Review

The Wire (1/03, p.60) - "...His songs, interspersed with dramatic dialogues and poetic recitations over hollowly atmospheric effects, are more a phantasmagorical patchwork of Poe and Reed, an act of violent reanimation....THE RAVEN is a rewarding and self-consciously motley fest..."
Mojo (Publisher) (2/03, p.86) - "...Craftily switching between bare piano, strings and dirty guitars, Reed hauls music and drama together as a reflection from middle age....A formidable and ambitious endeavour achieved with wit and passion..."
