[kj] You guys are kind of bumming me out

[Aja Navat]

I personally like Hosannas more than KJ2003 and was overjoyed when  I heard the album for the first time because I felt that KJ had delivered way more than I had expected. I was even more happy that MY MOM even enjoys the album. My only problem with this album, as well as a few other KJ albums is the length of the songs. They just keep dragging them out and it is just getting annoying. Yet, I still love the new album as well as the other albums that I have issues with because of the length of the songs.
   
  But yes, the departure of Raven has deeply depressed me and made me wonder if it's worth wanting to see KJ play if they come to my town. But that's mainly because when I did see KJ play I was right infront of Raven and he "saved" me from this drunk British guy that kept slamming me into his monitor.

  I don't know, all this bashing of Hosannas- are we
listening to the same album? I am seriously loving
this album and find it is an amazing soundtrack for
physical exertion. It's a great record to move your
old bones to, with those repetitive, crunchy grooves.
I also think there is more of the classic KJ sound on
this than we've heard in ages, especially the dance
grooves in WWG and Lightbringer (which reminds me a
lot of Wardance). Not only that, but I would put
"Judas Goat" up alongside the very best the band has
ever produced. That song is pure magic. Along with the
new Mission of Burma album, I am in post-Punk heaven.

Is everybody down on the band because Raven left? I
like his playing, but I've never thought he's
irreplacable. In fact, most people probably don't even
notice the difference. If he wants to play with
Ministry, more power to him. Give the new guy a
chance. At least he has the look!

As for Jaz and Geordie being a couple of flaky old
nutters- is this something new? I think Jaz is more
lucid than he's been in ages. And don't forget-
they're musicians. Musicians are by nature the most
annoying people on the planet, and the better the
musician, the more annoying they tend to be.
