
Subdivisions
Red Sector A
Distant Early Warning

As soon as we get keyboard peripherals...

From about Counterparts on, they've been very light on keyboards. That's about the last 15+ years.

Eh, I honestly believe Rush went a bit downhill after Roll The Bones. It's the only album of their new style that I really like. The guitars are too distorted and everything is too heavy.

I tend to agree, but I fell more in love with Test for Echo the more I listened to it....Vapor Trails I dont like at all, maybe 2 songs max.....however, Snakes and Arrows is phenomenal by the way....their latest release...worth a listen...WOW!

Yeahhh, Roll the Bones is actually starting to really grow on me, Dreamline has to be on this game. Everything about that song is amazing. I do actually like S&A a lot though.

My ideal RUSH 12 pack (if following Tho Who type of pack)

A Passage to Bangkok
Fly By Night
By-tor & the Snow Dog
A Farewell to Kings
Spirit of the Radio
Freewill
Natural Science
Red Barchetta
New World Man
Roll the Bones
Dreamline
The Larger Bowl

GET ON IT HMX!

GET ON IT HMX!

I can't believe I didn't have Natural Science on my list. Complete typo. That song is a no-brainer. I would have had Passage To Bangkok but that song could get HMX into some trouble with their current T for Teen rating. It's all well conceived and very clever in its lyrics but at the end of the day its a song about smoking marijuana. I love the songs and even the whole idea of the song but you just cant have that in a non-MA game without raising a firestorm.

You know what underappreciated song for RB from Rush would be the Fountain Of Lamenth from Carress of Steel. It has like 7 different songs wrapped into one and does the whole nine yards (including an on-album drum solo). Its a literally epic song that deserves a look. It's pretty much unheard of from non-Rush fans, but its great. Kinda Jethro Tull meets Yes meets Rush. Very progressive and even had a track based on Tolkien lore (The Necromancer...another epic multi seque song)

Carress of Steel is one of the unrecognized masterpieces of modern music. Another would be Sad Wings of Destiny by Judas Priest. Both just classic albums that sometimes get swept under the rug by the general public.

I completely agree.

Very underrated. Lakeside Park and Bastille Day are also songs that I wouldn't mind on Rock Band.

I know it happened awhile ago, but when they announced Rush I just started screaming at the top of my lungs out of total joy.

As for A Passage to Bangkok, you're probably right, I never even thought about how the lyrics wouldn't get pass the ESRB or whoever controls that, it does sorta directly talk about weed. That being said, I thought the Grateful Dead had some pretty druggie lyrics as well.
