Journey - Revelation ?????

Very, very disappointed with this new Journey CD. It's like the CD was build in hurry with B'sides found somewhere in the cellar, there is nothing to remember on this Revelation CD. The voice of Arnel is fantastic, yes! but i found a lack of emotion in my opinion.
Ballads are not originals and the best title like Never Walk Away is a pale copy of Believe in Me. To end with a forgetable instrumental (The Journey).
When I eject the CD I was questionning myself and don't understand the 97% of melodicrock.com!!
So how much for masterpiece like Raised on Radio, Frontiers or Escape that I found far far better??? No hits for example in this Revelation!!! For me it's a very average Journey album.

But I'm happy to have the live bonus DVD, it's a real pleasure to have 'Mother, Father' with Deen Castronovo's singing.

I've seen the CD in stores. There isn't any way I would ever buy it or listen to it. This band ruined themselves in my eyes. In fact, my behavior is very childish when I see the new CD in stores, I stick it behind other CD's so it's out of sight. Sorry, just makes me angry to see it.

Nice squirrel, Kim

I didn't even listen to them when Steve A was w/ them. The only Journey I ever liked was w/ Steve Perry on vocals. Jeff blew me away when he was w/ them and I started listening to the old stuff more. However, I still can't bring myself to listen to the Perry stuff yet, I love Steve Perry, but, I am still angry. I won't say what I think of Neil Schon

Randy Jackson cracks me up, he's hilarious!

I've actually not heard the new singer and I don't care to. They were on a talk show one day and I walked in the room and I immediately muted the TV.

I hope to one day be able to listen to the Perry Journey again, have always loved his voice. To me, I feel like I'm not being loyal and if I am anything, I am loyal.

The only Journey I can listen to is w/ Jeff on vocals.

I need to get out to the park soon to visit those pesky, elusive critters!

I hadn't heard anything with SA until Journey paired up with Lep for the tour in 2006, so I listened to some YouTube clips at the start of the tour....needless to say I was NOT impressed with SA. When I heard that JSS was filling in, I had never heard of him, so I found clips and when I saw STAND UP, I was like WHOA!!! Seeing him live from the front row at the show I went to left me wanting more, and I was looking forward to hearing some new Journey with Jeff. Frig and Fro took care of that....bastards.

While Arnel is okay....it just won't be Journey to me without either SP or JSS. And I absolutely will NEVER line the pockets of Schon or Cain ever again.

I couldn't have even told you who Journey's singer was, I didn't even know they were still touring, not until they went on tour w/ Def Leppard in 2006. I had talked to a few people that said their current singer, Steve A, sounded like Steve Perry. So, when I went to the concert and Jeff walked out and started singing, I was thinking to myself, he doesn't sound like Steve Perry. Then I realized it wasn't this Steve guy singing. Later, after doing a search on You Tube and watching Steve A, I didn't think he sounded like Steve Perry, not at all.
I couldn't agree more, I've told people that those (insert word of choice here) will never get another dime from me. I really hope Jeff got the portion from what was made from my tickets from both shows.

I wish I could tell them (Journey), all that screaming I did during your set, and I did scream a lot, it was ALL for Jeff. He's the one who impressed me. So there!
They had the opportunity to be big again, Jeff was bringing them back and it absolutely was Jeff that was bringing them back. Talk about a bad career choice on their part.

After seeing Jeff perform w/ them, I was very impressed and as soon as I got home, I started looking up info on him, I wanted to know more about him and his music. I have been hooked since my first time ever hearing him.
