It’s Podwork Angels: The Rush Hour, a podcast dedicated to the Canadian rock band Rush! Justin Mancini of TheCineMaverick.com & Cinema Joes is joined by fellow Cinema Joes podcast host Noah Franc of FrancNoir, as well as Luke Martin, host of Talking the Coda, as they delve into the discography of Canada’s favorite sons, from 1974 to 2012.
In the ninth episode of the podcast, Justin, Luke, Noah, and recurring guest Chris examine the band’s first foray into their so-called “synth era.” They drop literary allusions to Hemingway and Donne, contemplate Neil Peart’s extensive takedown of suburbia, and make favorable comparisons with one album track to Deep Purple’s “Highway Star.” And as always, the hosts recommend more artists for your listening pleasure.
