Frank, till I finally looked up Rush on Wikipedia a few months ago, I always thought there was woman lead vocalist.
Rush\'s last good album = A Farewell to Kings.
we should see how many threads on .info we could turn into political talk.
If you\'re a liberal, the hip thing to do is rip on Christians. Seriously. Examples abound in: Hollywood, main stream media, colleges and universities across the country, etc.
i seriously hate rush and yes
hate them!
I\'ve traveled to Muslim countries in the same capacity, and usually they steer clear of the religion topic.
rush Sucks Balls.worst Band Ever.geddy Lee=takes It In The Ass
In summary, there are 2 "sick" instrumentals; the album is 60 minutes long; old gear was used (which jibes with an earlier rumor about a mellotron being utilized); Alex used the same amp he used when recording Hemispheres on Far Cry; and the album will be available on vinyl. Rumor or not - this is all great news.

Thanks mentioning Gentle Giant. They were probably the most amazing, and underrecognized progressive rock bands that ever existed! Saw them twice and have lots of their albums and both of their recently released DVDs. Talk about multi-instrumentalists. BTW, they are British.
"You try to put your own way of seeing the world into some kind of congruence with other peoples, and that\'s difficult for me," he admits. "I mean, I see the world in what I think to be a perfectly obvious and rational way, but when you go out into it and see the way other people think and behave, and express themselves on church signs, you realize, \'Well, I\'m not really part of this club.\'"
Paul, you know my feelings on Rush. Excuse me while I vomit in my mouth. :biggrin:
"Rocket" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jdgj0cSgPLo), music video by Smashing Pumpkins, July 1993(https://thebreakfast.info/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.2112.net%2Fpowerwindows%2Freferences%2FSmashingPumkinsRocketVideo.jpg&hash=67d44ad0f9c2baa7132a671aa1ad67188d679d71)
At the beginning of the video there is a close up of Billy Corgan\'s guitar on which a Rush sticker is clearly displayed. Corgan has always referred to Rush as a major influence and along with verbally giving thanks to Rush, performed a live, unplugged version of "Limelight" during a Smashing Pumpkins\' concert in Toronto, Canada, in March 2000
Rush has set a May 1 release date for its 18th studio album, "Snakes & Arrows." The Anthem/Atlantic set will be preceded by the single "Far Cry," which will hit U.S. rock radio outlets in mid-March. "Snakes & Arrows" is the follow-up to 2002\'s "Vapor Trails."
Drummer Neil Peart previously told Billboard.com some of his lyrics for the new songs were inspired by his motorcycle journeys throughout the United States, chronicled in his book "Roadshow: Landscape With Drums."
"Just seeing the power of evangelical Christianity and contrasting that with the power of fundamentalist religion all over the world in its different forms had a big effect on me," he said.
"You try to put your own way of seeing the world into some kind of congruence with other peoples, and that\'s difficult for me," he admits. "I mean, I see the world in what I think to be a perfectly obvious and rational way, but when you go out into it and see the way other people think and behave, and express themselves on church signs, you realize, \'Well, I\'m not really part of this club.\'"
Dates have yet to be announced, but Rush will return to the road for the first time in three years this summer.
I\'m such a sucker for good prog rock! I admit it. go ahead let the flaming begin...
for those in need of geat old school progresive jams check out the Norwegian band Gentle Giant. Google it. These guys were one of the first to do what everyonelse coppied.

12 second sound clip on the main sight :drool:that sample left me wanting more. 12 seconds of music= practically nothing for me to base an opinion on. That being said, what i heard i liked(It helped that there were no vocals).
They change time signature like 5 times in it. SOOOOO HEAVY.... The hemispheres refrence is clearly because of the F#7 add 11 at the end.

I was an outspoken Rush hater for a long time, but this past Freakout changed my mind a little. The Breakast doing Working Man is nasty. I\'ve heard it on the radio a few times since, and it\'s just a great song. I\'ve come to the conclusion it\'s the awful falsetto vocals I can\'t stand.Vocals are my main problem w/ both Rush and Yes. Did these 2 bands have the same lead singer or what? (I know I know they def didn\'t). Anyways, musically I think both of said bands are ser. I will check out the new album but its very doubtful i will buy it.
Def. one of my top 5 tB covers.
Looking forward to the new album.
Yeah.
Rush.
Wooo.
^^^ Not sarcastic.
Rush was aksed to do Bonnaroo Festival. They declined. Too busy a schedule with their own tour was the reason given.

Alex Lifeson says new album will be "heavier and more powerful" - The new album is indeed heavier and more powerful - very Hemispherical. :)
According to FMQB.com the first Rush single titled Far Cry from the new album Snakes and Arrows will be released on March 19-20 rather than March 13 as was originally rumored. Yesterday Blabbermouth.net and FMQB.com both reported on the single and rumored tour dates first leaked to the net (via Counterparts) earlier this week. Just to recap, the rumored dates are as follows:
Jun. 13 - Nashville, TN @ Starwood Amphitheater
Jun. 15 - West Palm Beach, FL @ Sound Advice Amphitheater
Jun. 16 - Tampa, FL @ Ford Amphitheater @ Florida State Fairgrounds
Jun. 18 - Atlanta, GA @ HiFi Buys Amphitheater
Jun. 19 - Charlotte, NC @ Verizon Wireless Amphitheater
Jun. 27 - Mansfield, MA @ Tweeter Center
Jul. 02 - Wantaugh, NY @ Jones Beach Amphitheater
Jul. 04 - Darien Lake, NY @ Six Flags
Jul. 07 - Homdel, NJ @ PNC Arts Center
Another rumor that I\'ll throw out that I read a few days ago on progarchives.com is that there will be some keyboards and a mellotron on the new album.
