    I'd buy an Poison The Well Documentary in an instant let alone a new album. And if they came to Australia, I'd be seeing them with no hesitation.

    Those first 3 records changed the shape of music. Especially December without that record so many bands we listen to would not even be around today. Truly pioneers of the hardcore scene.

    My first concert was a Thursday concert during their Full Collapse era in 02. Poison The Well was opening for them. I was blown away and became a huge Poison The Well fan after that show.

    even if im like over half a decade late to seeing this, it's interesting and almost refreshing to see he's so open to make a new PTW record, and even says that even if it doesnt go so well it'd be worth it just to see how everyone's evolved. i personally would fucking LOVE that, and if eighteen visions dropped their best works over a decade after they split up i'll bet the whole fuckin farm PTW could as well

  • @dedaelus
    @dedaelus 6 років тому +2

    This is why I love this guy this band and his lyrics. Some of those lyrics esp YCBY and Tropic Rot I don’t think came easy, reaching deep inside, without cliches, putting words on the most vulnerable and raw sensations and coming out with something transcendent. It’s something special to go to the darkest places and emerge with a shining diamond.

  • @FATA-zv4eo

    Dude! So glad I just found this channel. You guys have two of my favorite albums of all time. I still listen to y'all like I'm stuck in time. Opposite of December and Tear from the Red are timeless, t i m e l e s s albums, man. Seriously underrated. Y'all got in my bones deep in 8th grade. I'm 27 now.
    I play eurorack synth and hardly listen to anything with a guitar anymore, period. But you guys are magic. Jeff's voice never fails to give me goosebumps and the way you guys pace the style of your songs is perfection. Like . . you don't chug like metal was going out of style and Jeff is the perfect amount of whiny to showcase that intense loner goth violent skinnykid feel that I still get from listening to your music, even though I'm a buff 27 year old Dad now.
    LOVE YOU GUYS

    I met the band back in 2009 in Jacksonville NC. They were the final band and the band I most wanted to see. I made my way to the front and completely lost my ever-lovin’ mind, singing to every song.
    Afterwards, I hung around and waited for the band to come out to the bar area and no s***, Jeff saw me from across the way and walked directly to me. He had his hand out and told me that he really appreciated me singing every song and for being absolutely bat-s***. He asked me if I wanted to hangout outback to where I absolutely said yes.
    I had been trading up for a deployment the to Afghanistan the following May so that concert was a great send off…even if it was like ten months prior.🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾

    I love the old albums as much as everyone else, but Versions is my most played album of almost any band. Such a unique album that got completely overlooked. A Versions 20 year anniversery set might not make as much money, but damn i would be there right up front.

      Jeff was always a really cool dude. LMFAO He explained the meaning of "Zombies are good for your health" to my ~17-year-old self (28 now)... "When I'm down, watching zombie movies make me feel better" or something like that (paraphrased) --here I assumed it was some metaphor that went over my head haha

    I was lucky to see yall twice. First time was with Deftones and Denali in NOLA in 2003. It was honestly the greatest concert I ever have and ever will see.
    Second time was at a church in Madison, MS around the same time on the Velociraptour (hehe). I know Underoath was the headliner, but I can't remember who else played. It was seriously in some bigass room at the back of the church. Reception room, I guess? It was PACKED and I was standing right in front of POTW's new guitar player, losing my damn mind, sweating my ass off, drunk as shit off orange vodka and PBR.
    Thank you for all the amazing music you've made and hopefully will continue to make.
