Suicidal Tendencies released one of the most important West Coast punk albums in 1983 with their debut album. They steadily went downhill after that, and in 1993 decided to re-record the entire album in Mike Muir's crappy new voice. At the time I thought this was a big FU to the fans of the original, but it turns out they didn't have rights to re-release the original, so they just re-recorded the whole thing. Kind of like 1990's Night of the Living Dead. Which also pales next to the original.
Listening to it now, it's not as bad as I remember. At least Mike Muir hadn't gotten into funk yet.
