[kj] Hosannas.....sneak peak ..loose cannon anyone?

[Alexander Smith]

I just started a new job today (MTV News Online....working in the belly 
of the beast, as it were), so I've been kinda busy and in another 
head-space, but I just wanted to quickly weigh in on "Implosion". 
Honestly, I think it's kind've a mess. I love Geordie's parts (as 
usual), but the production is a bit of a muddle (whomever compared it 
with tracks off DEMOCRACY was on the money). There's a disturbing lack 
of definition. And -- sorry -- but Jaz's voice is the weakest link. 
Remember when the man used to sing instead of shout and bellow? Why 
can't we go back to that?

Geordie and Raven (what I can hear of the latter) hand in great work. 
Ben's drumming sounds fine, if -- like everyone else has mentioned -- 
it's a bit repetitive. And no, it doesn't need to be six minutes long.
