He was 67. At least he stuck around long enough for Rush finally getting into the HOF.

RIP. Surprised it took 3 days for the news to come out.

 

[Epic Springs]

Big loss to the music world and a legit top 10 all-time drummer. I love Rush and will pour one out for Neil. RIP brother.

 

[Mickey Massuco]

Very surprising because normally when someone of his stature is close to death, you hear about it beforehand.

I was never a big Rush fan but Neil Peart will always be on any GOAT drummer list, RIP

 

[King Kamala]

One of the GOAT. A huge loss to classic rock. Rush managed to do it on their own terms and evolve without compromising their sound for forty years.

RIP

FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUCK. Peart's drumming is legendary and still, in an era of triggered kicks and gravity blasts, stands out for its technicality. The man was a top 5 drummer for me and what helped me get past Geddy Lee's voice, initially, was Peart.

RIP

This suuuuuucks

 

[cobainwasmurdered]

one of the greatest drummers ever. Really awful news.

 

[strummer]

RIP to one of the best ever.

Didn't realize he was that young. He was only in his mid/late 20s at the height of Rush's popularity.

Awful news

The Spirit of Neil Peart

For the first time since the passing of Rush's drum god, Neil Peart, Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson speak about his legacy.
