>My taste could have gone a lot edgier than that but I like the evening dress to show that edge. I like some class for putting it into the spotlight.
>It sounds sad as hell indeed. It has its upbeat moments as well,

I don't think your taste is edgy.. at least in a negative connotation of the word. For you the edgyness is not an aesthetic but an expression. You aren't wholly defined by it either.

>Especially Rush, which I knew and head marvelous things about them. No wonder, they consider 2112 a masterpiece.

That is one of my favorites as well. it's also ant collectivist in meaning if you can't tell Most people consider there early stuff to be the best with it starting to go downhill somepoint in the mid 80's. Though there recent stuff is considered more true to form. I actually listen to a fair bit beyond what is considered good albums by most and have a few songs I like from that era. There songs became more depressing and reflective rather then wrapped in a fantasy or sci-fi concept albums, philosophy and there rabid individualist themes (not saying some of there early stuff didn't ever touch on those themes). They also did a lot of experimentation in style as well, rather then in complexity. While I don't hate most of there work from that era i can understand why it is off putting to some.

slightly more popish song with an out of no where rap segment being one of best examples of more mixed reception on experimentation

Welp, of all things I am being interputed mid posting agian. Not sure if I'll have another chance to post today. Maybe someday I'll get to the rest of this. Good luck!
