A very well crafted album with several standout songs. The themes of the album capture the spirit of the times that in which it was recorded. Overall a shift into a heavier sound that began with the previous recording with a few nods to their progressive rock past. A hidden gem of sorts, very underrated album.

After flirting with alternative rock on Counterparts, Rush returns to classic progressive rock on Test for Echo. Test for Echo is all instrumental gymnastics and convoluted song structures, all of which demonstrate each member's skills. And the key to the album is the individual performances, since each song isn't particularly memorable as a song, only as a way to showcase the solos. With Rush, such a tactic isn't necessarily a bad thing, since they have always been better at playing than writing, and they have rarely played better in the past ten years than they have on Test for Echo.
happy with CD

I bought the CD and other Rush CDs to catch up on all their albums I hadn't kept up through the years. eBay was a great way, at a great price to achieve this!
