New song

You know at first I didn't like how Poison the Well changed their sound, but if anything it made them more distinct and it's a truly unique style they're rocking. I love it.

still one of my favorite bands. i'm really looking forward to the new full-length.

Great band.

One of the thousands that are both under-rated and under-appreciated.

Regarding the new 7", I feel that the quality of "Shuffle" is below average PW material, but i really like "Bowie". I really hope that they re-recorded Oceanbreast for the third 7". That song is amazing.

They did re-record oceanbreast for the jap version of Versions. I really like Shuffle, but the sound quality is horrible... I think I have a bad rip, and just need to fork out 99 cents for the iTunes version. Bowie is good. Considering these are leftovers of Versions, I don't mind if they're slightly forgettable. Still good shit.

Yeah, but I only buy records; vinyl. I bought the 12" of Versions and on the back, it says that the bonus track is Oceanbreast, but when you play the record it's "Wreck itself taking you with me". So I hope it'll be on the last 7".

Anyone here think that PTW could do a very good Helmet cover?

I need to check out that song and I like the cd cover minus the font. I think they could have picked a better font

Starz · Jun 09, 2009, 10:01 AM

Sounds a lot more like You Come Before You which is a GOOD thing.

skinnypuppy · Jun 09, 2009, 05:38 PM

SUCH A GOOD SONG

defskull · Jun 09, 2009, 09:04 PM

Wow, his voice sounds pretty heavy on this song. At first it sounded like a 'Versions' b-side, but it soon became it's own and got better. Yet another cd I'm looking forward to.

Can't wait!!!

DAMNNNNNN! The Tropic Rot is soooooooooo gooooood! Downloaded it tonight and been listening to it for about 6 hours straight. Def. different than anything they have EVER done. Some of the vocals are really, really catchy. Strangely enough some of the instrumentation reminds me of Neurosis which is weird in itself. Ill be buying this for sure.
