SUICIDAL TENDENCIES – “WORLD GONE MAD” REVIEW

Suicidal Tendencies's 13th studio album: World Gone Mad now available

This is certainly the comeback year for thrash and it’s emphasized with the launch of World Gone Mad by Suicidal Tendencies. Credited as the innovators of crossover thrash, it’s with open arms that fans should welcome ST in one of the genre’s strongest years.

Returning with vengeance, the band wastes no time in their 56 minute album, starting with the stage-diving opener Clap Like Ozzy. The energy only accelerates with the rebellious, fist raising The New Degeneration and kicks into overdrive with Get Your Fight On! The record keeps its in-your-face intensity with the slow and steady build up in tracks such as Happy Never After and especially Damage Control.

After 9 solid songs of non-stop exhilaration, ST ends the thrash fueled LP with somber ballads to give the listener a chance to catch their breath.

The duel guitar powerhouse of Dean Pleasants and Jeff Pogan ring out some of the most mind-blowing solos I’ve ever heard. The volume and consistency of their guitar playing is beyond words and makes for a killer live performance.

It’s probably notable to mention that Slayer‘s Dave Lombardo is behind the drum kit for both the album and tour, getting some proper exposure on tracks including Living For Life.

Overall, ST is still kicking ass like it’s 1988 and delivering every show like it’s their last while advertising this adrenaline roller coaster!
