Title: Rush bring it home!
Review: In our modern and jaded age, it is refreshing to hear an incredible band such as Rush defy the shallowness of contemporary music and summon up a work as powerful as 'Test for Echo.' The lyrics prove themselves to be as poignant as ever, Lifeson's guitars are unrelenting and melodic, Neil Peart's drumming is...well, come on now, it's Neil Peart...and Geddy Lee's bass playing and vocals are at once synchronized and profound. It is, in short, a more than worthy release from a band that has seen it's fair share of releases. And now, with Rush rejoined and working on new studio material for the first time since this 1996 release, I think it is doubly important for us to hear this great album, and glean from it what we can expect from Rush in the future. Such tracks as 'Test for Echo', 'Driven', 'Totem', and 'Dog Years' remind the listener that this is a band, not only alive and kicking, but never missing a step of the race!
