• Rush makes it into Rock Hall of Fame 
Andrew Barker, Variety Rush  | By far the biggest story of this year's nominations was the selection of Rush, the divisive yet fiercely supported progressive power trio whose continued absence from the Hall had become something of a running controversy. Though eligible for more than a decade, the group was first nominated this year, following years of fan petitions and protests. The highly virtuosic band is best known for its Objectivism-inspired concept album "2112" and continues to record new material, releasing "Clockwork Angels" this past summer.   Published: 2012-12-11
