Alex Lifeson was recently interviewed by Postmedia's Mark Daniell for the Toronto Sun, where Lerxst talks about his Envy of None project's new Stygian Wavz album, Rush 50, and more (thanks RushFanForever). Stygian Wavz released just this past Friday, and Rush 50 back on March 21st. Here Alex is asked about what he thinks is the most underrated Rush album:

... Caress of Steel was a difficult record. It was super important for us and we loved it but it wasn't received well. Is it underrated? I don't know. We were new trying things and there wasn't an audience for it I guess. So that doesn't necessarily mean that it was underrated. ...

You can watch the entire interview below or on YouTube.
