At Least A Year For New Rush
We\'re in for a bit of a wait for Clockwork Angels
Rush’s new album will not be released for at least another year, says frontman Geddy Lee.
In an interview with Brazil’s TV UOL Lee revealed that the record would take another year to finish as they hadn’t finished writing songs for the record yet. It had been hoped that as soon as the band finished their current touring cycle (the tour finishes on Sunday) the band would be heading into the studio to finish off the album and put it out early next year.
"The new album is still in production. We've recorded two songs so far, one of them called 'Caravan' and the other one called 'Brought Up To Believe' 'BU2B'. That's the beginning two songs of a whole kind of a concept album called 'Clockwork Angels'. We have about four other songs... five songs written, but not recorded yet. And we still have a couple of more songs that we want to write and then put the whole thing together. So I don't think the album will be ready for about a year."
In the interview, which you can watch below, Lee also revealed that there was a possibility that the band will release a live DVD or CD from their current tour.
"We record every night. We don't film every night but we have lots of cameras around. So invariably by the time this tour is finished we'll put together some sort of live representation of it. But what form that will take I'm not sure yet."
