Steve Perry left Journey and the band will never be the same, we all understand this.What they created over the past 25 years plus was classic and iconic and permanently etched in the minds of all who cared enough to listen.the year is now 2008 and some incredible musicians have soldiered on to continue to make music for the love of it and for the people who just need to hear Journey.People have been poking fun of Arnel Pineda but watch this guy become one of the most sought after singers in time to come.He does a remarkable job of honoring the sound of "The Journey Voice" and then some.Revelation is some sort of revelation alright.You just have to listen to the new classic tracks such as "Where Did I Lose your Love","What I Needed" & "Never Walk Away" to realize that the legacy will continue and will be well represented.So what if Arnel is from the Phillipines, since when did where some one orignatesfrom have anything to do with their talent?Give the guy a break and give journey a chance.Ithink people just set out to be critical without really embracing the music they way they did when they first heard the band.This album is quite good,Frontiers & Escape it's not but it stands on it's own is by far the best Journey release since Raised On Radio and the best post Perry era vocals to date.Listen without prejudice.

Fantastic Cds! Revelation is the best album done since Steve Perry left. Arnel Pineda blew me away. He has a unique distinct strong voice on his own. Neal, Jon, Deen and Ross are kicking tons of energy.

I love all the new songs! After All These Years gave me the goosebumps. Wildest Dream is definitely the best rocker and perfect for my workout! Top choice for me are Never Walk Away, Where Did I Lose Your Love and Turn Down The World Tonight.

Live Las Vegas DVD is amazingly great! Fantastic sound! It’s worth every penny I paid. With full blast Bose speakers, I feel like I’m in Vegas. The re-records of the Greatest Hits are exceptional! He’s not Steve Perry but I can’t see the difference! I freaked out how Separate Ways ended with high powerful notes. Overall - enjoyable! Arnel surely gained another fan here!

The UK version doesn't get the DVD which seems slightly odd - maybe they know they can get a sell-out tour here without showing us the new version of the band. I've only listened to the new stuff so far and it is unmistakably Journey, Arnel does the songs justice, but as others have said, the production is not as clear as might have been expected. Of course we don't know what they were going for and it's a little unfair to criticise because they don't live up to our expectations. Fairer if we don't think they have lived up to their expectations. I'll be seeing them in Manchester in a few weeks and will be interested to see how it works now compared to how they were with Steve A.

I just cant get into arnel. I get an uncomfortable feeling when I look at the whole situation. Neal has a serious lead singer issue. you all know arnel will be let go at some point for some reason or another. Journey has become a bit of a parody, the only thing they havent done is an american idol style reality show...dont smirk, i wouldn't put it past them. you know neal has considered it. well at least the album was only 12 bucks. my new hope is that Perry is working on new material, even with a limited vocal range, Perry will still dominate. vocal range is one thing, passion and delivery is something else. just listen to the redo of Whos cryin now and then listen to the original.
nuff said.

I use the question mark for the score because I'm still not sure what award this album deserves. Yes it sounds like Journey, yes Arnel is much better than I was expecting but is it worth the 90 plus marks that are being dished out for it ?. A mark as high as that I feel should be reserved for someting like Escape/Frontiers or Raised On Radio, all of which are true classics in my opinion.

It is good but worth 90 plus - who knows .

When Journey carried on without Perry, which is years ago now, Schon or whoever should have changed their name & then all these comparisons would be relatively non-exsistant. But, i suppose then who would care about the music as much if it wasn't stamped with the name Journey to it? Rest assured, not many people. Now then, & rightly so i may add, these comparisons need to be made since that decision by the band was made to carry on with the Journey name. Anyway, this music is indeed good, but great or timeless? Be assured, the airwaves in 20 years will not play any Journey songs without Perry on vox. Heck, they only play those Perry fronted tunes now because they are as memorable as your name is to yourself. Sadly, despite what some may think, nothing these new singers could do nor even the moniker Journey at this point could replace that magic.

I wasn't expecting too much from this album - in fact, I hadn't even planned on buying it until I read the mostly positive reviews already here. However, having now heard it for myself, I can say that I'm very pleasantly surprised with how good of an album it is. There's certainly no shortage of decent material here. I'm also basing this on just the new material, too, because as far as I'm concerned, the re-records and DVD are just icing. (I haven't even checked those out yet). Nope, I'm just judging this on the music prime. Past histories, singers and squabbles don't play into. It only matters that the MUSIC is good, and it is.
Docked points for production that isn't quite as good as it could have been (those Neal Schon guitar parts, in particular, should be much cleaner and louder, especially on "Never Walk Away") - and that comes off as a bit flat in places. Also, for being perhaps too ballad heavy - but other than that, I think it's a pretty solid release.

I was told by many friends of mine that I shouldn't waste my money on this Cd/Dvd. Well, I've listened to the songs and watched the Dvd and I was impressed. So what if the new lead singer sounds like Steve Perry. He did great on the old songs and the new ones too. For the price of this package, I think it's worth investing money in. The Dvd was great and the new material rocked. I'm glad that Journey's back. I hear Steve Perry is working on new material? That should satisfy the fans of his music. Buy the Cd/Dvd. It's worth it.

Never Walk Away is a good song - but nothing new - the songs are a bit boring & nothing stands out - the only other thing I enjoyed after listening to this album 3 times in a row is the fact that in the re-recordings little Arnie works so hard reading the lyric sheet that you pick up some words that you didn't know from the Perry days - Soto was a chance for them to make a real change but instead - little Arnie is hilarious - yes he can sing but copying Perry with english as a second language is just wrong - I understand the real fans giving it the thumbs up - but really saying its 100% & the best ever - in a year from know put on Escape - really loud & you will chringe from shame as you so rightly should.
They are now more then ever a tribute band - Perry should be flatered !!!!!

What else do I have to say ? Just that Journey is reborn. Sounds great to me, since Frontiers. Just sad to see haters here. Since Arnel came from a "cover band", you tend to now term Journey as sounding like a cover band or singing karaoke. Arnel definitely has a wide range of pipes. In some ways he sound like Steve, and in a lot of ways he sounds his own. If you have your own choices of who "should" be the lead singer, sorry to say the rest of the band members have their right to choose who is best suited for the job. Just appreciate the songs, and forget about comparing. A very good album, at a very good price. See ya all on 7/30, Tampa. Peace !

I bought 3 cds when it was released last June 3rd. I loved all the songs in the album. Congratulations to the whole band. Neal you found the right frontman to sing your music. Arnel is the best. All have been said that this is a great album. Kudos to all!!!

I'm one content Journey fan these days. Some of these reviews are highly critical and I know some of you will always reject any Journey music without the “deity” that is Steve Perry.
The past is the past and now in 2008, we get a stellar vocalist-fronting Journey in Arnel Pineda. He certainly doesn’t deserve much of the bile thrown at him that I’ve read and heard. That said no one makes melodic rock music like Journey. They have had there little ups and downs, but nothing they have ever released has been bad and this album certainly doesn’t deserve some of the 0, 50, or 60 scores I’m seeing.
