Poison The Well - The Tropic Rot

The Tropic Rot

For the past decade, experimental metalcore pioneers Poison The Well have crafted some of the underground's most sonically adventurous albums only to get continually leapfrogged by their opening acts. So it shouldn't surprise anyone that the band's fifth full-length, The Tropic Rot, is another dose of next-level hardcore that sees the band exploring everything from blazing, Dick Dale-inspired anthems ("Cinema") to moody atmospherics ("Antarctica Inside Me") that manage to successfully channel the best aspects of Deftones. However, there is still plenty of aggression on The Tropic Rot, most evident in the metalcore rager "Makeshift Clay You," which serves as a reminder that Poison The Well still have plenty to be angry about.
