Free Music Notes for Suck out the Poison

Free Music Review: No two albums are the same...
Hit: 4 Stars

...and if God forbid two are, then that's just boring. There's been a split among fans of He Is Legend upon the release of Suck Out The Poison. I must admit that when it first came out I put it on my list of albums to get, but the cover and the tracks I had heard didn't impress me all that much so it slid down my shopping list. When I finally did buy it a few months after it was released and when it was still fresh I was surprised when I heard friends of mine brutally criticize this cd saying that Croom's voice went downhill and it was too southern sounding. The opening track: Dixie Wolf (The Seduction of...) is pretty heavy and omits no southern scent whatsoever. Beneath the evolution that is today's He Is Legend as we know it is still that same attraction that has captivated our ears. Personally, the album isn't alluring to me as I Am Hollywood or 91025 EP but no two albums are the same. Each band undergoes changes, this could be lineup changes, changes in taste or just wanting to try something new. The backlash from their fanbase is surprising, see for yourself on youtube for their music video for "Attack of The Dungeon Witch." There's been a pattern with these sorts of things: the debut or breakthrough album for any band seems to be their biggest in the underground and when they do something different, for instance, I don't know - evolve, then you better buckle up because fan whiplash is coming. So for willingly not caring what anyone thought and doing what THEY wanted, I applaude He Is Legend. Doing what you want, being creative, growing and doing something differently is what being an artist is all about.
It's the same fans that keep the negative feedback coming. Of course the new album doesn't match up to I Am Hollywood. When I Am Hollywood came out, they were fresh, new and fun. They still are! You can only debut once. Their entrance was so strong with I Am Hollywood and holds a spot in our iPods forever. They've gotten older and still have the sound we all love, it's just more mature and stylized now. They're artists, not businessmen, they don't take orders and insert breakdowns to serve at your fancy. If that's what you like then scurry along to the next shortlived scene and live forever as a musical nomad.
Now more about the album, whereas I Am Hollywood was very fast paced and energetic Suck Out The Poison slows it down a bit and push out a thicker sound and add a lot more atmosphere. The songs have gotten a little darker (China White II) and the guitarwork is different (although still excellent) with a deeper sound instead of high and flowy. This is the detail that makes everyone start throwing around that "Southern" word. Nothing about this album makes me think southern, but that's just me. As far a sophmore releases go, I find this cd brilliant compared to most sophmore efforts I've listened to. But the backlash has put a hurting on He Is Legend and I hope they continue on and release more albums (they have new demos up on their Purevolume.com account). So if you're open minded, adventurous and actually do like He Is Legend (and not some snot-nosed freshman-release following punk) then I guarantee you this album will satisfy.
