Rush - Clockwork Angels - Stunning new effort

[toscano]

Really, a band that's been together 40 years and is as old as they are has no right making an album THIS good.

[Mudslider]

Never heard of them. 40 years? Who are they? Just kidding; looking forward to listening to the new tracks

[Jahfin]

For those that are interested, there's an ongoing discussion of Clockwork Angels (as well as all things Rush) here.

I had no idea they had even released it! I've been waiting for this since they released those two singles 2 years back.

It isn't out yet. It comes out next Tuesday.

These songs have been out for almost 2 years although the album will just be coming out.

Plus not everyone lives in the US.

There was a UK "fanpack" released already and fans who pre-ordered have been receiving them and uploading them.

So yeah it's not "released" yet in the US but it is out, leaked, and brilliant !

As far as the leak is concerned I don't believe in stealing from artists so I'll actually pay for it once it's released.

Me too.

Already paid for my vinyl version pre-ordered.

Will also get the CD at Best Buy, $9.99.

Awesome. Thanks for the info.

Yeah, they released them as singles on iTunes in 2010.

I thought Snakes and Arrows was their best album in years, so I'm really anticipating hearing this one.

For those who have heard it already, how does it compare to S&A?

As posted in the Rush thread they've also posted a lyric video for "Headlong Flight".

It doesn't compare.

It is miles better than S&A.

It's FANTASTIC! It sounds completely fresh! Very inventive!
