"Presto" marked the beginning of Rush's return to guitar-driven rock, in keeping with the hair metal (and later, alternative) trend of the time, with producer Rupert Hine. This release has a theme which focuses heavily on magic, and the illusions that society frequently accepts as reality. Standout tracks in this regard include Show Don't Tell and Superconductor, as well as the title track. The Pass deals powerfully with the subject of suicide, while Red Tide deals with environmental concerns (much as "Grace Under Pressure"'s Distant Early Warning did). The magic of Rush is still in full evidence with this release, as it would also be for their next album, "Roll The Bones" (which deals more with the themes of luck and chance). However, all luck eventually changes, and later Rush releases would have a more alternative sound, as well as be affected by personal events in the lives of the band members.
