SIGNALS

The beginning of a new stage of Rush, where the fictional stories and epic atmospheres are no longer there, and give way to a closer approach to everyday life. The heavy and clearly progressive sounds are displaced by further experimentation with styles such as New Wave, Reggae and Electronic, among others, which acquire a more relevant role in the approach of their music.

Signals is a transitional album that generates controversy, like any change that involves breaking away from certain paradigms to embark on new horizons. And in this new approach, there are more positive points than negative

With their unmistakable label, they deliver a group of very good songs, much more accompanied by synthesizers, and with the guitars at a lower decibels, less harsh and more affordable, among which Subdivisions, The Weapon, the well- known New World, stand out especially Man and Losing It. Both Analog Kid and Digital Man are very good songs too, but one notch below the previous ones, and Chemistry and Countdown, while good songs, are perhaps the least favored points of the work.

Even so, Rush round off a very good album, and it will mark the way forward for their next materials.
