Bush is now rehearsing material for its new album, which the band plans to start recording in a London studio in late July -- most likely with Clive Langer, who co-produced Bush's 1994 debut, "Sixteen Stone."
For its last record, 1996's "Razorblade Suitcase," the British band collaborated with Steve Albini, the veteran producer known for his less-than-acrimonious work with Nirvana and the Pixies.
In preparation for its third album, frontman Gavin Rossdale wrote many of the new songs after tucking himself away in southern Ireland following the completion of a tour last year.
Rossdale, who penned material for Bush's last album exclusively while on the road, this time around composed songs by exchanging tapes of works-in-progress with his bandmates back home in London.
Bush hopes to have its new album out early next year.
