FROM THE ARTIST
"Since Zebra is also a 3-piece band, we were always interested in what Rush was doing to add to their music. They used a lot of synths and although they used them differently than we did, I got a lot of good ideas for adding to our sound by watching them perform live.

I think Rush goes down as one of a handful of bands that managed to stay on top throughout their careers. Their music is as fresh and valid today as it was when it first came out."

-Randy Jackson (Zebra)

"Rush is proof that it is possible to be a success in rock by being the most unlikely to succeed. They never had screaming teenage girls as the core of their audience. They never sounded like they were trying to write hits. They never fit in with any other mainstream rock movement. They were average, normal looking guys who managed to find a sound that was different and exciting. They've also lasted longer than most rock bands and managed to maintain a loyal cult-like audience that exists to this day."

-Alex Skolnick (Alex Skolnick Trio, Testament)









ABOUT THE ARTIST
Lee, Lifeson and Peart have provided an often obsessive lifetime mission for countless of hopeful, thoughtful, ambitious musicians through a wide scope of times and climes. The all-walks array of musicians you see gathered here is testimony to that fact. Rush were heavy when heavy was not cool, Rush comprised a clear and clear-headed three guys playing their hearts and minds out on sleeve and stage. Rush made you want to play better than that other guy in class, also providing a reading list for mind-feeding while you recovered from bleeding fingers, tender blood blisters and tendonitis. And they did this in waves, to full currents of aspiring rockers, beginning thereabouts with underground breakthrough 2112 in 1976, that record combining science fiction with philosophy (Ayn Rand) and literature (George Orwell), metal with progressive rock (Rush single-handedly birthed progressive metal a huge musical genre today), also delivering one of the early concept albums. Rush is one of the few bands to conquer the divide between the more intimate progressive rock listener and FM rock radio. When bands like Yes and ELP were having trouble staying on the airwaves, Rush maintained their visibility. Always updating their sound but keeping those familiar touches.
