The new Rush album was released this week. It appears to be getting mixed reviews from long-time fans, but that's nothing new - I myself was initially underwhelmed by Test For Echo ten years ago, but now enjoy it as one of my favorites. I think Rush might be an example of something one of my music instructors pointed out once: Creatively speaking, one's musical evolution can look like an X-shaped linear graph. At the outset, you may pursue a wide variety of styles and ideas, as depicted by the wide left side of the X. Over time, what you do well is gradually refined and narrowed until you reach the X's intersection, which represents your definitive work. Then progressing further, you undergo a gradual departure from this vertex towards a widening range of pursuits. Or some shit like that. Hear the single "Far Cry" at rush.com.
