As the cosmos prepares to realign in strange systems, Rush and progressive metal fans on Earth are gathering for the unique numerological event known in North America as 2-1-12, or "Rush Day," a celebration of all things quirky, far-reaching, and progressive in heavy metal music. Host Ian Christe ("Sound of the Beast") takes a page from progressive metal bible Mean Deviation, and opens a gateway to metallic Rush covers by James Murphy, Sacrifice, Mindless Self Indulgence, Fates Warning, and Thought Industry, plus heavy old and new material by the Canadian metal masters themselves. Know your square and cubic roots!
