Southern Lord Recordings announced the impending brand new studio LP from long-running, legendary and infamous Portland, Oregon-based American hardcore punk outfit, Poison Idea.
Over recent months, out of the public eye, the current Poison Idea lineup has been intermittently raiding Audiosiege in Portland for clandestine recording and mastering sessions, covertly harnessing their first new album since 2006’s Latest Will And Testament LP. Bearing eleven raging new anthems, the new album has been titled Confuse & Conquer. Recorded by Joel Grind (Toxic Holocaust) and mastered by Brad Boatright (From Ashes Rise), the record booms with thirty-five minutes of fully ignited hardcore punk in the monolithic style the band has provided for three-and-a-half decades now.
Confuse & Conquer is being slated for a Spring 2015 release through Southern Lord Recordings, who, in conjunction with TKO, has been reintroducing deluxe versions of the band’s back-catalog over recent years, including Darby Crash Rides Again, The Fatal Erection Years and Kings Of Punk. In addition to the release of the brand new Confuse & Conquer album in 2015, expanded reissues of War All The Time, Feel The Darkness and more are also in the works for the coming years.
