***Season of Poison*** is the second [studio album](/source/Studio_album) by [American](/source/United_States) [indie rock](/source/Indie_rock) band [Shiny Toy Guns](/source/Shiny_Toy_Guns). It was released on November 4, 2008 through [Universal Motown Records Group](/source/Universal_Motown_Records_Group). It peaked at #47 on the [*Billboard* Hot 100](/source/Billboard_Hot_100) the following week. The album introduced the band's third female vocalist, [Sisely Treasure](/source/Sisely_Treasure),[2] and was the only studio album to feature her. The album featured two singles: "[Ricochet!](/source/Ricochet!)" and "[Ghost Town](/source/Ghost_Town_(Shiny_Toy_Guns_song))".

*Season of Poison* generated far less hype than *[We Are Pilots](/source/We_Are_Pilots)* and failed to sell well, resulting in a low sales count of 60,000 copies. In 2009, [Jeremy Dawson](/source/Jeremy_Dawson) admitted via Shiny Toy Guns' official website that while he believes *Season of Poison* is a great album, it was indeed too different too soon, and promised a return to their electronic roots for the band's third album.
