Their new CD is really great. I was really surprised but after all the Alarm Clocks did it so why not the Ravens.

I'd take it one step further and say the Ravens blow the faces off those Alarm Clocks, but that's just my humble opinion. PS - There will be NO pre-sale, so make your plans now!!Send me an email if you are planning on booking a flight and want to assure entry. I will make sure that no one from out of town will be turned away! TICKETS AVAILABLE AT DOOR ON THE NIGHT OF THE EVENT.Update with full details to be posted within the next week!

i disagree. both are good but personally i enjoy the new alarm clocks more. they have a bit of an unfair advantage though in a new member on lead guitar.

I'm gonna be in Montreal! ain't never been... real excited to explore a new city! ...but that Ravens show is gonna be packed. I hear Steve B's political cronies are all curious to hear this r&r band that he's been twiddling with these past few years....
ya know, I really do love the new Ravens album! the sequencing is a bit fcc'd (not their fault) but the songs are really strong! ...each distinct and often hooky enough to lull ya back into playing it again. ...and Mike B can still croon a tune . . . shows the ladies just why that man never slept alone if he didn't want to. geeez! so magnetic! can't wait for the show!

no, Brad, it don't...
sound on those truncated Ravens tunes on myspace don't pack the punch like the album. unless you hear the whole thing, hard to really hear the quality of the songwriting.
