Signals

Signals is RUSH'S 9th studio and continued their use of electronic devices in their music. Things like sequencers, keyboards, synthesizers, and the electric violin. The song length and the lyrical compression were also reduced in this album. It was certified platinum by the R.I.A.A the same year it was released. The period of time known as, "The Synthesizer Period", was very electronic and super progressive. The leading track "Subdivisions", featured Lee's synthesizer's sound as more of a showcase, not an add-on like it used to be in previous albums (excluding 1977's A Farewell to Kings' Xanadu, which featured lots, and lots of keyboard and electronics)
