Arguably the best rendition of this song , or any Rush song for that matter, I’ve ever heard. The drummer hits every offbeat, accent, symbol/ride pattern, with the same flare and attack as Neil did. Ditto for the guitar and bass parts- and his voice is SPOT on! Electric!!
I played professionally for years in a tribute band. The odds of these 3 incredible top notch musicians who know every note of every song is one in a billion.
I have been playing Rush for 40 + years, been in many tribute bands and heard a lot of tribute bands but you guys are the best I have ever heard!!!! Hands down!
Just saw them on Saturday at the Levoy Theater in Millville NJ - I left there telling my buddy that was Geddy, I don't care what anybody says! lol These guys might just be the best tribute band of all time in terms of sounding like the originals. All 3 are top notch musicians and who else on earth can sing, play bass and keys all at the same time AND sound and move like Geddy? Masters of their crafts, mad props to the whole band! Thank you guys for doing Rush right!
How does a band like this come together? Like how many things have to be in perfect alignment for this to happen? 3 guys who happen to be musically inclined, who like Rush, Like... a lot, can play like them, sing like Geddy, all live nearby and are like "Hey, lets start a rush tribute band, that is perfect...no exeptions...lol
These guys are the real deal outside of being Rush themselves. I got a chance to meet them and I'm humble! thank you for keeping the music alive for the newer generation to enjoy!
Honestly, i'm surprised Geddy's voice could be matched so well with a falsetto. His singing is very strong, almost scream-like, and that is incredibly tough to reproduce. Awesome cover!
I've been a Rush fan for 39 years. You guys are the best tribute band I have ever heard. I know this song like the back of my hand. This is a dead bang spot on rendition. Congrats!! Love it. Rush on my fellow Rushians!
I grew up with rush and Canada I seen their first concerts with donbest the first drummer you guys are awesome Getty Alex and Neal would be so proud of you I'm sure they are. All I got to say is fantastic gentleman awesome unreal 👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🤔
Literally laughed out loud when he started singing - in a good way! I cannot believe how much he sounds like Geddy. This is such a sick cover. Excellent musicianship and a reverence for the original. Just wow
OMG the singer is fantastic. What the...I mean seriously, I thought it's impossible to sing like Geddy especially with his 70's voice, man, you're brilliant.
I don't think I've ever heard anyone pull off a better 70's era of Geddy's vocals. Even Geddy himself can't pull off this material anymore. Just incredible. The whole thing is amazing. I second the Middletown Dreams request.
You're good, there's no denying it. I think it's safe to say, you have to give us the full Cygnus X-1: hemispheres. Just so I could die happy. Pretty please. I'm waiting..................
Unbelievable!! I’ve been listening to Rush since I discovered them when Roll the 🦴s came out. They have been my favorite band since then as well. I was pretty torn up when they finally decided to call it quits...then I found Lotus Land. You guys are absolutely spot on. Every note, chord, kick, snare and cymbal. I’d say that you guys were Rush reincarnated except they’re still alive. If somebody was playing this video behind my back, I’d swear it was straight off Hemispheres. Don’t ever stop. And please do a video like this of Analog Kid.
Possibly the best Rush Tribute band i have seen, excellent on very level, even vocals are great. Shame you are not in UK... would love to see you live.. THANK YOU,, and looking forward to more,
My jaw is on the floor. With this power, precision, and mix; what I wonder would it take for this band to cover the entire Hemispheres album? A commission? I’ll pitch in if so. *Seriously.*
I was jamming along ..these guys are pretty frikn good..then dude started...When our weary world was young....holy crap!..I bout fell out me chair!!...I thought they were just playing the vocals from Hemispheres disc..lol....well done there Lotus Land
For me, the song and the mixing is fantastic here in this video! I´ve suggested others classics with this structure, such as Subdivisions and among other dozens!
Wow.. just wow guys. I was enjoying the music noticing the bass player putting in a few Geddy doubles in other spots but fitting very nicely. But when the bass player starting singing, I was floored!
The hardest part for Rush cover bands to nail seems to be the bass+vocals combo. A lot of great bass players who can't pull of the multitasking or who sound nothing like Geddy. This guy nailed it.
the sound is there! please don't take this as criticism from an old fanatic...but I wanna see two bass drums, and dye the guitarists hair blonde... but seriously ,I bet u guys have some super badass originals! I want an album!
that was truly incredible, from getting that special start sound fading in over your perfect playing with everything in place and then the singing starts and I just sit here with a huge smile on my face - great stuff guys
Wow. these guys are fantastic. So good to see and hear Rush live music again now that Neil has passed and so did the band. Hope Lotus Land tours my local area. I would see them.
WOW this is the 1st time i heard your band and am now listening to other videos of yours. I am 60, a musician for Piano Keyboards and Guitars, saw RUSH a good 21 times and YES you are by far THEE best RUSH cover band out there. If you ever come to the Bay Area of California i want to see you.. Thanks for your dedication guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Holly Cow guys , you are AWESOME !!! Love that you respect every note and ejecute it perfectly clean , and yes , the voice sends me back to that same record Hemispheres . Congrats guys you just earned 1 more follower . Thanks for sharing this beauty .
This is an UNBELIEVABLE band.
Impossible to believe they are not Rush!!!!
It's almost like Alex, Geddy and Neil invited you over to watch them jam.
I thought this was good until the dude started singing... HOLY CRIPES! He sounds just like Geddy in his prime!
Thats what i said too--OMG
It's like a trip back into the studio in 1977 right?

Singer reminds me of Kim Mitchell back in the day 😆
Arguably the best rendition of this song , or any Rush song for that matter, I’ve ever heard.

