On its 1983 self-titled debut, Suicidal Tendencies unleashed an angry, brooding set of hardcore/punk tunes that stood in sharp contrast to the group's sunny Southern California surroundings. Often credited with inventing the skate-punk style, the band lays down hard-charging riffs and rhythms that create the perfect platform for frontman Mike Muir's pointed rants. As any ST fan (or punk fan for that matter) will attest, the album's crowning moment is "Institutionalized," which mixes Muir's witty, disenchanted half-spoken/half-shouted musings with locomotive ferocity, and became an unlikely semi-hit on MTV. Other highlights of the record include the frenetic "Suicide's an Alternative/You'll Be Sorry" and "I Shot the Devil," which sports a blistering guitar solo that hints at the metal influence that would later come to define the band's sound. Although SUICIDAL TENDENCIES isn't as adventurous as the act's later recordings, it effectively establishes its rough-and-tumble aesthetic, and is regarded as a West Coast hardcore classic.

Q (7/01, pp.141,143) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...[Their] first and arguably best album has lost none of its impact. The quartet's sound - a joyously crude amalgamation of hardcore punk, skate culture and vocalist Mike Muir's scattergun, rap-like delivery - has stood the test of time....still a blueprint regularly referred to by many of today's metal acts..."

Suicidal Tendencies album
$9.19 No one could expect 1987's Join the Army, the long-awaited follow-up to Suicidal Tendencies' quintessential self-titled debut, to live up to its predecessor, but few expected it to be this disappointing. Except for a few bright moments such as "Possessed to Skate" and "War Inside My Head," the album is badly written, badly played, and terribly produced. There could have been many reasons for this fiasco, but considering the renewed quality of the following year's How Will I Laugh Tomorrow opus, perhaps the most likely is that Join the Army was a transitional album in the transformation of the band's sound from hardcore punk to thrash metal. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia
The band incorporates a little more metal influences on this one and includes "Possessed to Skate." ~ John Book
Recorded at Record Plant, Hollywood, California, in January, 1987.
Suicidal Tendencies: Mike Muir (vocals); Rocky George (guitar); Louiche Mayorga (bass); R.J. Herrera (drums).

| | Minor Threat Complete Discography CD (1988)
Suicidal Tendencies CD music
$10.65 The Washington, D.C. straightedge hardcore punk scene began with Minor Threat. The band recorded two LPs on its own Dischord label, plus an EP and the miscellaneous singles that are collected on this CD. Many of the early recordings on this collection seethe with teen-age angst and indignation. The songs rage against bullies, religious hypocrisy, and the herd mentality.
Other songs, taken from later in Minor Threat's career, feature tighter and more sophisticated playing. Metallic flourishes tinge the guitar work, vocal harmonies abound, and song dynamics vary more than on the earlier record. On certain songs, Ian MacKaye's lyrics address the complexities of friendship, loyalty, and self-expression. "Look Back and Laugh," "Little Friend," and "It Follows" all incline more toward introspection and ambiguity; conveying loss and sadness in addition to outrage. This second set of songs seems to especially anticipate MacKaye's later work with Fugazi. The album also contains a few playful numbers like the sing-along cover of "Stepping Stone," and "Cashing In," a mocking dig at greedy musicians. Minor Threat believed completely in the power of its music, helping earn a loyal fan following and the respect of numerous other bands who emulated its style and credo.
Recorded at Inner Ear Studios, Arlington, Virginia between April 1981 and December 1983.
Personnel: Ian MacKaye (vocals); Lyle Preslar, Brian Baker (guitar); Jeff Nelson (drums).
Audio Mixers: Skip Groff; Jeff Nelson; Lyle Preslar; Minor Threat.
Recording information: Inner Ear Studios, Arlington, VA (04/1981-12/1983).

| | Slayer Hell Awaits CD (1985)
Suicidal Tendencies music CDs
$13.39 Digitally remastered by Eddy Schreyer (November 1993, Future Disc).
With their second album, co-produced by Metal Blade's headbanging head honcho Brian Slagel, Satanic thrashers Slayer upped the ante from their debut in every way. More graphic album art, breakneck tempos, gruesome lyrics, and proper production gave the band a punchier sound while retaining their native aggression. Whereas their debut sounded like a band flirting with the dark side, HELL AWAITS is where the band begins to sound truly sinister and evil. Dave Lombardo's famous double bass drumming strongly came into play here, further propelling the lightspeed riffing and twisted solos of Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman, who would help propagate a style of carpal tunnel-inducing axework for forthcoming generations of extreme metal bands. To accompany this metal maelstrom, bassist Tom Araya appropriately growled and barked out all manner of dark lyrics, exploring the mind of a serial killer ("Kill Again"), vampires (the slower, moodier "At Dawn They Sleep") and the demented lust of a "Necrophiliac." Wisely, the band knew when to mix up their tempos and keep things from sounding homogenized. HELL AWAITS is definitely one of the '80s high water marks for both black and thrash metal.
Recorded at Track Record, Los Angeles, California and Eldorado, Hollywood, California.
Personnel: Tom Araya (vocals); Jeff Hanneman, Kerry King (guitar); Dave Lombardo (drums).
Audio Remasterer: Eddy Schreyer.

