WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT!!! October 29, 1999 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
After a gap of 5 years, I had hopes that we would see a fitting followup to their former glory of the "How Will I Laugh Tomorrow....." et al. series, but instead we have a moron-minded outing lacking in either musical or poetic merit. In the five albums of their '88 to '94 period, the band dealt with a lot of real and serious life problems (which more than once have helped me to feel not quite so alone in my own life-struggles), while at the same time tastefully pushing melodramatic angst to the verge of satire and humor.....but this album is lyrically/poetically without any socially-redeeming value OR entertaining qualities. And musically it is little but a barrage of noise (and an insipid one at that), lacking any of the addictive qualities of their earlier work, which seamlessly combined thundering slabs of doom-metal with catchy "pop" elements. The only tract where their former sensibilities seem to be trying to emerge is in the final one ("Heaven"), but even here the listener is in for a letdown, as the song peters out rather than builds to the level of ecstatic, orgasmic agony which was their former trademark. This album may indeed be a return to their "punk" roots of the first two ST albums, but it is a past they would have been better off to have gracefully left behind. I am going to trade in this album at my local music store.
This is different, and I like it. December 13, 1999 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Thing about ST is that almost all their albums are different in style. Fans of their "metal" era of Suicidal ('88-94) probobly won't care for this album. Fans of all of Mike Muir's work in general (ST, Infectious Grooves and Cyco Miko)I think will enjoy this album. It is very original. If you're new to Suicidal, I would reccomend not only this album, but all the others too, their all quite different and original. I didn't hear their debut album until 1986 and I've been a fan of the Suicidal Family ever since.

I have been listening to Suicidal Tendencies since the days when the band had only one album (you know - back before CD). Every album since the first has been unlistenable - until now. This is the first release from ST since the original that I am happy to own. Fans of ST's heavy, crunching metal influenced records, stay away from this one. If you like the punk Suicidal Tendencies, this one if for you.
Rehash from the first 2 albums October 21, 1999 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This cd is rehash from the bands first 2 releases. Nothing really new I suggest Mike Muir should find Robert and Adam and groove again! Buy feel like %$^% Deja Vu first before buying this it's much better metal/thrash.
The best. April 23, 2001 2 out of 5 found this review helpful
Now I've only heard this album and a couple of songs from their other albums but this one seems to be the best one of all. Great songs like Hippie Killer, Cyco Vision [yes, this song is from Tony Hawks Pro Skater), Freedumb, Heaven, We are family (one of my favorites because of it's guitars), and Naked. Now, if you listen this album through, you'll find that all of this CD is FAST rock except for Heaven. Heaven is a good ender because the songs on this CD are really fast and don't sound like depression (Suicidal Tendencies, that would make a hint to depression). But at the end, Heaven comes in nicely and makes a really good ender because it is slow and it sounds like depression. The very first song that got me started on Suicidal Tendencies was Cyco Vision. I first heard it on Tony Hawks Pro Skater (thank you THPS makers) and decided to try one of their albums. So I got a lot of their songs ... and saw that most of them that I got and liked were on Freedumb. So I tried it. To my surprise, this is my new favorite band! Suicidal Tendencies has great drumming! And I mean great! Once you listen to this album and you hear the drumming, you'll realize how incredible it is. It's the fastest, smoothest, and synchronized drumming I've ever heard! Also the guitars in this album are very cool and hard. This is a good CD to party to. Now their best song on this album (in my oponion) is Hippie Killer or We are Family. Cyco Vision ties with these but it isn't long enough and doesn't have much to it. The amazing thing about this CD is that the time of the CD is exactly 40 minutes! Very cool. Anyway, great album with great songs, bass, drumming (oh yeah!), and guitars! Buy it. You'll like it if you're a fan of punk or you've recently heard Suicidal Tendencies.P.S. If you have heard Suicidal Tendencies' eariler stuff, you might want to reconsider because their rock now is a little different than it was. But to me, they will always be good!
