Time Signature Su casa es mi casa...

Genre: funk/alternative metal

While not totally up to scratch compared to more thrash-oriented releases like "Join the Army", "How Will I Laugh Tomorrow... When I can't Even Smile Today" and "Lights... Camera... Revolution", this is nonetheless a pretty good album which bears the Cyco trademark of lots of variation, containing funky tracks alongside heavy metal rockers and punked up tunes (and, of course, there are several tracks that blend all of these elements).

The album opens strongly with the uptempo heavy rocker "Self Destruct" and then gets all funky with the slap bass-ladden "Su Casa Es Mi Casa", "No More No Less" and the title track before turning towards punk territory in the anti-pop "Pop Songs" which combines melodycore with hardcore punk, while "Animal" is more punky which also applies to "Start Your Brain". "Public Dissension", "Bullenium", "Children of the Bored", and "Got Mutation" are a heavier funk metal tracks with loads of groove (the former also having some crossover thrashy elements in it, and the latter draws a bit on hardcore), while "Straight from the Heart" is more of a funk rock track. "Charlie Monroe" combines midtempo thrash riffage and funkiness, while "Home" is a heavy and melancholic alt. rocker. There is of course also the infamous "Cyco Speak" which is basically a monologue by Mike Muir himself which is fascinating but can perhaps be disturbing if you can't wat for the next track to start.

Not my favorite Suicidal Tendencies release, this is nonetheless a very good funk metal album with loads of awesome slapping and popping bass and, of course, lots of Cyco attitude.
