I did see an interview with Danny tho where he said they have a ton of other material written. Like, enough for another album! Oh man, how cool would it be if they release another one in a year or 2?
I won't be holding my breath, but one can hope!

Sure! I'm not sure of your interest level, but here's another great song that they structured (loosely) around the Fibonacci sequence. "Lateralus". This video does a great job of breaking down how the shifting time signatures and number of syllables in the lyrics borrow from the sequence.

Layer on layer of complexity. A lot of their songs are fairly long, and they evolve and grow as they build to a climax. Very heavy.
Okay, I'm gushing... lol. I do like other bands and music.

I'll check that out, Thanks! Only an hour away from my house but too far for my antenna so I'll have to stream it.
Re: What are you listening to? (Music)
WOW, I was expecting a thousand "yes of course replies"!
Jeff Parets who passed away not long ago started it before Y2K , his wife (Audrey) hosts the show now. Its all about rock, rock history acoustic style. NOT coffee shop music. awesome rock unplugged.
If you like relaxing rock from the past, check it out. NOT a talk show either.
great stories on the music also
Casts Saturday and Sunday

Girlschool Hit and Run Revisited -- on vinyl.
Also saw them live, opening for Iron Maiden, with Scorpions headlining back in 82.

Holy crap. I just stumbled across some live Rush. This video lives up to the title!

Wow! That intro is SO heavy! I have a whole new respect for Rush now.
Re: What are you listening to? (Music)
Awesome video. Great band. I saw them a couple of times live. RIP Neil Peart.

I have been a big fan of Rush for as long as they have been around. Peart's passing really hit me hard - was hoping to see them a few more times. They are one of only a handful of bands I have seen that sound and perform better live than in a studio. Their musicianship is simply unmatched - most listeners don't realize they are a trio - often sounding like a 5-piece band live...
