Rush - The New Birth Control

"No one has ever gotten pregnant while listening to the music of Rush. "

First of many laughs reading this piece.

Thanks for this.

T,

(Also a Rush fan)

What happens if side 1 of 2112 is played?

I think the L/R pans in the intro of "Overture" won’t help in setting the mood.

I really needed this today...great laughs (also a long-time Rush fan).

funny -- thx!

I starting to doubt your dedication to Sparkle Motion.

I can't stand Rush and take this as validation.

Found this a few days ago and had to share it with many. A long-time, dedicated Rush fan here but completely agree with almost everything. However, when I was on the first date with the woman who is now my wife of 11 years, I asked her if she liked Rush and when she said "Yes", I knew it was destiny.

@teo_audio. great reference!

Good one thx,

The Mars Volta works even better. 

Metallica's Death Magnetic will cause sterility when played back LOUD to anyone nearby!

Hmm, I don’t know? I remember a particular party listing to La Villa Strangiato and a particular girl and I, well, let’s just say, getting a bit “frisky”!

That was hilarious!😂😂😂😂

any track in which a citizen of a hypothetical futuristic society discovers a banned quotidian object. In clinical trials, positive results were achieved with “Red Barchetta”

+1 jond. sounds like a complete jumbled mess to me.

...and there was a band called 'Birth Control'....

I would argue that Rush was really a prog band, although they did have a prog-ish phase. And yes, I am a fan.

But the article is pretty funny.

Seriously, there are prog bands (especially in the avant-prog subgenre), past and present, that make Rush sound like a Korean boy band. 

If Rush is birth control, then by comparison, The Thinking Plague might cause infertility. 

What's he heretical opposite of a Dead Head femme, a Rush femme.
God I Love the Dead!

I've loved both for many years, though Rush takes precedence. I'm also one of the few people I know who love Phish as much as Rush - both with equal, tear-inducing emotion.

I wonder where he would put King Crimson? Do you think that Robert Fripp would care?

Clearly none of  you read MCSweeney's
