Rush's brand new single, "Far Cry", is available for streaming in its entirety at www.rush.com. The track comes off the Canadian trio's new album, "Snakes & Arrows", due on May 1 via Anthem/Atlantic.

"Snakes & Arrows" promises to be the most organic-sounding Rush effort in decades, having been influenced by their experience of making "Feedback", the band's 2004 EP of classic-rock covers.

Lee told Revolver: "Playing those songs that we loved and grew up on, I think it helped us remember how sometimes it's the simplicity or the directness of an arrangement that really makes a great song. And the other thing is, we played all together in the studio for a lot of the 'Feedback' stuff. That's something that a lot of producers had been pushing us to do for a while but which we hadn't done in years. It was great to turn off the click and just play — you know, not worry so much about being so, quote, metronomic — and that definitely carried over into this record."
