Rush release new single from upcoming 20th studio album
Rush has released the new single, Headlong Flight, from the highly anticipated new album, Clockwork Angels. The album, which is due out on the 8th of June, will be the
renowned trio’s first new collection of original material in over five years
and their first studio release via Anthem/Roadrunner records and the band’s 20th
studio album.
The recording of Clockwork Angels began in April 2010 with Grammy award winning producer Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Deftones) - who also collaborated with the band on their last studio album, 2007’s Snakes & Arrows. Rush co-produced both records.
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. The RIAA has certified rush for the third most consecutive gold/platinum studio albums by a rock band, topped only by the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. Rush has also been recognized with a number of Juno awards and multiple Grammy nominations, including one for the acclaimed documentary “Rush: Beyond The Lighted Stage” at this year’s Gala event. Enjoying a recent pop culture renaissance, Rush made rare television appearances - their first in over 30 years - on Showcase's Trailer Park Boys and Comedy Central’s The Colbert Report and a memorable cameo in the film “I Love You, Man.” A career-chronicling Rolling Stone feature summed up the renowned rock trio’s continuing artistic vitality by observing, “it’s true that Rush doesn’t mean today what it did in ’76 or even ’96. It may mean more.”
