	Suicide (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Suicide is a 1970s and '80s punk/post punk duo, composed of Alan Vega (vocals) and Martin Rev (synthesizers and drum machines).
		Suicide emerged from the early punk scene in New York City with a reputation for ferocious and controversial live shows that occasionally led to riots and violence.
		Suicide's albums and performances in the late 1970s and early 1980s are regarded as some of the most influential post punk recordings and helped shape the direction of indie rock, industrial music and dance music.

	Suicide - Suicide. Review by Austen Zuege (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		This was Suicide’s first album (as opposed to their second album of the same title), recorded in three hours plus mixing time.
		Suicide clears enough space to remember the forgotten innate beauties relegated to rediscovery among fetid piles of documents, glass, and flesh.
		Suicide seemed to enter a trance state to convey this from their end.

	Suicide: The Second Album - review of Suicide's second album featuring Mr. Ray
		Suicide took elements of artists like Kraftwerk, Can or The Velvet Underground, combined it with the energy of New York Dolls and Ramones and surfaced as one of the most innovative bands of their times.
		Suicide made psychedelic music, but an urban psychedelic; they were not thinking about constellations and far away stars, they did "New York Blues" as Alan Vega said.
		The Second Album by Suicide is as essential as its predecessor if want to get to know one of the most daring acts of modern rock history, or simply if you are open to enjoy a not so usual attitude towards music, NSYNC fans, please stay away.

	TrouserPress.com :: Suicide
		Suicide (1977) is a nearly perfect relic of mid-'70s Manhattan attitudes, a portrait of society grinding down to self-destruction.
		The rich layering of synthesizer effects — at least compared to the brute minimalism of Suicide — is close to the articulate electronic orchestration of the Ric Ocasek-produced Suicide album (also released in 1980).
		Continuing Ric Ocasek's association with Suicide, the tall Car produced Vega's third solo album, which mostly abandons the simplicity of his early work in favor of propulsive keyboard-dominated drone-rock played by Ocasek and a variety of sidemen, including Ministry and the Cars' Greg Hawkes.

		It contained three tracks, one of which was a title track mix by Velvet Acid Christ.

	Live Like a Suicide - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Live Like a Suicide is a live - EP released by the American hard rock band Guns N' Roses in December 1986 on their own label, UZI Suicide.
		In Brazil, there is a version of Live Like a Suicide that features all the G N' R Lies tracks.
		Several sources, most notably Axl Rose himself, (describing the EP as "the most contrived piece of shit ever" in a magazine interview promoting Appetite for Destruction), say that the EP tracks were actually studio recordings, with over-dubbed live audience sound.

		Suicide Commando's version of EBM matches the lyrics and the message perfectly and yet, the simplicity can be viewed as pure, and completely to the point.
		Suicide Commando's "Contamination" was the first straight-ahead electro disc I'd bought in a long while, and I only recently picked up the new one, Construct/Destruct.
		Suicide Commando is Gothic in its true ugly and brutal form, not the wimpy romanticism of the Goth Rockers.

		At long last Suicide's second LP has become available to the general public and it's value to you will depend on what you want out of pop music.
		Suicide's first studio album was the highly acclaimed "First album", a somewhat cold and manic record which fired off a sonic assault of electronic noise and angst-ridden, morbid lyrics.
		While it may be true that Suicide's first album is much more aggressive(and the live disc that comes with it further proves they were more 'violent' during this time period'), it doesn't take merit away from this, Suicide's second effort.

	Suicide: American Supreme (Blast First)
		Legendary New York duo Suicide (Alan Vega and Martin Rev) are set to release a brand new album, their first for 10 years, on Mute's Blast First label on 28th October.
		The album carries the distinctive Suicide sound, but is no retro package and is without doubt one of the finest albums of their long career.
		Legendary, but somewhat forgotten, Suicide were slipping off the rock music map until late 1997 when Blast First invited the band reform to play live in London to coincide with a re-release of first two Suicide albums on the label.

