Rushes is the second album by the Fireman, released in September 1998. The title, when combined with the band name, references a lyric from the McCartney-penned Beatles song "Penny Lane": "And then the fireman rushes in / From the pouring rain / Very strange." Rushes is distinguished by not relying on McCartney's previously released recordings, unlike the band's previous album Strawberries Oceans Ships Forest.
