Liking Rush takes (like Jazz) both a certain musical maturity and a specific musical aesthetic. Having one, without the other is usually not enough (though Rush is a little more accessible than a lot of Jazz). "Xanadu," for example, is probably the pinnacle of complex drumming in a non-solo. Peart manages to weave three simultaneous rhythms/beats seemlessly with the rest of the song. Usually, when an instrument is used with such virtuosity, it stands out and diminishes the rest of the song.
Anyway, Rush is awesome, but I was kind of blah about them at first as well. It wasn't until I started getting all hoity-toity holier-than-thou with my music tastes that I started to try to understand them. Now that I'm (largely) over that sense of superiority, I still find them amazing, but I don't have to jam then down everyone else's throat.