		Their second album, produced by The Cars' Ric Ocasek, was a sleeker, cleaner interpretation of their sound; in some ways as radical as it's predecessor.
		Nevertheless, Suicide fell on hard times and, apart from the occasional gigs and 'comeback' albums, Vega and Rev went on to pursue very different solo careers, which I won't go into here, otherwise this post will go on for hours.
		Last year Suicide released their fifth studio album "American Supreme" on Blast First and, as I can personally attest, were on top form for the accompanying tour.

	Suicide: American Supreme - PopMatters Music Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		American Supreme, Suicide's fifth studio album, is a record of experimentation and renovation to one of the most blindingly revolutionary beacons of '70s punk -- and nothing's been the same since.
		Suicide were the complete antithesis of punk -- replete with a minimalist two members, a lone keyboard, sans drums or guitars -- yet completely vital to its existence and evolution as an innovative, nihilistic art form.
		Suicide now seem like band struggling to find their true sonic spirit, like their indelible identity is lost in a whirlwind of mish-mashed ideas that range from one-dimensional house music to uncomfortable and self-conscious turntable cuts.

	Suicide (First Album) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		This remarkable debut album, released a full seven years after the group had formed, was still way ahead of its time back in 1978.
		Suicide drew on the right protopunk influence (Nuggets-type stuff, Velvets, Stooges) and came out of the same Mercer Arts scene that bred the New York Dolls.
		It is a fabulous, and innovative album, and influenced many subsequent acts in many different genres of music.

	* Dusted Reviews - Suicide *
		American Supreme is their first studio album in a decade and it comes during a year that's seen numerous aging punk outfits return to the studio.
		Like Wire and ShelleyDevoto, Suicide have obviously lent an ear to what's been going on over the past few years and have allowed it to impact their own distinctive sound, rather than settling for simple nostalgia.
		On this album Vega and Rev don't come up with anything as instantly memorable as "Cheree" (their malignant, mutated "Je t'aime") or as disturbing as "Frankie Teardrop" (possibly rock's scariest song) but it's still an accomplished release that attests to their enduringly unique sound and vision.

		CD1 features the full album + extra tracks in the form of the A ("Dream Baby Dream" -- their biggest 'hit') & B ("Radiation") sides of the single of the time.
		The album, then almost complete, was then seriously delayed by 9/11, with Alan Vega living only a couple of blocks from the World Trade Center in the financial district of New York.
		Using only a 1950's rhythm machine and a cheap Farfisa keyboard on their legendary and eponymous self titled debut in1977, Suicide are considered to be one of the pioneers and founders of today's electronica movement and have influenced the likes of Jesus & Mary Chain, Spacemen 3, Stereolab and scores of others.

	Amazon.co.uk: 2nd Album: Music (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Suicide's themes and sound are becoming apparent- a world where Alan Vega croons Sci-Fi inflections like a 21st Century Elvis, while Martin Rev stirs up a minimal maelstrom behind him.
		This is their second album (in terms of both order and greatness), but has an edge that few bands with guitars could create (note to self: there is not one guitar, bass, or 'standard' drum noise on this).
		The thing is split into two Cd's: the first is the album proper, with the second being (probably) the darkest 3/4hour of your life...underproduced and bleak, man. It is a fascinating out-take from the early days, but the real magic lies on the other, friendlier, disc.

	Suicide tribute kills itself; Colloquium {1 offers goth (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Suicide's pivotal opening track, "Ghost Rider," is performed by Bloodstar at almost twice the original speed.
		The chilling second side of Suicide is also stripped of its power, thanks to a lackluster performance of "Frankie Teardrop" by Kirlian Camera/O.E.M. Finally, Psyche's recording of "Che" sounds uncomfortably like a Depeche Mode out-take.
		Other veterans on this album are Yello's Carlos Per—n, who contributes two dark, cinematic tracks--"Soccer In Space" and "Bad Weekend"--and the Severed Heads' Thomas Ellard.

	Punknews.org \| Hot Snakes - Suicide Invoice
		This album is 12 tracks and roughly 33 minutes of boring, repetitive garage sounding post rock with a rock and roll edge.
		I've listened to this album dozens of times, and only two tracks stay in my mind: one, the annoying "LAX" - the music isn't bad at all, but Rick's voice really just ruins it as he yells "LAX, LA, LA" repeatedly in the chorus.
		This is a decent album, but nothing more - I can't really recommend this to anyone, unless you're already a fan or you're a fan of the ex member's bands.

