micgtr71 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 This is a great album. I don't even mind The Speed of Love. While being the only song worthy of the skip button, it would be one of the best tunes on their previous effort following Bravado and Dreamline.

goose Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 (edited) Except Stick It Out- 1/10 (worst Rush song EVER!) Beavis & Butthead agree with you. Edited January 4, 2015 by goose 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
len(songs) Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 (edited) There's a great EP hiding somewhere in Counterparts... it's a shame that there's such a quantity of filler clogging it up. I've put about half of CP and half of T4E on a CD, and it's much better than any of their post-HYF releases bar VTR...

It has nothing to do with the great epics obviously.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleMoon Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 I think about half of the album is good, then it goes to crap. It is wonderfully produced, however. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital Dad Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Counterparts is a pretty solid album. Speed of Love and Everyday Glory aren't great Rush songs, but they are good songs. Put them on a Goo Goo Dolls album and they are the best songs they ever wrote. Everything else is good to great. Did I really write this? Holy crap now I would put this one near the bottom. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tas7 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Countrparts and T4E are Ying and Yang albums as for two consecutive albums they are so different. Neither album appeals to me and it feels like the band had lost direction at that point, going from Roll the Bones to Counterparts to T4E. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
