Canadian prog legends Rush are returning with their 20th album titled Clockwork Angels and have released a slew of dates in support of the album. After hearing the first single off the album “Headlong Flight,” I couldn’t be more pumped for this album. Rush really embraced the heavier aspect of their style on this song and I’ve been hearing all kinds of positive and exciting feedback from metal fans all over.
According to the band’s press release, Clockwork Angels lyrically chronicles a young man’s quest across a lavish and colourful world of steampunk and alchemy as he attempts to follow his dreams. The story features lost cities, pirates, anarchists, an exotic carnival, and a rigid Watchmaker who imposes precision on every aspect of daily life.
I’m so pumped for this album and even more pumped to see just what kind of stops they pull out on this tour. Rush has been on fire for the past few tours and I’m sure this one will be no exception.
