The Suicide Machines are by far my favorite obscure band of all time and definitely the best of the punk/ska phase I go through all the time.. but they broke up a few days ago
They had released six albums before breaking up.. their best being the first (
Destruction By Definition).. after that album they released a few more that had some good songs sprinkled in, but didn't really work as well as whole albums.. then they came out with
A Match And Some Gasoline which was an obvious move away from the poppier music they made on the last album and finished with a bang with
War Profiteering Is Killing Us All. They were really starting to get better so it sucks they've decided to break up
Some of my favorite SM songs: Hey, Vans Song, Capitalist Suicide, Red Flag, One More Time, 17% 18-25, Bleeding Heart, New Girl, No Face... the list goes on (after all, their "greatest hits album,"
The Least Worst of the Suicide Machines, DID have 30 songs on it, and that's not including material from their last two albums)
For you kiddies that like Green Day I strongly suggest looking into this band.
