ssiscool Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Okay so i've got to admit i never really gave these guys a chance. Even when they were supporting Guns N' Roses.However over the past week or so i've really starting getting into them. I was lent Fever from a mate and i've had it on constantly since. I was just wondering if anyone can give me an idea on where to go next. And if it would be worth seeing them live. They are playing Download in about 6 weeks and i might go and see them.

wasted Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I didn't like Poison as much as Fever. must be awesome live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bards Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I liked their cover of 'No Easy Way Out" from the Rocky 4 soundtrack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are playing Download in about 6 weeks and i might go and see them.Seen them twice and they were alright both times, I guess my view was slightly coloured by the fact that I saw two outstanding bands just after them each time, the first time it was Guns N Roses and the second time round Pendulum, so their performance was slightly weakened by that in my eyes... By all means go and see them though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sandman Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I've got into them a lot more recently - better than I've often given them credit for. Saw them opening for Gn'R and a lot of it was incomprehensible, but they're a good band. Improving constantly, the last two records have really highlighted that.And who doesn't love "Tears Don't Fall"?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Tears don't fall is the one that stands out on Poison the rest were a bit samey.I saw vid of Bittersweet Memories it was like a cheesy type thing but it worked well. It was sort of like a Thunder video.they hooked up with Slipknot producer for Fever so I expect good stuff to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssiscool Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 I see what you mean regarding the album poison. I've got that now and really does seem a bit of the same. So would they be worth going to see at download with a day ticket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I think Scream Aim Fire might be closer to Fever than Poison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tat2d1 Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Get "Scream, Aim, Fire" , it's a good album, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 pretty much Motely Crüe meets Megadeth in a way. Fun though. Fever would have broke big in the 90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAC185 Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Somehow I've had to stand through this band three times in my life.They always seem to appear just before bands I love.The stand-out memory each time is a song I believe had thel lyric 'my tears don't fall they crash around me'. Jesus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
