Back in October Alex Lifeson's Envy of None project with Andy Curran, guitarist Alfio Annibalini and vocalist Maiah Wynne, announced that they'd be releasing a new album in the Spring of 2025, and debuted a music video for the album's first single - Not Dead Yet. In December they released a second single titled Under the Stars, and earlier this week revealed the name and release date of the album. Envy of None's sophomore release is titled Stygian Wavz and will release via Kscope Records on March 14th with pre-orders available here. The project also released a video for the album's title track which you can check out below or on YouTube, and the entire tracklist is as follows:

As we first reported back in October, Neil Peart's 2004 BMW R1200GS motorcycle will be up for bidding in an upcoming Mecum Auction later this month. The Auction will take place during the 34th annual Vintage & Antique Motorcycle Auction in Las Vegas later this month. The bike was ridden on Rush's R30 Anniversary Tour and ultimately sold to a member of the tour's road crew. The winning bidder will also receive the original purchase receipt signed by Neil, along with 2 Neil Peart drum sticks. The bike is expected to sell in the $40-$50K range. You can see photos of the bike and get all the auction details here.

Last month, Sebastian Bach was featured on AXS TV's Vinyl Obsession podcast where he goes through his favorite records of all time and talks to Eric Young about the stories of why they are so important to him. Bach is a huge Rush fan, and one of the album's he chose was Rush's Exit ... Stage Left. You can listen to him talk about why he chose the album in this YouTube video at the 11-minute mark (thanks RushFanForever).

That's all for this week. Have a great weekend!
