Barnett Associate Professor of Communication Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania [email protected] Relevant Rhetoric, Vol. 7 (2016): Rush’s Lyrical Rhetoric of Oppression and Liberation 2 On April 18, 2013, members of the Canadian power trio Rush were among the artists inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, a well-deserved honor that was long overdue. Formed in August 1968, Rush would join artists like Pink Floyd and Yes in shaping the music movement that would come to be categorized as “progressive” rock, or “prog rock,” a rock music sub-genre that Rush.

(~Spirit of Radio· from Permanent Waves) In 1974, there was an album called Rush, and a fresh, youthful threesome from Canada pounding out heavy rock rhythms. Six years and another six discs later, the airwaves are crackling and bristling all over the country with the sound of Permanent Waves, Rush'a latest album. As of ~rch 1st, weeks after its release, it is Number Five on the charts, and the single, ~Spirit of Radio· is making its own waves. The first taste of what was to come occurred shortly before the release of Rush ' s second album in 1974, Fly By Night, when drummer John Rutsey left the group and Neil Peart arrived. With the full consent of founding members Alex Lifeson (guitar) and Geddy Lee (bass, vocals), Peart soon became chief lyricist, and the music be- gan t<) take on a less straight-forward, more mystical form. That year, the band received a Juno Award (Canadian Grammy) as The Most Promising New Group of the Year. A third platter, Caress of Steel, saw this development taking further shape, with a whole side being -,- devoted to the t ~le of the quest for the "Fountain of Lamneth." But it wasn't until their fourth album in '76 that Rush r eally de­ fined their role as storytellers of sci-fi. Entitl ed 2112, an entire side of the album was once again taken up with the musical relating of an epic tale.

The band is composed of bassist, keyboardist, and lead vocalist Geddy Lee, guitarist Alex Lifeson, and drummer and lyricist Neil Peart. The band and its membership went through a number of re-configurations between 1968 and 1974, achieving their current form when Peart replaced original drummer John Rutsey in July 1974, two weeks before the group's first United States tour. Since the release of the band's self-titled debut album in March 1974, Rush has become known for its musicianship, complex compositions, and eclectic lyrical motifs drawing heavily on science fiction, fantasy, and philosophy, as well as addressing humanitarian, social, emotional, and environmental concerns.
