[kj] 1000 SUNS and PHANTASMAGORIA

[Alexander Smith]

I'm not contradicting m'self at all.

OTG was shocking in its stylistic about-face. HOSANNAS was just *bad*  
and undercooked and half-assed and poorly executed.

I'd *still* rather listen to OTG than HOSANNAS. For all its myriad  
faults, OTG still features actual songs that have been fully fleshed  
out. And it doesn't sound like it was recorded in someone's  
constipated colon. Unlike HOSANNAS, Killing Joke's worst album ever.

CHOKE ON THAT ONE! HAHA!
