Rush – Grace Under Pressure – 200g Direct Metal Master Vinyl LP
Grace Under Pressure finds Rush entering one of their most atmospheric and forward-thinking phases, balancing their progressive rock roots with a sleek, synth-driven edge. This 200g Direct Metal Master (DMM) pressing presents the 1984 album with excellent definition, dynamic focus and low-noise clarity — a strong fit for a record built on precision and subtle detail.
Featuring key tracks such as “Distant Early Warning,” “Red Sector A,” “The Body Electric,” and “Between the Wheels,” the album showcases the trio’s tight interplay and evolving production approach. Geddy Lee’s crisp bass lines, Alex Lifeson’s layered guitar textures and Neil Peart’s sharp rhythmic complexity all come through with confidence on this heavyweight edition.
The combination of 200-gram vinyl and DMM mastering offers noticeably improved stability and cleaner high-frequency response, giving the album’s dynamic shifts and atmospheric arrangements plenty of room to breathe. The result is a polished, engaging listen that brings fresh life to a standout chapter in Rush’s catalogue.
