2009 News: Poison Popcorn is now a live 2-piece noise behemoth thanks to the addition of Gwyn Morgan Davies on drums. Several tracks recorded, a few gigs played, more to come, new album in the making, projects aplenty, updates to follow...
There are now 4 tracks uploaded from the recent sessions, "Milk Bath", "Bad Dog", "Orbital Elliptical" and "Trickle". If you've read this far you can probably hear it already.
The epic version of "Trickle" has had a whole load of production thrown at it, and will probably sound louder than the rest thanks to all the studio fuckery.
Speaking of which, should be getting an actual set of monitor speakers soon so mixes should sound a whole lot better in future. Until now everything has been mixed on my Mission hi-fi speakers, and even some on computer desktop speakers so any half-decent mixes owe something to luck.

If you're so inclined you can buy a shiny 16 track CD of Alpha State from 2004 with songs on it and everything...
