FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MARCH 18, 2002
RUSH REVEAL VAPOR TRAILS;
TRIO'S FIRST ALL-NEW ALBUM IN 5 YEARS DUE MAY 14TH;
"ONE LITTLE VICTORY" HITS ROCK RADIO IN APRIL;
NORTH AMERICAN TOUR PLANNED FOR SUMMER/FALL
Anthem/Atlantic recording group Rush has announced details of their eagerly awaited new album, Vapor Trails. The 13-track collection - produced by Rush with engineer Paul Northfield (Marilyn Manson, Hole) - is set for release on May 14th.
Vapor Trails sees the legendary power trio - Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Peart - redefining their intensely individualistic music, blending their famously complex dynamics with driving melodic hooks and a passionate, personal lyrical approach. Tracks like the kinetic "How It Is," the emotive "Sweet Miracle," and the propulsive album-opening "One Little Victory" are angular, atmospheric and altogether extraordinary. With the visionary new Vapor Trails, Rush has taken a bold step forward, making it clear that one of rock 'n' roll's all-time great bands are more than just back, they're better than ever.
The album will be heralded by the single, "One Little Victory," slated to ship to rock radio outlets nationwide on March 29th. The band is currently finalizing plans for a major North American tour. Tentatively set to kick off in late June, the trek will mark Rush's first live performances since July 1997. The tour's first leg will be announced shortly.
Vapor Trails is Rush's 17th studio recording, and their first all-new collection in over 5 years. The Canadian trio's 22 albums have all been certified RIAA gold-or-better, with cumulative worldwide sales of over 35 million. Their most recent Anthem/Atlantic releases are 1996's gold-certified "TEST FOR ECHO," followed by 1998's gold-certified multi-disc live set, "DIFFERENT STAGES."
