Recently I am thinking about PoisonBlack, specifically. The only song of theirs that I actually like is Rush. I haven’t listened to all of them, because I simply did not have the patience to do that!
Man, Love Infernal …Mercury Falling…what’s up with that CRAP? My feeling is that they are trying to resemble HIM. Now, I know HIM is a big hit and everything, but most of HIM’s songs sound all the same. A PoisonBlack sounding like HIM, but not being HIM just does not make any freaking sense!
The saddest part of the story is that I actually LOVE Sentenced.
The Sentenced vocal, Ville Laihiala, is now the vocal of PoisonBlack. Unfortunately, Sentenced dissolved in 2006, after Miika Tenkula’s death. Miika Tenkula was writing most of the Sentenced songs – and boy, they were SUPER!
Now, if I am to go to a concert, hoping to listen to …at least _something_ that sounds like Sentenced, I have nowhere to go. I wish PoisonBlack were more like Sentenced, but only Rush sounds good, as far as I can tell so far. If only Miika were still alive! He would continue to write cool songs, and boring PoisonBlack band will have never been invented.
For those who like to listen to Sentenced, take a look at the following live concert, from my YouTube Playlist: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOetxT3nMnU&feature=mh_lolz&list=PL24B495A465BFABF1
