Mean What You Say has been generating a buzz among the media outlets this week as it releases. The album and band are featured in outlets such as Alternative Press, Seattle Weekly, Audiopinions and more. Check out what the media are saying about Mean What You Say:

"From the circle-pit-inciting, double-timed 'Prudence' to the creepy electric tinges that pepper the title track, Sent By Ravens are able to showcase some originality in a genre that generally lacks any true innovation."
- Alternative Press

"Sent By Ravens whip up the perfect post-hardcore recipe using energy and hope"
- Seattle Weekly Blog

"Mean What You Say is a fabulous foray in the rock circle, as it does improve upon the precedent set by Our Graceful Words, heavy hitting from start to finish."
- JesusFreakHideout

"Sent by Ravens sophomore LP Mean What You Say is implicitly potent."
- cmaddict.com

"Front to back, it is a triumph in production quality, unforgettable songwriting, and uncanny passion. It is dark and disquieting, yet uplifting. It is contemporary without being derivative."
- Migrate Music News

"Sent By Ravens truly mean what they say and will surely appeal to any listener who is looking for authenticity while listening to music."
- Emurg.com

"The stylistic choices made throughout the album quickly skyrockets the album into a solid release by themselves. Incorporate the sharp and talented musicianship of the band and you have a release that is worth its price tag."
- Audiopinions.net

About Sent By Ravens and Mean What You Say: With their sophomore effort Mean What You Say, Sent By Ravens have taken their driving modern rock sound and rounded it out, expanded its diversity while staying true to a base of powerful vocals and soaring guitar tones. The new album was produced in Nashville with Rob Hawkins (Fireflight, Disciple) and mixed by Ainslie Grosser, is a polished collection of songs that contain moments that are sometimes delicate and sometimes raw.

If you know nothing about Sent By Ravens, you must know their story is one of aligning stars, divine appointments, and most of all, diversity. On little more than a prayer, Riner moved his life hundreds of miles from Georgia to tiny Hartsville, South Carolina to connect with guitarist Andy O'Neal and explore their mutual rick n' roll fantasies. Then, after combing the earth via online sources such as Youtube, three band mates followed their lead--each relocating to the same town (two of which moved all the way from Maui, Hawaii) with nothing but their faith and their talents to guide them. The result was extraordinary, as the clash of different backgrounds produced a tangible individuality. Sent By Ravens is: Zach Riner: Vocals, Andy O'neal: Guitar, JJ Leonard: Guitar, Jon Arena: Bass and Dane Andersen: Drums.
