Didnt really know what to put this under...cause they arnt strictly thrash...or are they? I dont know nor do i care!

however what are your favourite songs and fav albums from ST?

I often have trouble deciding whether i like them, i love the music but im not sure on the vocals on many of the songs, and many of the songs are just plain weird!

Love possessed to skate tho (and the vid rocks) :D

The first four are good, ranges from silly punk to crossover to full on thrash at times, good band, even if they do look like berks.

i dont think there is an ST album i dont like.
the first 3 or 4 definatley stand out above the others though, the self titled, join the army, how will i laugh tomorrow... definatley!!!

suicidal for life which came out during the 90's is also amazingly funky!!

My favourites are the "controlled by hatred/feel like shit...de ja vu" mini album, "Lights, Camera, Revolution" and the "Still Cyco After All These Years" record where they re-recorded their old classics.

I've always been a bit put off by their whole turned up caps fashion gimmick, that seems to be back in fashion again, but maybe I will check them out eventually.

Great band IMO. "How Will I Laugh Tomorrow (When I Can't Even Smile Today)" is a cracking album. The others ain't too bad either. Saw them at Manchester International twice (once with M.O.D. supporting) and then again on the "Thrash Of The Titans" bill at the N.E.C. before I moved to America. Seen them over here probably 5 times. They used to have a lot of trouble getting gigs over here because of their supposed gang connections, and in fact were banned from playing in L.A. for years, although they seem to be past that now. Never seen any gang problems at their gigs thankfully.

Judging a band on their hats, that's a new one to me. Haha. What are your feelings on mariachi bands, based on their headgear?

Wasn't judging them musically, just saying it's not made me feel like checking them out.
