The Suicide Machines

The Suicide Machines are a ska-punk band from Detroit, Michigan, known for their high-energy music and socially conscious lyrics. Emerging in the early 90s, the band blended punk rock aggression with upbeat ska rhythms, making them a standout in the third-wave ska movement. Their 1996 debut album, Destruction by Definition, became a classic of the genre, featuring tracks like "New Girl" and "Break the Glass."

Throughout their career, The Suicide Machines have navigated shifts in style and lineup changes, yet they’ve remained a consistent force in the punk and ska scenes. Their politically charged lyrics and relentless energy have earned them a dedicated fanbase. After a hiatus, they returned with Revolution Spring (2020), proving they still have plenty to say.
