Readers’ Poll: The Best Albums of 2012: Rush, ‘Clockwork Angels’
Last year was a banner year for Rush: Along with the release of their 20th LP, a new concept record titled, Clockwork Angels, the beloved rockers were finally voted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
“We’re kind of in a groove right now,” frontman Geddy Lee told Rolling Stone of the band’s recent good fortunes and recent touring. “We feel really good about the way we’re playing. We feel like we’ve raised our game in terms of musicianship and our level of chops. We’re also very excited about the way Clockwork Angels turned out. The fan acceptance of it has been very cool. We’re happy to go out and bring it around the globe.”
