Early last month, I headed to East Nasty’s fooBar to see Chicago’s The Poison Arrows. After listening to their latest release, “Newfound Resolutions,” and some tracks from their previous album, I was intrigued by the band’s opiatic movement with clashing parts that agreeably swim together through elaborate bass lines and punk poetics.

There’s a mood of aggression and struggle in The Poison Arrows’ works that seems rather unfitting after meeting the kind and witty guys (which was a HUGE relief, I might add.) In this interview, we talk about recording practices, favorite new albums, concerts, and…“Marionette Zulu?” I even teach them how to do a proper pinky swear.
Newfound Resolutions Available Now on iTunes
Apparently, these guys get compared to all sorts of bands. In my opinion, if you like The Doors, Jane’s Addiction, Nine Inch Nails, and/or the “Natural Born Killers” Soundtrack, The Poison Arrows might be up your alley.