		In 1996, Detroit punk rockers The Suicide Machines came out of nowhere with one of the most brilliant punk albums ever recorded in the history of the genre, Destruction By Definition.
		Perhaps not surprising given the fact that album has almost 20 songs on it and every single one is damn good.
		With most of the 20+ songs clocking in under 2 minutes, it seemed the band was doing it for some sort of hardcore punk image, especially given the development of the songs of their debut.

		I bought this album after seeing Suicide opening for Elvis Costello and the Attractions in Paris a million years ago.
		Suicide had the true punk disdain for all conventions, including those already carved in stone by the punk/new wave nomenklatura.
		Disturbing and refreshing in equal parts, Suicide, Pere Ubu and Devo all brought an inspired, warped intelligence to bear on the new wave.

	Ghost Riders by Suicide CD
		The ROIR label, which specializes in little-known classics (probably because of the label's former policy of releasing material on cassette only), has recently begun to reissue most of its classic treasure trove of recorded material on compact disc.
		From Television, to obscure dub, to this live release by legendary New York avant-noise band Suicide, every release is a must-have.
		This live recording of Suicide (taken from a 1981 tenth anniversary show in Minneapolis) demonstrates what a powerhouse of a band two men, a microphone and one cheesy keyboard could be.

		First out on this ten track album is "Jesus Wept", one of my favourites with its slow-going beat and melancholic approach.
		My second album favourite "Slaves" finally puts an end to this Suicide Commando album in a similar way to the opening track.

		The Suicide Machines-Battle Hymns-1998 Sony-This is another band that I am giving a 2nd (and 3rd) chance to prove themselves.
		The album is good enough to avoid most of the pitfalls that the 90’s ska movement had in it, which caused the movement away from ska by the popular media.
		The Suicide Machines are just as devoted to their music as they were when they first came out.

		Suicide already released one EP some time ago, but I missed that - like you could've guessed after my intro.
		Though they mostly remind me on older bands they don't sound old fashioned at all and it is original enough to keep the listener interested all the time.
		So, after this paranoid title goes a pretty good deathmetal album, and if the band is able to break through their own Turkish border they will gain a little more respect world-wide amongst deathmetal fans.

		Second album Suicide Invoice matches the intensity of their first album while surpassing it in every aspect.
		In my opinion, the album is too short and too restrained for what these guys are capable of doing--Hot Snakes delivers fl themes without the loose ends of the similar Drive Like Jehu, and does it well, but many of those loose ends help to underscore the raw power of these artists.
		As others have pointed out, there's a great interplay of guitars on this album that hold a lot more menace than most records can muster these days, the vocals somehow manage to be one-note yet never repetitive, and the rhythm section is damn tight.

	Suicide - Martin Rev: interview
		Part of the '70s New York scene that spawned bands such as The Ramones and The New York Dolls, Suicide have often been considered "punk", yet they were and remain fundamentally different from their contemporaries.
		One naturally gets ideas in the work they do, so Suicide gives me more ideas, some of which I can express through Suicide, some of which I must express by myself because they might be vocal and lyrical ideas or musical ideas for instrumental songs.
		Of course Suicide has always, in many ways, been a commentary on America and on the direction we felt it was taking, and how we felt living and struggling in it.

		There are good parts on the album but unfortunately, they are spread out, rarely meeting one another during the same song.
		According to something I read about the new Martin Rev (one half of the legendary Suicide) album, probably the press release, the beats on this new album are supposedly ‘sinister’.
		The one for ‘Gutter Rock’ is probably the sort of thing Wesley Willis might have had for 19 songs in a row if he’d signed to a major, a bit ‘grander’ I suppose.

	Moving Hands Music Magazine - Suicide Commando, Axis of evil (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		The new album from Suicide Commando is more of what we already have learned to expect from them, maybe a bit more dance orientated than their earlier work.
		A sample of a guy repeating a line about how many people who die from suicide every year is a bit pointless, especially when we have heard it running for three minutes.
		At the middle of the album, somewhere with "The reformation", "One nation under god (anti US mix)" or was it perhaps "Mordfabrik" I find myself a bit lost.
