Just in case you wanted to know about the creative process behind the new Rush album, Clockwork Angels, drummer and lyricist Neil Peart explains all in his latest lengthy post on his website. He says, "Improvisation was a major theme for the band leading up to this album. In live performance, during the Time Machine tour in 2010-11, we were each aiming to be more spontaneous in our 'spotlight moments, and it thus became a shared ambition, and a spirit that carried into every element of this recording."
Peart says, like the rest of their catalog, these songs "weren’t made with the intention of being listened to on the radio or in the car or with ear buds. They were made to be played...by us... Like the 19 albums that have come before, these songs are 'Made 2 B Played' again and again for years. And, if the fates allow, they will be."
Rush starts touring in support of Clockwork Angels on September 7th in Manchester, New Hampshire.
