Rush (1975) Beneath, Between & Behind - LOST 70s GEMS

A great example of a Rush song, a malevolent falsetto vocal by Geddy Lee and crashing rhythms of Alex Lifesons' power chords and Neil Peart's brutal drums. They assault you on a spatial level, Lee sings in a piercing, high spirited manner like Jon Anderson but on steroids, while Lifeson's slashing power chords cut through the mix with their heavy delay mixing well with Peart's array of cymbals smashing and machine gun rolls. It's an energetic display that rivals Zeppelin and Yes for it's Prog air and Hard Rock intensity; it's an incendiary melody at it's core that just screams 70s rock at it's very finest.
