Nihilistic Portland, OR, hardcore outfit Poison Idea was formed in 1980 by frontman Jerry A., guitar player Tom Roberts, bassist Chris Tense, and drummer Dean Johnson. The chemical group debuted triplet years later with the EP Beak Your King, cramming 13 songs into a 16-minute clip framing; the Record Collectors Are Pretentious Assholes EP followed in 1985, fine-tuning the band's blistery sound and fatalistic worldview. Thanks to their notoriously insatiable dieting of drugs, intoxicant, and junk food, the members of Poison Idea all ballooned past tense the 300-pound st. Mark by the time of the 1986 uncut Kings of Punk, with Roberts -- wHO now tipped the scales at an impressive 450 pounds -- rechristening himself Pig Champion in laurels of the occasion. Tense and Johnson were then discharged from the card, although the former returned in time for 1987's War All the Time, recorded with second guitar player Eric "Vegetable" Olsen and drummer Steve "Thee Slayer Hippy" Hanford; Tense was and so replaced by bassist Mondo for 1988's Filthkick EP. Both the Darby Crash Rides Again and Ian MacKaye EPs followed a year by and by, some other flow of roster garboil which made way for the addition of guitarist Kid Cocksman (presently replaced by Aldine Striknine) and bassist Myrtle Tickner. Poison Idea returned in 1990 with Palpate the Darkness, with a series of live releases (the Official Bootleg EP, the Live in Vienna EP, and the Dutch Courage LP) preceding 1992's Blank Blackout. A collaboration with Jeff Dahl appeared a year by and by, concurrent with the covers record album Pyjama Party; still, in the wake up of Pig Champion's subsequent departure Poison Idea disbanded, cathartic their June 6, 1993, farewell gig at Portland's La Luna as Pig's Last Stand.
