I'm sorry, but I really cannot agree with this- Geordie's sound on Saturday
night lacked nothing in volume or power, and his tone was far from anemic.
Has anyone else heard the version of Millenium on the Spanish CD? He's lost
the chuggy metal feel of the original, and replaced it with a sharper, more
abrasive (and frankly godlike) guitar sound that owes more to Night Time
than KJ2003 or Hosannas. His tone is much improved over the last time I saw
them (October 2003 in Bristol) and on Saturday's gig the band dripped power
and volume from every pore. Jaz's voice was sometimes lost in the mix and
his fumbled a few lyrics here and there, but not one of them sounded
anything like weak.

 

Jim.

And something I thought I would never imagine uttering, that geordie's sound
is the weakest link in this band currently. Given his tone is so anemic and
the volume & punch of his instrument has been completely emasculated, it is
essential that BPF and youth are back with a rejuvenated jaz.
