TEST FOR ECHO

Test for Echo is probably the least lucid album on Rush's discography. There is no greater display of virtuosity, and a timid use of synthesizers, which gave each work of the band a unique atmosphere.The rhythmic melodies and bases were privileged, very dynamic and intense with the guitars, but in general without leaving the mold. Due to this, the progressive component has a smaller presence, following the path of the previous works.

It's worth noting the intensity of the initial Test for Echo, the bass and guitar lines on Driven, and the elaborate Resist, the best on the album in my opinion. The rest of the material maintains a discreet level, without going further. Very little for the great musicians who are canadians.

After the Test for Echo, the band took a 6-year break until the next job, Vapor Trails, due to the painful family tragedies of Neil Peart, which even came to question the continuity of the group.
