Birth Information



Whereas Rush's first two releases, their self-titled
debut and Fly By Night, helped create a buzz among
hard rock fans worldwide, the more progressive third
release, Caress of Steel, confused many of their
supporters. The band knew it was now or never with
their fourth release, and they delivered just in time
— 1976's 2112 proved to be their much sought-after
commercial breakthrough and remains one of their most
popular albums. Instead of choosing between prog rock
or heavy rock, both styles are merged together to
create an interesting and original approach. The whole
entire first side is comprised of the classic title
track, which paints a chilling picture of a future
world where technology is in control (Peart's lyrics
for the piece being influenced by Ayn Rand). Comprised
of seven "sections," the track proved that the trio
was fast becoming rock's most accomplished
instrumentalists. The second side contains shorter
selections, such as the Middle Eastern-flavored "A
Passage to Bangkok" and the album-closing rocker
"Something for Nothing." 2112 is widely considered by
Rush fans as their first true "classic" album, the
first in a string of similarly high-quality albums. —
