The
recording of “Clockwork Angels” began in April 2010. The first
two songs, “Caravan” and “BU2B,” were completed during that
first session at Nashville’s Blackbird studios and performed
nightly during the wildly successful Time Machine Tour, which ran
from June 2010 to June 2011. Work on “Clockwork Angels” resumed
in the fall of 2011 at Revolution Recording in Toronto after the
tour’s finale, with additional strings (arranged by David Campbell)
recorded at Hollywood’s Ocean Way Studios earlier this year.
Lyrically, “Clockwork Angels” chronicles a young man’s quest
across a lavish and colorful world of steampunk and alchemy as he
attempts to follow his dreams. The story features lost cities,
pirates, anarchists, an exotic carnival, and a rigid Watchmaker who
imposes precision on every aspect of daily life. The novelization of
“Clockwork Angels” is being written by science fiction writer
Kevin J. Anderson in collaboration with Rush drummer and lyricist
Neil Peart.
