The worst kept secret in metal this summer is that Suicidal Tendencies has a new album coming out this fall. Dave Lombardo tweeted it and Mike Muir has been telling fans at their shows the new album is coming. Now it’s official, their new album STill Cyco Punk After All These Years drops on September 7th from Suicidal Records. The album is a re-working of an album recorded by ST’s frontman Mike Muir back in 1995. Released then under the name Cyco Miko and titled Lost My Brain (Once Again!), the album featured Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones on seven of the songs. Pre-orders for the new album just went live and to celebrate, you can boogie down with a new ST track right now, ‘F.U.B.A.R.’!
Pre-orders are available on CD/LP (green and limited-edition blue with download card)
Mike Muir commented:
“Although the 13 years I was in Suicidal at the time, I did things I never dreamed I’d have the chance to, or could happen, there were still way too many times that were extremely difficult to handle. Basically, “Love Music, don’t Like the other stuff”. Anyhow, remembering that original love for music made me want to do a Punk STyle record and at the time I didn’t feel it was, could or should be an ST album. “
“I felt it not only could be, but it should be an ST album. Not retro but taking it 25 years forward and make it a modern Cyco Punk record. Extremely dangerous after so many years, but damn, I love these songs and I feel them so much. Perhaps surprisingly more now than when I was 30.
The music hits me hard and the lyrics hit me harder. Life takes you places sometimes you don’t want to be. I know that more than I would like to admit…but it led me here, right now and I’m so proud to be here! And the irony is a “non-Suicidal” album, has just made me more Suicidal than ever.”
Mike explains the concept of ‘F.U.B.A.R.’:
F.U.B.A.R.
Who are you?
I used to know someone that looked like you
F.U.B.A.R.
What’s wrong with you?
You’ve caused so many people to suffer for you!”
We all, unfortunately, know someone like this. Someone that changed for the worse and took a bunch of people down with them in the process. This is a punk rock “release” and “call out”.
