Fourth release by Detroit quartet Suicide Machines, "Steal this Record" is the most diverse album I have ever listened to.

Starting out ominous and dark then quickly contorting to a light, but determined, mix of reggae and ska, then to hard ass-kicking rock, Steal this Record takes you on an emotional and sonic rollercoaster.


Recommended listening from Steal this Record include:

  • "The Air we Breathe"
  • "Bleeding Heart"
  • "Honor Among Thieves"
  • "Steal this Record"
  • "Scars"
  • "It's the End of the World as we Know It" (REM cover)

  • Steal this Record:

    "Neatly polish up a package-Do you think you have it?
    Just a product dressed to impress-Did you press a plastic abscess?
    Is there anything left? -Rhetoric uninspired theft
    It's all burning with nothingness-I'm so sick of your voices.

    (Chorus):Riot-Rebellion for sale.
    Buy it-Devoid of anything real.
    Riot-Rebellion for sale.

    The revolution will be televised-Bought and sold and advertised
    Who's the real charlatan-The pusher man pushin'- Or did the writer lie?
    Your validity nullified- Do you consume the con-Do you sing along?

    (Chorus x2)

    I'm not for sale no-I'm not for sale no-I'm not for sale no-These words aren't for sale no-Everything is for sale-Everything is for sale-Everything is for sale.

    (Chorus)

    I'm not for sale no-I'm not for sale no-I'm not for sale no-These words aren't for sale no

    Everything is for sale-Everything is for sale-Everything is for sale-Everything is for sale-Everything is for sale-Everything is for sale-This I know-Everything is for sale-Everything is for sale-Evrything is for sale-This I know
    But are you buying-Are you selling-That's the question
    Are you buyin'-Are you sellin'-That's the question
    I'm not buyin'-Into and-I'm not buyin'-Into this"
