If that was written a few yrs ago, it's prophetic.

OOO that is a sticky review.Whoever wrote that sure had balls.

Balls? Yeah, but notice there are never any names attached to the reviews. Anonymous "balls" is more like it.

"So, the new Journey turns out to be a half-step back to the old make that the old Journey-pre Perry Journey when Schon Ruled"

This guy/girl is on a roll like a motherfucker!

Yup.

"The singer doesn't quite have Perry's smooth flowing tenor..." Um yeah.

And it doesn't "quite" snow in hell, either.

Vocals aside, I still think the songwriting on Arrival is stronger as a whole than anything since Escape. (yes, more consistent than Frontiers, which IMO had a few stinkers despite how brilliant it's high points were)
