Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Velvet Revolver) and Rush co-producing. The album's recently released first single, "Far Cry", was the #1 most added song at rock radio and already Top 10 on the rock radio charts with airplay on over 100 stations in the U.S.
Since releasing its self-titled debut album in 1974, Rush has been universally regarded as one of the most inventive and exciting groups in rock, famed for virtuoso musicianship, epic soundscapes, and dramatic lyricism. The band's extraordinary body of work — which includes such acclaimed works as 1976's "2112", 1981's "Moving Pictures", 1996's "Test for Echo", and 2002's "Vapor Trails" — has achieved worldwide sales exceeding 35 million units.
