Couldn't let these pass:

Democracy suffered from bad production - true
Democracy suffered from bad arrangements - false
They are gauging and polling their market and their peers, and not sincerely 
following a muse within - for KJ2003 - true - for Hosannas - false
The new album is a mix of Democracy and KJ2003 - not really
Firedances was reminiscent of Adam and the Ants and Bow Wow Wow- they all 
featured tribal tom patterns - end
BTATS was reminiscent of Depeche Mode - WHAAAAAT ???????!!!! Clearly a case 
of casting pearls before swine!
