[kj] America/Hosannas is great

[Neil Perry]

S'funny how it goes... I think Invocation is one of
the greatest KJ songs of all time.  To me it's a
natural progression, a line that goes from Reqiuem and
takes in Madness, Termite Mound, Pandemonium.
Definitely up there in my top ten anyway. And
strangely, the atmosphere around this album when I
listen to it reminds me of the first album. I feel
sorry for anyone not enjoying Hosannas! Sure the sound
could be better blah blah blah, if we're going to get
all Mojo reader about it, but it reminds me of why I
ever liked KJ in the first place. I think it is full
of passion and that ol' KJ voodoo in a way that 2003
wasn't.
