Envy Of None Announce New Album Stygian Wavz (14th March 2025)
H to O replied to Papa Emeritus's topic in Rush
This is an excellent album. Excellent vocals from Maiah, great keyboards, bass, and particularly some fantastic guitar work from Alex. Some deep and brewing in the background and many moments right out front. Loved EON’s previous work, and this album is another step forward for them :) My favorites currently are The Story, Thrill Of The Chase, The End and Stygian Waves. Album really flows well start to finish. Once I reach the closer, I just hit repeat to listen the whole thing again. That’s always a good sign!!! -
I’m stuck in a loop since yesterday. Reach the end, pause, repeat… Some parts I wasn’t so sure about yesterday, but now, the whole damn thing is glorious!!!

Neil's motorcycle is coming up for auction
H to O replied to That One Guy's topic in NEIL PEART - 1952-2020
Yes, I’m pretty sure when he was on tour he always had two bikes. The second bike would be riden by Michael, his friend and tour security guy, and sometimes Bubba, his friend from Canada. I think it was very rare for him to ride alone during tours. lerxt1990 mentioned the book: R30, A Concert Tour By Motorcycle. This is indeed an excellent book, features the cycle that is for sale, and is a really cool snapshot of Neil’s travels and the R30 tour. I’ve got this book on deck for a second reading soon!!! -
Neil's motorcycle is coming up for auction

The auction site info states it was the one he rode on the R30 tour. It comes with a set of used drum sticks and other miscellaneous items. -
Cool tune! Plus, a couple RUSH billboard signs!!!

Just gave Maiah’s new album a full proper spin. What a beautiful voice and music! Wonderful work by all of the musicians. Heavy in its own special way… And now, I think I’ll listen to it again!!!
-
What a great Halloween treat! 🪦 🎃 👻 Cool little tune, and the video is fun too. Thanks EON!!!
-
I’ve had the songs for a few days, but I wanted to listen to MFH again before I listened to the new ones. It was nice to revisit MFH!!! I’m going to have to come back to Gone, but I’m loving I Am…You Are! Ben Mink!!! WOW!!!

Just got an EON email with this video for That Was Then from the EP. Email also mentioned that they are currently working on EON 2!!!

That was awesome!!!

I’m enjoying the new EON EP. The new songs are a nice extension of the first album, and I like “That Was Then” the most. A little bit more Alex soloing on that song, although it’s just atmospheric riffing behind the vocal parts during the outro. A little reminiscent of the riffing he does during the Roll the Bones rap section. I prefer the original Dog’s Life and Dumb over the remix versions on this release, and not entirely sure of the rationale of remixing these songs, but hey, 5 songs are better than 3!!! Not a bad addition to my music collection for $5.99! Rock On EON!!!

NEUE REGEL IS HERE: TRF's Queensryche appreciation thread
H to O replied to fraroc's topic in Music Of The Spheres
Took a few listens to adjust to the new QR album for me. Once it all melded though… wow!!! This one’s gonna be in regular rotation for a while… DNA ROCKS!!! I also really enjoyed the interview Rod in Toronto, you do an awesome job! -
I really noticed how different YYZ sounded with Omar’s style. He covered it all great in his own way. He’s a drummer that really pulls back on the beat, where Neil is propulsive and drives the beat forward. Interesting contrast. I could hear where Neil would have pushed YYZ differently, and it seemed Alex and Geddy were having to adjust to Omar’s different groove. It was all awesome!!!
-
What a huge surprise!!! So cool to see Geddy and Alex on stage together, and Dave and Omar did great! Unique seeing these songs played with Dave and Omar’s styles. They were all smiles, and surely Taylor and Neil are smiling too!!! 🙂🙂 I only saw Geddy and Alex’s part, and Wolf Van Halen’s part (OMG - Wolf!!!). I’m looking forward to seeing the rest!

Happy Birthday Alex!!! 🥳 🎉 🎂
