[kj] Democracy

The idea of Democracy is great. The end result is blurry and burned out.
I feel the same way about Hosannas.
The songs had huge potential.

That album represents one of the few times I've been initially disappointed with a KJ release.  Now I think of it like sub-par pizza.  i.e. It's still pretty good!  I think This Savage Freedom is an amazing track start to finish.  I've also always loved Prozac People.  The spooky sounding verse, the massive "pre chorus" part and I loooooove the chorus.  Youth's bass line and tone is perfect in that chorus. ...even though he gets blamed for ruining the album by the rest of the band haha

Just listened to it, end-to-end, for the first time in probably over a decade.

I've always loved Aeon and the relatively dance-y remix of Democracy (not on the album admittedly).  There were a few other tracks that were ok... but obviously not enough for it to get a regular spin.

So - listening today I was pretty impressed.  For a start, Jaz actually sings.  Secondly, several of the tracks are quite compelling.  Aside from Aeon, I'd say that Medicine Wheel is my current favourite.

What do the rest of you think?  And how long is it since you listened to it?
