Poison

Power to the People

Power is Poison to my people

Review Score:

(4/10)
I have been a Poison fan since I first heard "Talk Dirty To Me" in 1986. I stayed true with Native Tounge, when a lot of fans bailed. I bought the Greatest Hits, craving anything new. I loved Crack a Smile and have listend to it every day since it came out, but Power to the People is a huge let-down. PTTP is a decent track, and I hate every bone... is interesting with CC on lead vocals. But the tracks are poorly produced and the band is too hard. I listen to a lot of harder bands than Poison and love them, but that's not Poison. I'm all about change, but this was not the direction for Poison to take. The live cuts are also overkill. We heard these songs on Swallow This Live, and again on Crack A Smile: Unplugged. It's getting old. I'm still a fan and love the tunes. But unless you are a die-hard fan of the band stick to the Crack A Smile and Flesh and Blood.
