TEST FOR ECHO

Contains very few memorable or catchy songs. "Half the World" seems to be the most memorable song. It would be a decent song for any other band, but it is not very good by Rush standards. "Driven" has a cool driving riff, but you can't really base a song on it. However, it is a good song live. It is a good showcase of their playing. It just isn't a good showcase of their songwriting. I usually like Rush lyrics, but "Virtuality" has some corny lyrics that just make me cringe. I can't even remember the rest of the songs. That's how much of an impact it made on me.

In my opinion, it is their worst album. A real letdown after "Counterparts".
