 Назвать "Суицидалов" панком или даже хардкором язык не поворачивается. И несмотря на все очевидные металлические (более того – трэшевые) элементы, это всё ещё не трэш. Но это должно было быть простой констатацией факта, а не упрёком. Ибо в чём можно упрекнуть одну из самых прикольных кроссоверских банд вообще? Альбом, допустим, детский, грязный, мальца неуклюжий. Но классический и принёсший банде вокруг психанутого Майка Муира известность в Штатах. Ибо публика была в то время довольно обширна: юные скейтеры по всей Калифорнии только и ждали, чтобы кто-то снял диким кроссовером боль с их никем не понимаемых душ. И вот: за начальным Black Sabbath-овским риффом следует просто выплеск юношеского энтузиазма в форме хардкорового примитивизма и трэшевого рубилова. Можно, конечно, поставить толстый минус за мутный звук записи, но он, тем не менее, способен показать, что за инструментами больше не юные панки-латиносы, а люди, у которых руки растут из правильного места. "Суицидалам" действительно удаётся, впрочем, как и всегда, шпагат между злобным металлическим чёсом и откровенно примитивным раздолбайством.
Особенного внимания заслуживают такие вещи, как тру-металлическая «The Prisoner», скоростная и злая «I Feel Your Pain», не менее скоростная, но прикольная «Human Guinea Pig», открывающая альбом «Suicidal Maniac». Начиная с «Possessed to Skate» идёт уже больше хардкор. Забавно, но тускловато по сравнению с первой половиной альбома.
Т.к. "Суицидалы" всегда, так или иначе, оставались себе верными, то «Join the Army» можно действительно рассматривать если не как приглашение присоединиться к армии фэнов, то как приглашение к знакомству с этой крутой бандой. Минус, повторюсь, в мутноватом звучании. |

He feels no pain, he has no mercy or no fears
He gives the message and your mind is filled with blue
And now the maniac lives inside of you
[CHORUS]
He's back. The suicidal maniac.
Each day he grows more and more
He's bigger now than ever before
His thoughts he'll compromise on never
He can't be stopped. He'll live forever
Blast away through the mind
A power of another kind
A presence that is growing out of sound
And now it's come, the time the maniac I'll meet
He takes my hand and now I bow down to his feet
His love for me is like a father to a son
And now the maniac and I are one
I bow to his might
Too powerful to fight
It's my destiny
Now the maniac lives inside of me
He's back
An army at his command
A strength that you can't comprehend
A force unknown can now be told
The power of the world he holds
A feeling you can't kill
It's the power. It's the will
Controls your thoughts but you can't see
Just when you thought it safe he suddenly appears
He feels no pain, he has no mercry or no fears
He gives the message and your mind is filled with blue
And now the maniac's a part of you
And the time has come. The maniac you'll meet
He takes your hand and now you bow down to his feet
His love for you is like a father to a son
And now the maniac and you are one
[CHORUS]
2. Join The Army
[Louiche/Mike Muir]
I got a story to tell, now listen up real well
Pay attention this way to what I got to say
Took it to the street, rap to the people we meet
Now we're rocking out hard to the Suicidal beat
Tried to deny our right, so we're putting up a fight
Just doing our thang, they tried to call it a gang
Saw the way we look, that's all that it took
That's all she wrote, they had their scapegoat
Dressed down, homeboyz, minority-join the Army
We're the few, we're the proud, we like to jam it loud
The music we play won't have it any other way
We're armed to the bone with our music and our tone
Recruiting on the street fwith the sound of our beat
Growing larger every day and every time we play
Don't need no college plan, we're just a hard-rocking band
We like our music to please but we ain't gonna appease
No pressure's too much to make us change our touch
Hardcore, metal, the new wave
We're not a gang-join the Army
Don't be no fool, don't let your prejudice rule
Don't judge y your fear, judge us by your ear
Can't believe every word of every story that you've heard
Just play the song, I know you'll start to rock along
Well I don't care 'bout the clothes you wear
It's the size of your heart, not the length of your hair
Don't make no difference to me, the color that you be
Black, white or brown, it's all the same to me
Well if you still don't believe you best get up and leave
Do what you must do, but this ain't the place for you
You got no right but if you start a fight
We'll be rockin' your head but with our fists instead
I'll fight it with the band, right down till the end
Ask anyone I've met, this ain't no idle threat
Don't flap no fit and it won't come to this
Bust as for me, I'm down with the Army
New YHork, London, Venice
Why join a gang?
Join the Army
Suicidal rock-join the Army
Suicidal rock-join the Army
Suicidal rock-join the Army
Suicidal rock-join the Army
Suicidal rock-I want you to join the Army-S.T.
