New to InObscuria? Typically what we do is exhume obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. In the case of this particular episode, we are leaning towards the FORGOTTEN. Although, a band that is fifth behind The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, KISS, and Aerosmith for the most consecutive gold or platinum studio albums by a rock band in the United States is hardly forgotten… In any case, we are paying tribute to one of the greatest drummers of all time! Rest In Peace Neil. There will never be another like you!

Songs this week include:

1. BU2B from Caravan (Single) (2010)
2. Max Webster & Rush – “Battle Scar” from Universal Juveniles (1980)
3. Circumstances from Hemispheres (1978)
4. Return Of The Prince from Caress Of Steel (1975)
5. Malignant Narcissism from Snakes & Arrows (2007)
6. Bob & Doug McKenzie – “Take Off” from Great White North (1981)
7. Garden Road from Agora Ballroom, Cleveland (1974)
8. Chain Lightning from Presto (1989)

In our first "music only" episode, Ryan and Jay talk to members of the progressive rock band, YYNOT. We found these guys while browsing YouTube and were blown away by their sound and musicianship. While they're well-known for their amazing covers of classic RUSH tunes, we were equally impressed with their original music. Even with a solid helping of the Canadian power trio's influence weaved throughout their chord progressions and arrangements, they maintain their own vibe and have their own stories to tell.

This episode includes a fun interview with Billy Alexander (guitar) and Tim Starace (bass) from the band, along with 3 full tracks from their Sept 2019 release, Resonance. We thoroughly enjoyed spending time with these guys and hope you'll give them a listen. You can learn more about them on their website, www.yynotband.com. 

During the interview, we discuss how they got their start, and how they pull off such a great live show vibe, despite being located in different states. We also get a little nerdy about music gear and favorite RUSH albums before talk about beer and other enjoyable refreshments!

Rush bassist/singer Geddy Lee joins Eddie to promote his new book, 'Big Beautiful Book of Bass.' He discusses how it came together, his favorite gear, his thoughts on Rush's anniversary reissues, and dishes on whether or not he thinks he will play music again!
