Suicidal Tendencies
This record features the aggressive guitar tone and high-energy spirit associated with skate culture. It bridges hardcore speed with the precision required for heavy metal.
Tracks like Possessed to Skate demonstrate the shift toward a muscular, thrash-oriented sound. Recorded in the mid-eighties, the album provides the model for the crossover movement that followed.
