'Grace Under Pressure' is Rush's 10th studio album and was released in April 1984. It was recorded at Le Studio, like so many other Rush albums. Originally, Rush had turned to producer Steve Lillywhite to record 'Grace Under Pressure', but he was working on other projects in the meantime. The band produced the album themselves, with assistance from Peter Henderson, who had previously worked with Supertramp, Split Enz, Frank Zappa and King Crimson.
'Grace Under Pressure' is considered one of the band's darkest albums and was influenced by the growing Cold War tensions of the 1980s. The consistent theme of the album is "pressure" and how people act under its influence. Despite the album's somber themes, the band balances influences from many directions, including reggae and a heavier feel of the classic hard rock sound.
