With passion, mystery, and soul, our new single and video honor the memory of Neil Peart, the iconic drummer of Rush. Inspired by his profound lyrics and unmatched drumming, this tribute captures the essence of his influence on us all. This heartfelt tribute echoes his influence, from the freedom of music to the battle of the mind, capturing the essence of a legend who left his mark on the world.
This thought-provoking track dives headfirst into the complexities of contemporary society, delivering a searing critique of media manipulation, societal division, and the disorientation that many feel in today’s world. Originally written during the pandemic, Maurice Taylor, bassist and lyricist, described the inspiration as stemming from a time when the media amplified fear and confusion. “The ‘times’ referenced in the song go beyond the pandemic,” Taylor explains. “It’s about everything from fake news to the pressure of wokeness and how these forces sow division among us.”
Procrastination is something we all struggle with—promises made, plans delayed, and time lost. The Wait dives into the frustration of deferring what we know we should do, only to find ourselves disappointed when the moment finally arrives. Inspired by the long gaps between creative works—both as fans and as artists—this song explores the tension between anticipation and reality. How long is too long to wait? And when we finally arrive, does it ever feel like enough?
"Fooled" reflects the strange contradictions of our digital lives. As screens replace shared spaces and AI-generated images flood our feeds, we drift further into curated realities and algorithm-driven echo chambers. Generational gaps widen, human connection frays, and truth becomes harder to define. This song explores that sense of being misled—fooled—by a system that thrives on division and illusion.
