About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

From a lyrical perspective, 1991's Roll the Bones is quite possibly Rush's darkest album (most of the songs deal with death in no uncertain terms), but from a musical point of view, the record treads territory (highbrow melodic hard rock) similar to its recent predecessors, with only a few surprises thrown in for good measure. These include an amusing rap section in the middle of the title track, a welcome return to instrumentals with "Where's my Thing?," and one of the band's finest songs of the '90s in the gutsy "Dreamline." "Neurotica" is another highlight which lives up to its title, and though their negative subject matter can feel stifling at times, fine tracks like "Bravado," "The Big Wheel," and "Heresy" feature wonderful melodies and arrangements. Eduardo Rivadavia, All Music Guide

Would Have Been Awesome Without "Jack Relax..."by Anonymous

August 21, 2009: One of Rush's great albums of the 90's .This would be perfect if there was no rap in the title track.What was Rush thinking?In the video for Roll the Bones it has a stupid skeleton rapping.I just don't know what they were going for.But there are bright moments on the album like Dreamline-a rockin' tune,The Big Wheel and Face Up-two other great songs.And Ghost of a Chance-a nice ballad that was thrown in the mix.Overall i'd probably rate this album at 95.5.Look into Rush's music from the 80's.Really good stuff!

I Also Recommend: Moving Pictures, Grace Under Pressure, Power Windows, Hold Your Fire, Presto.

One of thier Best Albumsby Anonymous

May 02, 2008: I have owned Roll the Bones since the 90's when it came out and these songs still sound great. Heresy is awesome, Roll the Bones, Bravado, Dreamline and Face Up are the highlights. If you do not own this cd, you need to add it to your collection. It is truely one of the best albums of any group from the 90's and a continuation of Rush's great sound. Good Job Guys!
