SUICIDAL TENDENCIES Announce 40th Anniversary Australian Tour
Get ready, Australia, for an electrifying event! The legendary Suicidal Tendencies is bringing their 'Still Cyco Punk After All These Years' tour to our shores, commemorating the 40th Anniversary of their iconic, self-titled debut album from 1983.
Originating from the vibrant streets of Venice, California, Suicidal Tendencies was the brainchild of the unstoppable force, Mike Muir, the younger brother of Jim Muir, the original Z-Boy and founder of Dogtown Skateboards.
Imagine the early '80s, where Muir fused the essence of skateboarding, surfing, and the Dogtown scene with a fresh hardcore style, forever altering the punk and metal landscape. Suicidal Tendencies hit the stage with an unparalleled uniqueness, igniting wild frenzies among their crowds. With flipped up hats, hand-drawn shirts, and bandanas as their signature, they became instantly recognizable and defiant. Their raw energy even led to them being banned from stages in their own hometown, Los Angeles!
But nothing could deter Suicidal Tendencies, and they went on to conquer the world with their unique blend of punk, metal, and hardcore, pioneering a genre they aptly named Skate-Punk-Thrash. They shattered musical boundaries, leaving awe-inspiring chaos in their wake and becoming favorites within the extreme sports community, inspiring skateboarders, surfers, and thrill-seekers alike.
Their journey over the past four decades has been nothing short of remarkable, earning them multiple Gold records, Grammy nominations, and an esteemed spot in the Skateboard Hall of Fame, solidifying their impact on music and culture. The exceptional talent that has graced their ranks, including Robert Trujillo, Thundercat, Josh Freese, and Brooks Wackerman, has further elevated their legacy.
Now, celebrating the 40th anniversary of their debut album, Suicidal Tendencies is returning to Australia with a vengeance! Brace yourself for an unforgettable experience as Mike Muir leads the charge, supported by the powerhouse lineup of Ben Weinman (from the legendary Dillinger Escape Plan), Dean Pleasants, Tye Trujillo (son of the renowned Robert Trujillo), and Greyson Nekrutman.
They are ready to unleash the same explosive energy and unrelenting aggression that made them an unstoppable force back in '83. You won't want to miss this!
