Poison the Well working on new album
Poison The Well is roughly halfway through the writing process for their next album. The band recently demoed seven new songs and is currently working on three more, with plans to ultimately have 10-12 songs on the new album.
Bradley Clifford had the following to say about the new material: "Being a new dude, I was a little nervous about how everything was going to be when it came time to write, wondering what music would come out of us and if we'd all be on the same page. I'm very happy to say it's straight-up fucking awesome. It doesn't sound like any other PTW records, but it sounds like a great next step. I don't know how to describe it... the closest comparison I have is saying it sounds like music made by a vampire crust punk wearing a cutoff jean jacket with spikes and a giant Crass patch on the back, headbanging to darkly romantic 50s music while on his way to the beach for a surf party."
In related news, last week Clifford suffered a broken collarbone in a bike accident and will be in a sling for 4-6 weeks.
