Well, one reason why it may sound a lot like Rush is because I am a HUGE Rush fan myself (While I was into drumming, Neil Peart was my fav drummer), and I tend to incorporate a bit of Rush's style into my music sometimes. Yeah, it's Slayer! I'm always trying to find new ways to use it, more ways to make it sound better! This is probably the best use I've gotten out of Slayer, it almost sounds like a real guitar in places. I'm telling you, you would'nt want to hear the original. It's about 20 seconds long, and is IMPOSSIBLE to listen to all the way through without shrieking in horror. It was made for a remix competition on FFR, and though nobody (and I MEAN nobody) liked it, I decided to try and remix it anyway. A rock/dance fusion with some Teenage Wasteland-like rythm guitar lixx was what I got for doing so. Before I could submit it, the people in charge had changed the target remix song, ruining any and all chances I had to win that particular round of the competition. I'm still bummed that I didn't submit it on time, but now I've got a jamming track to listen to when I feel like it :D
