TheAccountant Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 RTB has the wonderful Dreamline & Bravado. Otherr than those 2 fine songs its not that strong of an album. T4E has a bunch of good songs with the strong Resist & Carve Away the Stone. Unfortunately it also has the terrible Virtuality & Dog Years. Counterparts has a bunch of decent songs at the start, gets stronger with Nobodys Hero and then really takes off. Between the Sun & Moon, Alien Shore, Cold Fire, Everyday Glory are all very good. Went with Counterparts over T4E with RTB well back of T4E. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fridge Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Choosing between RTB and Counterparts is like choosing between leprosy and terminal bowel cancer Luckily they raised their game somewhat with T4E, which is half a good album despite some stinkers. T4E it is then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slim Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 T4E is the only one of them that I like. I find RTB vile, and CP dull and plodding. That said, T4E has a couple of stinkers, but there's some very good stuff on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakesideShark Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 (edited) My initial vote was for Counterparts a year ago. I've changed my vote to Test For Echo. I find that Test For Echo is a really amazing album from start to finish. I even love "Dog Years". Counterparts is still very close behind, though, but as of late, I've enjoyed Test For Echo more.

ReRushed Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 All three albums in the poll are great half-albums. Too much filler. Too safe. I abstain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maplelevy Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Pretty much a toss-up for me - enjoy about 3-5 songs per album. But I will cast the first vote for Roll The Bones. Bravado is in my personal Top 10 and Ghost of a Chance, Dreamline, Where's My Thing and, yes, the title track, are push it just ahead of the others for me.

tontonfranck Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Roll the bones was my introduction to Rush and will still have be special to me but Counterparts is my very fav 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue J Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 It's Counterparts, end of story. It definitely has its flaws, but it has the least of the three. Just changed my vote to Roll the Bones. It's still losing pitifully in this poll, though. It's the Gary Johnson of '90s Rush albums. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fordgalaxy Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Counterparts. If Test For Echo only had either Virtuality or Dog Years, I'd have chosen that, but with both of them on one album, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parallax Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 While Dreamline, RTB, GOAC, and TFE are some of my favorite songs by Rush, I enjoy Counterparts more as a whole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