3. You Got, I Want
[Suicidal Tendencies]
You got, I want
You got, I want
You got, I want
You got, I want
I can't tell you why you're crying
I can only tell you to wipe your tears away
You see something that's inside me
I think I'll save it for a rainy day
I don't need no constitution
To tell me what is wrong and right for me
C'mon take it little honey
I want to tell you baby what you see
[CHORUS]
You're gonna take al lthat I'm giving, yea
What's the matter can't you see
You know I'm taking, you're not giving
Oh baby, baby, please please please please
I'm not sure what I told you
I'm only sure that it wasn't true
You said I told you that I love you
Well there's a thousand others just like you
You said I used to be romantic
Well now I don't need to be anymore
You want to talk about commitment
I think I want to show you the door
[CHORUS]
You got, I want
You got, I want
You got, I want
You got, I want
Love me, hold me tonight
I can't tell you why you're crying
I can only tell you to wipe your tears away
You see something that is inside me
I think I'll save it for a rainy day
I don't need no constitution
To tell me what is wrong and right for me
C'mon take it little honey
I want to tell you baby what you see
You got, I want, I want now
4. A Little Each Day
[Mike Muir]
Took a walk down under the street
Never thought that I'd see the day I would meet
Came and whispered in my ear
But I tried to pretend that I didn't hear
Turned my head and walked away
And I tried to forget what they had to say
Put on a smile and I tried to hide
But I couldn't keep myself from crying inside
[CHORUS]
Oh, I...So I turned my head and I walked away
Oh, I...And I tried to forget what he had to say
Oh, I...And I chalked it up as another day
Oh, I say...I died a little today
Took a journey through my brain
And they saw the scars and they felt my pain
Saw the things I didn't want to find
Knew the dreams I had over a bottle of wine
Thought if I lied I was going to win
But they said the battle wouldn't even begin
Thought about the lies that I said to myself
But I knew it's too late to find the help
[CHORUS]
I die a little each day
5. The Prisoner
[Louiche/Mike Muir]
You're the prisoner locked in your cell
You're living in your personal hell
Invisible bars block your view
They don't exist except for you
Free, why can't you see how easily
You could break those bars right down
New freedom found, travel around
And find out exactly why
Give it a try, living the lie
And try to solve the final clue
See if it's true, found out just who
The real enemy is you
Don't be afraid
Don't be deceived
A new world for you
Can be conceived
Don't tell me 'bout how the world isn't fair
How you'll live your life how you choose
I don't want to hear another excuse
How it ain't your fault when you lose
And you're the prisoner
Your mind's diseased, my mind is cured
I was the prisoner but never again
My worst enemy is now my friend
Brainwashed, you'll probably believe
I gave it up for a new reprieve
Free, why can't you see how easily
You could break those bars right down
New freedom found, travel around
And find out exactly why
Give it a try, living the lie
And try to solve the final clue
See if it's true, found out just who
The real enemy is you
You say you're political
I say, "Screw that, you're just a fool."
6. War Inside My Head
[Louiche/Mike Muir]
War inside my head
War inside my head
War inside my head
War inside my head
War inside my head ain't a pretty sight
But I don't want no sympathy
It's happened a thousand times before
It's just a harsh reality
[CHORUS]
War inside my head-can you sense it
War inside my head-can you see it
War inside my head-can you feel it
War inside my head
Can you hear the-pain
Can you see the-pain
Can you sense the-pain
Can you feel the-pain
Can you help the-pain
Can you fix the-pain
Can you hear the war inside my head
The only thing real is the way I feel
And that's the pain that's deep inside
The battle from within is gonna begin
And there ain't nowhere to hide
[CHORUS]
War inside my head every night and day
I never get no piece of mind
It ought to be a sin, I just can't win
And pure hell is all I find
7. I Feel Your Pain And I Survive
[Rocky George/Mike Muir]
Survive
You can not stand a single word I say
But you manage to hear every word anyway
Your eyes they always seem to be fixed on me
But not for love but for money
[CHORUS]
You say nothing yet I still hear
I am the thing that you most fear
I cause the pain deep in your heart
O, how I love to tear your world apart
Well I feel your pain and I survive
And I survive
I see your anger, I can hardly wait
How it feels so good to cause you such hate
Tried to ignore me. Thought I'd go away
But I'm back for good. I'm here to stay
[CHORUS]
You thought that you could get the best of me
To put me down, it seemed, so easily
I take such pride in the work I do
You hoped I'd fail but I'm not like you
[CHORUS]
I feel your pain so I survive
8. Possessed To Skate
[Louiche/Mike Muir]
Let's skate!
Seemed like such an innocent toy
He was the All-American boy
Got a skate at eight years old
Now the story can be told
Beware he's possessed to skate!