| | Suicidal Tendencies Lights...Camera...Revolution CD (1990)
Suicidal Tendencies songs
$6.25 Arguably Suicidal Tendencies' finest, and certainly most adventurous, album, 1990's LIGHTS CAMERA REVOLUTION features little in the way of the Los Angeles-based band's brash hardcore roots. Instead, it opts for an inventive thrash-metal-influenced sound, as best revealed on the opening mini-epic, "You Can't Bring Me Down," which presents frontman Mike Muir at his furious best, and showcases guitarist Rocky George's fierce lead work. LIGHTS also finds the group moving in a funk-metal direction on the stomping tunes "Lovely" and "Send Me Your Money," tracks that shine the spotlight on bassist Robert Trujillo, who would form the Infectious Grooves side-project with Muir. Skate-punk purists will be further dismayed by the surprisingly melodic "Alone," which finds Muir singing rather than shouting, rounding out a dynamic album that places ST in the eclectic alt-metal category inhabited by acts such as Fishbone--who, incidentally, would welcome George as a member years later.

| | Suicidal Tendencies Controlled By Hatred/Feel Like Shit...Deja Vu CD (1989)
Suicidal Tendencies album
$5.95 Originally released between 1987 and 1989 as two separate vinyl EPs, Suicidal Tendencies' Controlled By Hatred and Feel Like Shit...Déjà-Vu were eventually combined into one convenient, almost full-length compact disc. Besides offering two versions of the title track to the band's outstanding 1988 Epic debut, How Will I Laugh Tomorrow (one is the video edit, the other an emotional acoustic version), previously unreleased tracks like "Waking the Dead," "It's not Easy," and "Controlled By Hatred" showcase Mike Muir's gang of social deviants at their best. ST fanatics will no doubt get a kick out of these rarities, which also provide a nice link between the aforementioned album and 1990's stellar follow-up, Lights...Camera...Revolution!. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia
Suicidal Tendencies: Mike Muir (vocals); Mike Clark, Rocky George (guitar); Stymee (bass); R.J. Herrera (drums).

| | Suicidal Tendencies Suicidal For Life CD (1994)
Suicidal Tendencies CD music
$5.95 After the moderate success of Suicidal Tendencies' 1992 LP, The Art of Rebellion, the Venice-based quartet decided to ditch the ballads and return to their patented rebellious thrash. With Suicidal for Life, their follow-up album, they probably hoped for a return to underground credibility. But this album did little to retrieve credibility, and a lot to lose their growing fanbase. There's no debating, Suicidal for Life, was not well received by their label. Even by Suicidal Tendencies' standards, it's downright profane. Unfortunately, it's also not quite as effective. Unlike their earlier work, this collection exhibits little that could be considered revolutionary. Unless you consider foul-mouthed, posturing funk-thrash subversive. Gone is the social criticism of Lights.Camera.Revolution, only to be replaced by self-absorbed tracks like Don't Give a Fuck and No Fuck'n Problem. This was especially disappointing, because lead vocalist Mike Muir has many times proven himself as one of the most clever lyricists in the heavy metal genre. When separated from the lyrics, though, Suicidal for Life isn't a bad album. The guitar solos are terse and pertinent, and the tempo and energy support the intensity of Muir's vocals. It's an effective delivery, as the group's technical capabilities--which, in general, far exceed most comparable skater-punk bands--are placed on display more than on any other Suicidal Tendencies album. For a release of misdirected anger and pointless frustration, the album works fantastically. Otherwise, look up the band's earlier work. ~ Kieran McCarthy
Suicidal Tendencies' long relationship with Epic Records came to an end with 1994's Suicidal for Life and, as expected, the breakup was not a pretty one. The label's inability to introduce any of the group's groundbreaking albums to a significantly wider audience certainly didn't sit well with ST main man Mike Muir, who decided to run through the motions while being as gratuitously offensive as possible

| | Lydia Illuminate CD (2008)
Suicidal Tendencies music CDs
$10.39 The lush, languid ILLUMINATE washes over the listener like a slow river at night. Likewise, the layers of sound that Lydia drape over their songs glitter like the water's surface on a starry night, and are just as hard to pin down. Heavily echoed guitars bleed together to create an atmospheric bed for the intimate, confessional lyrics, while singer Leighton Antelman's boyish, heartfelt vocals soar over it all. Never quite as mopey and austere as contemporaries like Death Cab for Cutie, this is still ultimately pop music--pop with substance and grandeur.
Lydia: Steven McGraw, Mindy White, Leighton Antelman, Ethan Koozer, Jedidiah Dunning, Craig "Niteman" Taylor.
Additional personnel: Aaron Marsh (vocals, trombone).
| | Angela Toohey No Ordinary Girl CD (2008)
Suicidal Tendencies songs
$25.35 Wow, I can\'t believe it has taken me this long to make a recording of my original music. I have written songs since I was a teenager and always thought I would do something with them. However for a long time I let life happen to me and just went with the flow...and the flow took me to some fabulous destinations, just not ones I had imagined. Only in recent years have I realized you can create your own current to take you to the places you\'ve always dreamed of. So here it is..my cd. The songs on this album were chosen from a long list and are the ones I just couldn\'t leave off. The bulk of the album was recorded \'live\' over a week or so in Brisbane January 2006. I never intended it to be a slick album but rather a record of songs that I have been performing in my lounge room for far too long. I am well aware of how powerful music can be ...why if it weren\'t for Ani defranco, The Indigo Girls, The Dixie Chicks, Joni Mitchell and many others, I might be hiding in a corner somewhere trying to be very small. Instead they inspired me to embrace life and music. My style of music is accoustic guitar driven...it\'s percussive, lyrical and honest. I hope you like it.
