Prog 169

"With their twin neck guitars and knowing smiles harkening back to a golden era, Rush grace the cover of the new issue of Prog Magazine. We chat to Geddy and Alex about their friendship, about the band and about their upcoming Fifty Something tour. We also get the story of the band's 1984 album, Grace Under Pressure, which has just been reissued as a Deluxe Edition box set!

Anthony Phillips talks pianos instead of his usual guitars; Steve Hillage and Miquette Giraudy explain that although System 7’s music is still driven by psych and prog, it occasionally dances to a slightly different beat; Richard Barbieri looks back on his days in Japan and discusses the possibility of new Porcupine Tree music; and Magenta reveal why it was back to basics for new album Tarot.

Einar Solberg, Spock’s Beard, Green Carnation, Long Distance Calling, VLMV and Major Parkinson all bring us up to speed on their new albums. We also speak to Cyrille Verdeaux of French proggers Clearlight about the new box set on Cherry Red Records and find out what he’s up to at the moment.

There's a a free Rush artprint and this issue’s sampler is provided by the excellent Fruits der Mer label."
