Suck Out The Poison is He Is Legend's second full-length studio album and was released on October 3, 2006. It got mixed reviews from long-time fans because vocalist Schuylar Croom's voice sounded very different. The FAQ section of their website addresses this:

“

Touring constantly, smoking constantly, and drinking occasionally are all going to have affects [sic] on your voice. What you eat for breakfast will also have an affect [sic] on your voice. Some of the change in Schuylar's voice came from him wanting to do something with more character, and part of it was his natural voice changing.

[edit] Miscellaneous

• "Dixie Wolf (The Seduction Of...)" and "Opening"/"China White II" are sequels to two songs from the bands' first full length studio album I Am Hollywood. In addition to sharing similar words in the title and lyrics, these songs also have musical themes similar to their corresponding songs on I Am Hollywood.
