Hmm...maybe they should have been on my list too.

Nah, I like Rush, but I can take them or leave them. I don't mind Geddy's voice, but I think Neil Pert is the most over-rated drummer in the history of music next to John Bonham and Lars Ulrich. That said, I think Alex and Geddy are under-rated on their instruments - they're above and beyond Pert in my opinion. But as a band, they're on my B list of rock bands...maybe C.

But you're right...I'll take Magma, Ruins, or Univers Zero before I look at Rush for great drummer-lead rock bands.
