Looks awesome!   As for the Red album cover. I am pumped because it will make for some great Rush Tees. My older red/with logos was my favorite and it's worn out, couldn't find replacement.   Sounds great, but it's such a tease and want MORE!   Songtrack titles are very enticing and the concept is reminiscent of Steampunk mixed with the fantasy novel (series), "Name of the Wind". I like this image better for the cover myself. (It's now my computer wallpaper as well). We have a third for the computer wallpaper thing.   Love it!   The album is long overdue IMO. Yep, I love this image (A Clockwork Ocean?), and immediately made it my wallpaper as well. If it were the proper size and aspect ratio for my monitor, I'd use it, too. But it's nowhere near good enough for a 1920x1200 display. Just take the background from Rush.com.     1. Use Firefox or Safari browser 2. Go to Rush.com 3. Select View from the top menu of your browser 4. Choose "No Style" option from Page Style 5. Scroll down to the image 6. Save the background image. 7. Set as Desktop.

if things get boring over the weekend I'll show you guys what I've had set as my wallpaper for the last week or so.

Just became a member of the wallpaper club, it looks awesome!

 

On the write-up for the Classic Rock Fanpack, it states that if we preorder it, we will get it on June 11th, "a month before the UK release date."

 

I'm assuming this means the UK won't get it until 11 July! Brilliant marketing plan by Classic Rock if this is the case, every Rush fan on this side of the pond will buy one!

 

EDIT: Just read the Roadrunner UK press release, and it says standard release is on July 9th.

Its been a very long time since a Rush album really delivered on the hype for me so Im just kind of hanging back in the wings, not really expecting anything too great.   Of course I hope it is, but I wont let myself get all fired up just to be let down like I usually am so the old expect the worst hope for the best routine for me. Theyve turned me into a pessimist with pretty much everything since the late 80s. Better to have low expectations which allow you to be pleasantly surprised, than to have unrealistic and unattainable expectations that guarantee you'll be disappointed. Expectations low or high, discussing Rush is far more pleasant than focusing on work...if only I was paid to discuss our favorite band... I hear ya brother. Hard to stay focused at work today.

I started thinking about it after I posted and decided to poke around the source code at Rush.com. I got the background, the airship and the Rush logo to build into my own wallpaper. The background is plenty wide, but the aspect ratio is off so I cropped some of the sky and a little bit of the rocks. I ended up not using the airship because I'm not thrilled with the lighting on it. Looks like a cheap comp on the background, TBH.

 

Love the background, though. Aces.

Cuidar I love it when you guys have a go at Portuguese...   Unfortunately I have a meeting with Halliburton in 30 minutes, so I HAVE to focus.

QUOTE (EmotionDetector @ Apr 11 2012, 10:00 AM) Judging by the pre-order page on RushBackstage, looks like it is a digi-pack again! I hate those damn things!  http://www.rushbackstage.com/rushbackstage...gels/index.html It's likely but it could also be a slipcover. That's what I was thinking Snowdoggy...

Now that we have a tracklisting, how long do you think it will be before TRF gets a new member sporting a user name related to the new song titles?

I'll be that guy. Figured that since I've been a guest for so long I might as well take advantage of the opportunity!

Yeah I know- surprised me too. I was thinking about "CarnieAnarchist" but liked this better.

[Godeater2112]

My only complaint with the new video clip is that there isn't a repeat button. It's distracting to work to have to change tabs and press *play* again every 40 seco...

 

 

Ok I'm back. So yeah it's distracting to have to press play again every 40 seconds.
