RUSH Members Talk About Bringing '2112' To 'Guitar Hero: Warriors Of Rock'

July 20, 2010

Chris Barth of RollingStone.com reports that RUSH has teamed with Activision for the fall release of "Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock", which features a story-based Quest Mode that includes with hero wannabes playing the entirety of "2112", a seven-part suite from the Canadian band's 1976 album of the same name. The story of the game's final segment roughly follows RUSH's opus, and will be narrated by lead singer Geddy Lee and guitarist Alex Lifeson. "In our story, the caves of 2112 are where our hero finds the lost guitar," says Lee. "This rediscovery of music is much like the 'Guitar Hero' warriors' journey to find the Demi-God of Rock's legendary guitar, which has been trapped in a cavern."
