Roll the Bones

Roll the Bones is the fourteenth studio album by Canadian rock band Rush, released in 1991 (see 1991 in music). It explores many viewpoints on life from a metaphor of gambling, with the exception of the tracks "Where's My Thing?", an instrumental, and "Heresy", which deals with the fall of communism in Eastern Europe.

The album won the 1992 Juno for best album cover design.
