Rush - 2112 (40th Anniversary) 3 LP Deluxe Vinyl (602557202700)

Product Details

Product Description

This album is a 2016 reissue deluxe 3LP pressing of Rush 2112 (40th Anniversary). Still in its factory packaging, this Rush 2112 deluxe 3 LP vinyl is new in mint condition.

Rush's 2112 album is archetypal high-concept heavy/art-rock, featuring an interconnected suite of songs and a futuristic science fiction-inspired lyrical theme (courtesy of drummer/sole lyricist Neil Peart).

The first half of the classic rock album features "2112" proper, a series of interrelated tunes that paint a portrait of a 1984/Brave New World-style future, where music and emotion are outlawed. Ultimately, our hero discovers a guitar and uses it to fight the powers that be, all to the accompaniment of vaguely Led Zeppelin-derived heavy rock riffs and daunting time signatures. The final five tunes are unrelated to the concept piece but continue in a similar musical vein, though a little balladry is mixed in towards the end.

This 40th Anniversary Deluxe 3 LP (602557202700) pressing of Rush 2112 was released by Mercury Records.
