Free Music Review: Rush - '2112' (Mercury)
Hit: 5 Stars
Review no. 280. First thrilled hard rock fans in spring, 1976 - as this was of course, the Canadian power trio's 4th release as it was also their make-or-break album. Believe I may even still have my vinyl copy of this record, but it's sure nice to have the remastered CD as well. Tunes that most (if not all) true Rush fans will never grow tired of are the fantastic twenty-minute sonic opener "2112 Overture / The Temple Of The Syrinx", the awesome "Twilight Zone" and the high-energy rocker "Something For Nothing". Also liked "Tears", wow! It really has been awhile since I've heard this disc. Highly recommended.
2112 Poster
Only Rush could have pulled this off, and only in the '70s. 2112--the title suite of the band's 1976 breakthrough album--is a comically pretentious, futuristic rock opera written by a nerdy drummer and sung by a whiny-voiced geek. It also happens to be a great piece of rock & roll that lifts the listener through a variety of moods and textures from genteel acoustic ("Oracle") to thrilling metal ("The Temples of Syrinx"). Perhaps realizing that they had taken conceptualism about as far as it could go, even these guys backed off on the epic hero stuff for later releases. 2112 still stands as one of the great signposts of the prog-rock era. --Michael RubyPop Music CDs
