Hey Andrew,

thanks for the review. OLW and especially this record is and will always be one of my favourites of all time. JonahÂ´s vocals AND the amazing drumming, it canÂ´t any better…I write for a German online fanzine and in almost every interview I try to include a "OLW-question" just to make people aware of how f****ing genius this band has been. When I asked JD from SHIPWRECK A.D. about OLW he said the following: "I think Jonah has one of the greatest voices hardcore has ever been graced with". That pretty much sums it up. I have been listening to "Innocents" yesterday for like the 100000th time or something like that. Songs like "Knew Her Gone" and "Hank Crane" still almost bring me to tears…

By the way. Does anyone have any live recordings? Because I can't seem to find any anywhere. Aside from Deed's Pride on a compilation and the two videos on the 2CD.

To repeat my comment on your previous post, this is one of the best albums I have ever owned. Strangely enough it was also the first CD I ever bought after progressing fromn audio cassettes! :)) Pretty hard to describe how great this album is because I could go on forever!

Would really love to hear the still unreleased tracks liek Liars Den, which is on some live bootleg recording I think. If anyone reading this has those tracks please get in touch!

Jonah's one of the best vocalists out there. Both OLW albums are awesome. I also dig Milligram and Miltown. I wish he'd release that second Miltown CD. I feel bad that I haven't checked out Raw Radar War yet

[...] I hadn't, until Andrew @ Aversionline posted a very personal homage to the Boston-based band's seminal album Innocents, consisting of lots of lines like this: "The album's that fucking incredible. Seriously." [...]

Fuck yeah, good stuff. I remember when you posted about them a few months ago you didn't even mention the band name, and I had to email you to find out. I didn't remember even after that — but hearing this track, the voice is a dead giveaway.

This is really good.

And for the record, I do like his voice a lot! It's unique.

Gonna go order at CMdistro now!
