Poison Idea “War All The Time” LP
The next volume in TKO’s Remasters series, a newly sourced version of Portland punk’s second album – originally released on the consistently amazing Alchemy record label back in 1987. Not quite as in-your-face angry as their debut LP Kings Of Punk, but the level of musicianship on this album is Poison Idea at the top of their game. Tight, fast, ferocious and with a metallic whiplash that pissed all over the metal-crossover acts of the day. What a powerhouse. Is this album slightly overlooked? I think it might be. While 1990’s Feel The Darkness is absolutely the Poison Idea magnus opus, go back three years to War All The Time to discover the crucial masterstrokes that lead to the masterpiece.