Electric!!
Just remarkable how true to the original this is! Somebody please send this to Alex and Geddy.
This is undoubtedly the best Rush tribute band
OMG Chris’s vocals are the closest to Geddy’s 70s voice I’ve ever heard! Bravo!
YES SIR! ABSOLUTELY!
wow that is spot on
The best
I played professionally for years in a tribute band. The odds of these 3 incredible top notch musicians who know every note of every song is one in a billion.
And here we are
Could not have put it better, these guys are superb!
This guy's voice blew me away. My god.
+Nick Paternostro Thanks Nick!
I got chills when he started singing.
This group is so good that i hear there’s a Canadian trio that formed a Lotus Land tribute band. Drummer is quite good. Neil somethin or other.
😂
Not just a cover. These guys play with power and conviction - like THEY wrote it.
I don't care how many times I hear this every time is mind blowing.
I was so floored by the music I just realized the video is is in black and white.
Man, I love to see RUSH's music treated with such commitment to accuracy...it is the largest form of respect and gratitude.
Yes - AND they corrected the always too low bass in Rush mixes, this is much better mixed than the originals (IMHO off course...)
I have been playing Rush for 40 + years, been in many tribute bands and heard a lot of tribute bands but you guys are the best I have ever heard!!!! Hands down!

I was never big on this album but this bands rendition made me revisit and truly appreciate what a
great piece of work this album is.
Rush lives on!!!!!! pleeeeeeease tour!!!!!!!
Best Rush coverband I´ve come across on youtube so far. Fantastic bass player!
he's amazing LIVE.
This is the best cover of hemispheres I have ever or will ever see.
These guys are the real deal outside of being Rush themselves. I got a chance to meet them and I'm humble! thank you for keeping the music alive for the newer generation to enjoy!
Oh my fuck, what an awesome rendition!!
Honestly, i'm surprised Geddy's voice could be matched so well with a falsetto. His singing is very strong, almost scream-like, and that is incredibly tough to reproduce. Awesome cover!
In case it was unclear, he did the falsetto on the second verse, and that's what I was referring to.
Marshall Testa
All are superb!
Fantastic - super tight. Best Rush covers are when the bass also sings! 👍👍
Drummer is superb!
No one does it better and never will. These guys are the masters of tribute for Rush
Definitely the best of all the Rush tribute acts!!
As a lifelong Rush fan, I can only say I can't believe how good that was!!!!!! Flipping awesome!!!!
This blew me away...REALLY!!
I saw these guys over the summer they were fantastic
Best vocal of Geddy I have ever heard no doubt about it.
I've been a Rush fan for 39 years. You guys are the best tribute band I have ever heard. I know this song like the back of my hand. This is a dead bang spot on rendition. Congrats!! Love it. Rush on my fellow Rushians!
Thank you very much!
Saw Lotus Land last Saturday night. Almost as good as the real thing. Compensation for us broken hearted Rush fans , these guys rock
I grew up with rush and Canada I seen their first concerts with donbest the first drummer you guys are awesome Getty Alex and Neal would be so proud of you I'm sure they are. All I got to say is fantastic gentleman awesome unreal 👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🤔
WOW !!!!! HOLY RUSH !!!!!! THAT VOICE !!!!!!!
These guys are absolutely unbelievable... And super nice- just like Rush!!!
Wow!!!! Got to the vocals and couldn't believe my ears!!!! Everything is perfect......
Literally laughed out loud when he started singing - in a good way! I cannot believe how much he sounds like Geddy. This is such a sick cover. Excellent musicianship and a reverence for the original. Just wow
Sweet ❤️
OMG the singer is fantastic. What the...I mean seriously, I thought it's impossible to sing like Geddy especially with his 70's voice, man, you're brilliant.
Thanks Lucas, we appreciate it.
Now you are most precious than ever :)

Wow, that's got to be the most faithful Rush cover I've ever heard! Bravo!

Sound quality is awesome these boys rock good
JUST got pointed to these brilliant imitators and instantly fell in love with their act! And 2:00?! 😲🫠
Wow!! I can’t wait to see you guys at the Newton Theater. I’m stoked!!
Unbelievable!! I’ve been listening to Rush since I discovered them when Roll the 🦴s came out. They have been my favorite band since then as well.

the vocals at 3:10 sound exactly like Geddy, especially the final note, the tone and vibrato is just like Geddy's
My jaw is on the floor. With this power, precision, and mix; what I wonder would it take for this band to cover the entire Hemispheres album? A commission? I’ll pitch in if so. *Seriously.*
Wow, these guys are crushing it!!! Bravo
Wow
I came back for another serving. Great job boys.
Oh my God !!! Outstanding !!
Fantastic
I was jamming along ..these guys are pretty frikn good..then dude started...When our weary world was young....holy crap!..I bout fell out me chair!!...I thought they were just playing the vocals from Hemispheres disc..lol....well done there Lotus Land
Amazing cover! Great job, love the sound of the Rick
And, I thought Rocky Kuner (female) was the only person alive who could sing this properly. I was wrong... Chris, you KILLED this!!!!!!!!!!
Your Moms HAVE to be getting tired of this by now!
No, really, it sounds amazing, and I'm happy hearing one of my most favorite 'older' songs.
Bravo!
I am watching this again, sooo good..
Every soul a battlefield.....
best rush cover band by far ... and i mean by far...
F---ing Amazing!!!!

Absolutely fantastic!
Excellent!
For me, the song and the mixing is fantastic here in this video! I´ve suggested others classics with this structure, such as Subdivisions and among other dozens!
