Clockwork Angels album Product Description
Clockwork Angels album by Rush was released Jun 12, 2012 on the Roadrunner label. 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. Clockwork Angels has been a long time coming. Rush foreshadowed it in 2010 by releasing "BU2B," and "Caravan" to radio. The next single, "Headlong Flight," didn't appear until 2012. ...See Full Description

| Awesome It's great when a band gets along with each other and they enjoy making music. This is reflected & obvious through out the album. Clockwork Angles & Wish Them Well" are two of my favorite tracks on this CD. Well worth checking out. By georgeaclark (Oakland Gardens, NY)  This review is for a different format. |
| Pride In The Name Of RUSH Been a Rush fan forever, still play their old stuff on my guitar. This album more than any other makes me proud to be a Rush fan. It's a big proggy story and the music and playing are awesome. As stated the more you listen the more is revealed, there is so much going on here. It's so dense in fact that the initial listen can be overwhelming and you can't grok it all so some may pass it off but true fans will be rewarded. And if you are new to Rush prepare to be blown away by this "power trio". By evalsch (Livermore, CA, USA)  This review is for a different format. |
| Rush Still Rocks the House Rush has been one of those amazing examples of a rock band that doesn't follow trends in order to sell records. Clockwork Angels shows that even after almost 40 years Rush is still going where they want, instead of where they should. Or at least where everybody else thought they should have gone. Considering everything that Neil, Alex & Geddy have been through over the almost 40 yrs they have been making music together, it speaks volumes that they are still friends, still playing, and most impressively, still making fantastic music. Unlike some bands from the '70s that haven't written or recorded anything new in 25-30 yrs but still tour the county-fair circuit playing their old "classic rock" catalog, Rush is touring behind their 20th (I think) original studio record. With the notable exception of the FEEDBACK record - released to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the original RUSH record from 1974 - Rush has always written, produced and recorded only original compositions.

| RUSH / C.A. / A Steam Punk Winner!!! This has to be one of the best Rush albums in 2 decades. While it does take several listens to love. Love it , you will. Back are Alex's traditional guitar solos , Moog synths , piano and beautiful sounding strings. Every song is connected by music , not just silence like any great Pink Floyd album. However , the lyrics and music are more upbeat and hopeful. Even old Rush fans who only like their 1970s music will love this album. There is also a novel that you can buy that goes with this album. What is truly amazing is that Rush can come out with an excellent and innovative album this late in their career. How many other bands in all of rock history can claim that?
