Some info on the new RUSH album

[Hawk]

According to Rush fansite www.2112.net, the band's new studio album is done. Producer Nick Raskulinecz is quoted as stating: "I think we made their best record in 15 years", adding that the upcoming release will have "the sound and vibe of an old Rush record - i.e one of the gloriously overwrought sci-fi prog-metal epics he grew up with, albums like 2121 and Hemispheres and Permanent Waves."

Calm down people... I am gonna believe it when I hear it. But just think... If this is true...

Same here, "Vapour Trails" was horrible IMO, I bought it play it like 5 times and trade it. Last decent album from Rush was "Test For Echo", but I'm aching for some 70's vibe indeed

How is it that both times I've seen this story the "2112" is "2121"? Does that indicate it's a spoof? Or is it just a typo? Wellll, other than the fact you prolly got the story in the same place as the other one I saw, eh?

Five times?! That's unheard of! You helped buy Peart his new Truimph or BMW bike!!!! I wouldn't even say that Test was all that either! Rush should just make DVDs that's their strong point these days...

I'm with Hawk. I'll believe it when I hear it. That said, I'd sure welcome a return to 70s style Rush. They really rocked out back then.

That sounds really cool! I hope it's all true or at least close enough to true that it's only a little white lie.

I hope it will sound like the old stuff.
Hemispheres is one of my favorite Rush albums.

Excuse my skepticism, let's wait for the final product and then we talk (I hope we have a lot positive to talk then )

Wyvern were did I say that I was optimistic? Like I said in the first post:

"I am gonna believe it when I hear it."

That does not mean however that I can enjoy an interview.

 

[The saYer]

I didn't really like the recent stuff. Probably will only hear this one if there are rave revs.

Wyvern were did I say that I was optimistic?

Never said you were I'm skeptic about Lifeson saying, regardless if you (or I) enjoy or not the interview.

Sometimes being telegraphic at a forum causes misundertandings, I wish it'll be telepathic posting I'm soooo lazy

I know the problem buddy.

And don't worry I know the tricks of the promo machine. I just hope an artists of the integrity level of Alex Lifeson has not fallen for it.

I guess we'll know soon enough.
