Synopsis

Album Description
Poison The Well build off of the South Florida sound that hardcore kids have come to embrace over the past few years; they make hardcore all encompassing. Imagine mixing the musical and vocal stylings from Harvest with the pure emotion that is found on a Boy Sets Fire record, and the tight and devastating clean guitar riffing of Meshuggah, and you will only begin to appreciate what Poison The Well is. Fans of all genres of hardcore/metal will adore this new album. Beautifully executed, dynamically crushing, and with a spectacular live show, Miami?s newest rockers are poised to knock your socks off. Emotions and anger induced passion have never sounded this impeccably sweet when transferred to music.

Great stuff

"This is a very good, intense CD from start to finish. There is no time to breathe when this CD is playing, its just pure kick you in the face screams over powerful guitars and drums. As another person said, the screams dont become annoying, it has just the right sound to it with just the right amount of spoken words. If you want one of the best hardcore CDs out there then you must own this. Only complaint is the length of the album, a bit too short, but every minute is worth listening,, so buy it."

"Darkprince, I've heard a lot of people say PTW fall out of sync a lot on this album and to be honest I'm too busy rocking out and enjoying the album to notice so I'm willing to give you all the benefit of the doubt. But to say this album is not emotional is just plain spiteful. You were angry when you wrote your review, as was I, and admittedly that makes for some pretty bad reviews. I have a couple of corrections to your review then I'm going somewhere else with this.



The double bass drum, when used in excess, is annoying and that's why PTW only touched on this lightly. And two the vocals are good/bad depending on who you ask. My acquaintance Nic likes metal, like you. In your defense however you like some underground stuff that I've, admittedly, never heard. I think that gives you some credibility and you've earned SOME of my respect. Anyways Nic doesn't like the vocals cuz he likes some pansyass crap.



Look, I don't care if people like metal, hardcore, grindcore, trance, whatever. But it's when people cross over the fence and give bad reviews is when you, literally, cross the line. I obviously don't have a lot of nice things to say about metal, which is exactly why you're not seeing me go over to a metal CD and giving it one star. That's pointless and it wastes everyone's time. Reviews are about how a band or album stand in its own genre. In this case, hardcore and in this case amazing. Good day."
