The Suicide Machines waren eine Skacore-Band aus Detroit (USA). Mit ihrem politisch angehauchten Stilmix aus Hardcore, Punkrock, Reggae und Ska haben sie sich einen Namen gemacht und einige Trends überdauert. Die Musik des Quartetts ist hardcorelastig und unterscheidet sich so von vielen Fun-Punk-Bands. Die Gruppe präsentiert mit ihrer Musik eine Kritik am kapitalistischen System und macht auf Probleme der Welt aufmerksam. Viele ihrer Songs kombinieren eine Reggae-Melodie mit HC-Screams. Ihr erstes Album auf einem Major Label, „Destruction by Definition“, wurde mehr als 200.000-mal verkauft. Es erreichte in den alternative releases-Charts von „Soundscan“ Platz 15 der bestverkauften Alben des Jahres 1997....

Continually refining their sound, the band garnered noteworthy praise for its shows, playing LA...

An obscure nugget that has been thankfully unearthed and given to the funk Masses, The Detroit Sex Machines are the epitome of underground funk. The group's music was rediscovered in a Michigan area vinyl collection (circa 2000). Soon after, members of the band were found and re-release of the material from this late '60s/early '70s band was issued. The DSM song “Rap It Together” wound up on the Ubiquity compilation "Searching for Soul." Since then, hardcore funk fans have been digging deep for more from this Motown group. .
