Revelations Book II

Various Artists

Which?

This is dense, a very ambitious concept album with religious and musical overtones. I won’t divulge the storyline here, since it sounds a lot more cliche on paper than it actually is in execution. Guest turns by Mojo Nixon, Railroad Jerk and Daniel Johnston are high points, though there are also some pretty low points from artists that will remain unmentioned. Overall, this is a pretty decent effort, and while it suffers from an incosistency in quality, it nonetheless proves to be fascinating and multi-dimensional listening material.
