Love her new album she is amazing. Ani is funky and fresh and she will always be number one in my book.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN? Another depressed girl with a guitar? Try a self made folk legend with a guitar, set of drums and bass not to mention killer elastic vocal chords. This album is full of wonderful surprises. The lyrics alone are brilliant never mind the beatiful way she combines the music. I think this album is wonderful and if you give it the attention it commands you will find a wealth of insight and surprises which is just what Ani fans were waiting for.
John M. gave it a 9:
Bombarding (occasionally annoying, "Subdivision" being the very low point) political assertments aside, this is Ani at her best. It is almost impossible to categorize this work; it breaks through so many genres. A welcoming and intriguing listen for anyone who can get past the occassional political ranting sure to piss you off a little.
Andrea B. gave it a 9:

The best album of the year, She continues to grow and prove she's America's greatest songwriter.
Eric J. gave it a 10:
This album is GREAT! As a big fan I have heard the different changes in her music. It's almost like Ani has taken her listeners on a musical journey speaking the truth about how things are. Now that she's married her music has a more personal sound to it. Well she's awsome!
Jessica gave it a 7:
It really does grow on you, the lyrics are still beautiful, and although Dilate will always be my favorite cd, Revelling/Reckoning comes in 2nd place. Especially Revelling....it really is fantastic, but what else can you expect from an artist who pours herself into her music so much?!
