Review

Rolling Stone (2/6/03, p.62) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...The reality here is that Reed has once again stretched the boundaries of popular music and, in doing so, has honored Edgar Allan Poe's illustrious legacy, along with his own..."
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..."
