ComfortablyNumb
Unquestionable Presence
The Suicide Machines were a punk rock band from Detroit, Michigan that formed in 1991. They experienced several lineup changes over the years, founding members Jason Navarro and Dan Lukacinsky remained regular fixtures. Their musical style initially blended elements of punk rock, ska, and hardcore. Which is popularly known as ska punk or "ska-core."
Despite being signed to a major record label for their first four albums, The Suicide Machines did not experience significant mainstream success, but they did achieve a relatively high level of underground recognition through relentless touring, including multiple performances on the Warped Tour.
My favorite ska/core band. They are IMO about 20 times better then Rancid and Operation Ivy.
They put on amazing live shows as well.
I wish they would get back together.
Check this band out if you like ska, punk, and hardcore punk.
