Tiles' "Fly Paper", With Guest Alex Lifeson

Tiles' new album Fly Paper is now available. The album includes Alex Lifeson on guitar on the track "Sacred and Mundane", and is produced by longtime Rush producer, Terry Brown. Other guest performers include Alannah Myles, Max Webster's Kim Mitchell, and Hugh Syme, who like previous Tile's releases, also created the album artwork.

"Terry had approached Alex about making a guest appearance – and played him some of our new songs. Alex liked what he heard and said he would have a chance to do 'something' before Rush began rehearsals for their 'Snakes and Arrows' tour. The window of opportunity arrived this past March – and Terry went to Alex’ studio where the two proceeded to work their magic on "Sacred and Mundane." Listening to Alex' parts for the first time was amazing – and the amount of work he put into the song was beyond what we could have hoped for. He came up with a counter-riff that literally 'became' the song; he added acoustic guitars to the refrains; played an acoustic Celtic counter-melody in the bridge; came up with a cool backwards solo in the breakdown section; and added an assortment of guitar textures and effects from start to finish. Terry and Alex spent almost 12-hours recording." - Chris Herin, guitarist, Tiles-music.com
