TEST FOR ECHO

This album is a fair Rush album, that is to say that it is better than average. Though it cannot compare to the earlier projects, Test for Echo is still good. The title track, Driven, Totem, and Virtuality are all excellent. The Color of Right and Dog Years aren't too bad either. As a whole, it is not at all bad. Counterparts is generally considered a departure from their normal tunes with it's more alternative/hard rock sound, so this was a good way to get back into the swing of their normal stuff. Though it does lack the customarily lengthy tracks, Test for Echo is definitely worth picking up if you're a Rush fan, but not one to start with.