Skating takes him up in height
He's a pilot on a modern flight
See him flying through the air
If he don't land then he don't care
[CHORUS]
Cause he rips-he rips
When he skates-he skates
Cause he never hesitates
He's the wizard on the wheels
Like a modern gladiator ain't got no fears
So skate
He shoots the pool like a launching pad
If it ain't insane then you can't get rad
Skating is all that's on his mind
He's skating radical all the time
[CHORUS]
Beware he's possessed to skate!
Looks like a magic carpet ride
Six foot airiels inverts backside
Optical illusion it must be
He redefines insanity
[CHORUS]
Doesn't understand why you'd wanna walk
Ain't got time to sit and talk
Used to be just like you and me
Now he's an outcast of society
Beware he's possessed to skate!
And the skating's getting radical
9. No Name, No Words
[Louiche/Mike Muir]
I close my eyes, yet I still see
I can not hide from what's inside of me
I hear my thoughts, but they're not clear
And now I tremble with fear
[CHORUS]
No one can tell me what's sane
You see the tears I cry
But you can't feel my pain
No title can classify me
I'm a person with feelings
A number I refuse to be
Don't try to live my life
You cannot talk for me
Now I'm on the brink, brink of insanity
Sometimes I stare into space
I try to think about another place
Where happiness I'll see
I'll find a place for me and find some sanity
Sometimes I look at you
And I wonder what will I do
Will my mind stay intact
How will I react, will I do any harm to you
Open my eyes, but I can't see
Maybe the hatred has blinded me
There's not a sound, yet I still hear
Now the pain is so clear
[CHORUS]
Sometimes I stop to think
Or maybe my thinking just stops
Doesn't matter anyway
No one hears what I say, I'm on the brink of insanity
Well I know him but not his name
In everyone, yet not the same
Play with the cards i'm dealt, worse I never felt
I'm playing a sick man's game
10. Cyco
Cyco cyco cyco cyco
Cyco cyco cyco cyco
Born cyco it's the way I was meant to be
Live cyco it's the only life for me
Burning burning burning burning
Burning burning burning burning
Burning up can't you see
But it's the only life for me
I'm burning up, the fire blazes inside
Out of control, so now you better hide
Run around the corner
But the corner never ends
You scream out, beg, shout
But the nightmare never ends
You turn around but you just see
What you saw before
Spin around, fall down
Now you see no more
Raging raging raging raging
Raging raging raging raging
Raging mad that may be
But it's the only life for me
I'm raging mad and soon you will know
I'm burning up from my head to toe
Cyco cyco cyco cyco
Cyco cyco cyco cyco
It's the only life I know
I was born to cyco
I'm cyco and my mind it starts to bend
Out of control, it seems to be the trend
Born to be cyco
11. Two Wrongs Don't Make A Right (But They Make Me Feel A Whole Lot Better)
[Rocky George/Mike Muir]
Welcome to the year of the cyco
It's been a long, long wait
Welcome to a modern blitzkrieg
With peace, I can't relate
Welcome to death now you'll love it
Once in a lifetime treat
Say goodbye to peace and order
You and my terror will meet
My best friend is misery
My girlfriend is insanity
My father is revenge
My love for you I must confess
With my knife you passed the test
I'll love you till the end
Evacuation of my mind
In my body no heart you'll find
Where there's death I lurk
Empty stare incoherent
Screams of pain, love to hear it
Take pride in my work
They say two wrongs don't make a right
Well maybe that is true
But I can't describe the feeling I get
When I take revenge on you
Forgiveness is the key to destruction
But you can't open my door
Repentance, you're indecision
I hesitate no more
Tradition is the root of all evil
So now I water the tree
Salvation, an all-time sentence
So now I walk away free
Two wrongs don't make a right
But they make me feel a whole lot better
12. Looking In Your Eyes
[Louiche/Mike Muir]
I see destruction as it rages through your veins
I see depression as it fills your heart with pain
I see the cure you found, your artificial peace
I see your body rot, your solution now has it's feast
And now I look, I look in your eyes
Looking in your eyes
Looking in your eyes
Looking in your eyes
Looking in your eyes
What I see in your eyes
I can see, they tell no lies
Looking in your eyes
I see salvation oh so close, but yet so far
I see the gilmmering of the holy star
I see your future, it's a nightmare and I lie
But you refused my help, now I have no more strength to try
Now I see, I see the lies
Looking in your eyes
In your eyes I see the lies
What I see in your eyes
I can see, you tell no lies
Looking in your eyes
Looking through my eyes
Well I would die for you
I've died enough now I'm through
But one day you will see
What won't but what should B-T-F. Please stay.
