Very cool book on Rush. Situates the band as a middle class phenomenon staying away from but acknowledging other tropes (geek, hyper-white, male). Reinforces the view that Rush was completely unique but nevertheless castigates them for not producing anything new unlike Zeppelin, Floyd, Talking Heads, The Police, Blondie (and The Cars) and King Crimson, choosing instead to stay within a technical wizardry (for the times) sandbox.
