The gods of music, Rush are on studio again. According to a posting on the Rush fan site Power Windows, current rumors suggest that Rush's forthcoming album will be titled either "Snakes and Arrows" or "Snakes and Ladders". This is the 19th studio album for Rush if I am correct.

Rush is nearly finished recording its next studio album, which is expected later this year via Atlantic. The tracks were put to tape at Allaire Studios in upstate New York with co-producer Nick Raskulinecz. "I have never enjoyed the recording process so much, nor been so satisfied with the results," Peart wrote last month on his web site.

Peart previously told Billboard.com some of his lyrics for the new songs were inspired by his motorcycle journeys throughout the United States, chronicled in the recent book "Roadshow: Landscape with Drums".

"Just seeing the power of evangelical Christianity and contrasting that with the power of fundamentalist religion all over the world in its different forms had a big effect on me," he said.
