Premiere: Poison Suckers - Charmer

Written By Jeff MacCallum

On March 21st, Winnipeg’s Poison Suckers return with their second EP of trashy but catchy, garage-sleaze, rock n roll bangers. It’s their first release since their self-titled debut EP dropped all the way back in 2020. This effort is entitled Charmer and it will arrive in the form of a 7” through the legendary Winnipeg label Transistor 66.

The four tracks on this release are sure to blow minds and speakers when Poison Suckers takes them out on the road this spring. Today we are extremely excited to deliver an exclusive premiere of the entire EP ahead of its March 21st release date. Check it out below, smash that pre-order button and mark these dates on your calendar because you don’t wanna miss them hit the road and come to a town near you!
