[kj] [kHz] (no subject) Hypothetical question

[Leigh Newton]

Alex is right. It is, by far, their worst. OTG is terrible but at least it's got 
songs. Hosannas is a bunch of half-hearted jams cobbled together. Terrible 
production, no quality control whatsoever. Unlistenable murk. In many ways, I 
draw comparisons between it and St. Anger by Metallica. What a terrible note for 
Raven to go out on.

"the last one to feature the great Raven"

Yeah, not that you can really hear his contributions to the proceedings, given 
the crap production.

Honestly, it's the worst album they ever birthed. You don't have to agree with 
me. It's just my opinion. I just happen to be right, that's all. :)
