Info for Clockwork Angels
Legendary rock band Rush have unveiled details of its highly anticipated 2012 album, Clockwork Angels. The recording of Clockwork Angels began with Grammy Award®-winner Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Deftones) who collaborated with the band on their 2007 studio album, Snakes and Arrows - and Rush co-producing.
Lyrically, Clockwork Angels chronicles a young man's quest across a lavish and colorful world of steampunk and alchemy as he attempts to follow his dreams. The story features lost cities, pirates, anarchists, exotic carnival, and a rigid Watchmaker who imposes precision on every aspect of daily life. With more than 40 million records sold worldwide and countless sold-out tours, Rush - Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Peart - is not only one of the most inventive and compelling groups in rock history, but remains one of the most popular.
It may come as a surprise to casual observers that this is Rush's first concept album in over 30 years, given they might reasonably assume the Canadian prog overlords only release concept albums. And for fans of 2112, their conceptual opus from 1976, Clockwork Angel's narrative about 'an individual trying to follow his dreams in a dystopian future' will seem rather familiar – but this isn't a mere reboot. Yes, there is the complex musicality of prog at its most refined (Caravan, Headlong Flight) nestling beside emotive AOR anthems (The Wreckers), but – remarkably for what is the band's 19th studio album – Clockwork Angels never sounds dated. Indeed, the churning, chunky riff on BU2B wouldn't sound out of place on a Mastodon record. While it might not have the immediacy of their previous release, Snakes and Arrows, this is the three-piece's most solid and compelling set of songs in years. Those who worship at the temple of Rush will be in raptures; for those who remain agnostic, there may well be enough here to justify a leap of faith. (Jamie Thomson, The Guardian)
