Since their formation in 1980 Portland punk rock icons Poison Idea were a musical force of nature with a tempestuous history filled with many ups and downs but ultimately doing what they loved and not caring what anyone else thought. The band released some of the best punk/hardcore releases in history from their debut 7″ Pick Your King through 1990s seminal Feel The Darkness to their last album Confuse & Conquer in 2015 and Poison Idea literally didn’t give a fuck about anything apart from releasing the best music they could, which they always succeeded in. The band sadly split up at the start of this year but frontman Jerry A is not done yet. We caught up with him to hear all about the band and why they split, their history and legacy, drugs, his hometown of Portland, punk rock, his plans for the future and more. Poison Idea are dead but long live Jerry A and we can’t wait to see what he has planned for the future.

Since the demise of Poison Idea, are you doing anything musically at the moment or have you got any plans to do anything musical in the future? Not anything that I can jump on stage and start blasting.

Following on from last year's resurrection of 'Darby Crash Rides Again' and 'The Fatal Erection Years', Southern Lord present to you POISON IDEA's 1986 album 'Kings Of Punk'! The Portland hardcore berzerkers rip through 11 freshly remastered studio tracks, as well as three live sets spread over two CDs, brought kicking, screaming and thrashing back to life by Jack Control (WORLD BURNS TO DEATH).

The other guys almost acted like it was really important to get back on a stage as quick as possible to somehow keep the power going or some bullshit? When it comes, it’ll come. I’ve been working on lots of different things and was doing that even before Poison Idea stopped. I’ll give it a year maybe and then have the urge to stand in front of people and let them judge me for this art that I’m creating. I have a better time sitting in my basement, playing to my dogs, that’s probably where that music belongs anyway. With Poison Ideas brilliant last album Confuse & Conquer, did you want want to go out on a high with the band with that record?

That kinda goes along with what I said about getting our act together and not ripping people off and trying to do a good job. I was happy with that record.

It shows what you can do when you actually give two shits. When did you realise it was time for the band to end? When I realized I wasn’t getting 1/10th of what I was putting into it, back as a return. And I’m not talking monetary. Joseph Delaney Torrent Ebook Fr more.

Spiritually, mentally, loyally, and physically. When most of the shows consist of apologizing to the soundmen for people acting like children, promoters for rockstar attitudes, demanding people to stop whatever they’re doing and run out to get water. Complaining about travel, accommodations, food, and then how much money they’re getting? It wasn’t fucking worth it. To teach a whole batch of other people that same fifty songs all over again?

I think in order to have a band run properly every single part has to work together. Given how nihilistic and fast living the band were, were you surprised how long you lasted?

I didn’t want to go to prison or rot slowly, so I just stopped. What were your drinks and drugs of choice in Poison Idea? The stronger the better. When you got Poison Idea back together after splitting in the 1990s, what was it that prompted you to get back together then? We got back together to support our drug habits and after awhile I decided that was cheating people and called a band meeting and said we have to get our shit together and sober up and start making music.

Playing good shows, and recording good records. Is that definitely it for the band or would you consider getting back together at all, even for a one off show? No one can predict the future but for today, right now, tomorrow. Juvenile 400 Degreez Torrent Download.
