The good stuff is strong enough that anyone who cares about Lou Reed's body of work, or Edgar Allan Poe's literary legacy, ought to give it a careful listen.
-
The Raven... does fly on the side of the bizarre, but it holds some rich pickings.
-
In the end, what makes this fabulous disaster of an album work is the passion of Reed's performance.

Often falters distressingly.
-
The outcome is alternately brilliant and awful, adventurous and boring, incisive and pretentious, over-wrought and subtle.

BlenderThe format is so rambling and fragmented that is serves neither Poe the storyteller noor Reed the songwriter. [#13, p.97]
-
The Raven is downright awful, perhaps Reeds worst album since Metal Machine Music.
