Lol, both are good but you'd have to be insane not to vote Rush.

A - easy

Funny, Rush is band from my way long gone youth and Nirvana is a band from my somewhat more recent early adult years, and in their times - I loved them both, probably equally.  I don't really listen to either anymore.

That said, listening now and considering their respective legacies, Nirvana is way over-rated and Rush is way under-rated.  Just my opinion of course, and Nirvana was good/great, but Rush was phenomenal.

Whatever, Dave Grohls Turtle Neck was supposed to be ironic or metaphoric.   :bath:

It's as much about buying drugs as it is about doing them.  Yet, it can also translate into other ways of doing things>?

It's like trying to choose between two different kinds of apples.  Some days I want a Jona Gold and some days I want a Honey Crisp. If I'm baking tho, well, I'll need a few Empires...

Rush has a technical mastery that is hard to beat. They have a sense of humour and don't shy away from being intelligent.

Nirvana taps into the angst of being disenfranchised like few others.

But, then, if one must choose based on these two moments in time: Rush wins this contest HANDS DOWN!

If I am going to listen to Come As You Are it's not when Dave G. is tapping on his drums like he is trying to balance dog poop on the nipple of a baby bottle full of nitroglycerin.

If I'm going to listen to Dave G, it's gotta be while I'm in the middle of driving myself off a cliff. Nirvana, okay fine I'll respect them or whatever (though I don't get why we all have to). Foo Fighters... worst band ever. I have a serious vandetta against that dude.
