Cygnus-X1
Rush is not as polished, not as poignant as other later albums from this Canadian Power Trio, but it was their beginning, their genesis, and the world is truly a better place because of it.

All Music
While longtime Rush fans can appreciate their debut because they never returned to this style, newcomers should stick with their classics from later years.

The Odyssey
2017 - It’s full of energy and demonstrates the excellent muscianship of the Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson

Ultimate Classic Rock
The only album to feature original drummer John Rutsey, Rush's self-titled debut is a favorite among fans – and it's easy to hear why in the record's bludgeoning proto-metal attack

2014 - an energetic and entertaining debut album

Adrian's Album Reviews
The album as a whole is hardly an essential work although should still be interesting to Rush fans of a completist nature.

John McFerrin Music Reviews
It's extremely unpolished, but it betrays a good amount of talent on the part of the band members. There's no concept or real ambition, but that's where part of the enjoyment comes from. GOOD

Only Solitaire
It's well-created and fun, and really sums up the merits of early heavy metal in a good way.

Overall, if you're inclined to heavy metal and Rush, I'd surely check this one out. So what if it doesn't have Neil Peart on drums? Who cares??
