The Suicide Machines are an American punk rock band formed in March 1991 in Detroit, Michigan. Known for their energetic blend of punk rock, ska, and hardcore, the band was originally composed of Jason Navarro (vocals), Dan Lukacinsky (guitar/vocals), Jason Brake (bass), and Stefan Rairigh (drums). Their earliest works were characterized by their intense, fast-paced ska punk style, which quickly resonated in the underground music scene.

The Suicide Machines achieved broader recognition with their 1996 debut album, "Destruction By Definition," which featured the hit single "No Face." This album became a quintessential piece of the '90s punk scene and is often cited as an influential record for many bands that followed. Throughout their career, they've been known for addressing social and political issues through their lyrics, a trait that continued across albums like "Battle Hymns," "The Suicide Machines," and "War Profiteering Is Killing Us All." After an initial disbandment in 2006, they reunited in 2009 and have continued to energize fans old and new with records such as "Revolution Spring," released in 2020, which showcases a matured sound while staying true to their punk roots. Their dedication to ferocious live performances and their ability to evolve without sacrificing their core principles have cemented The Suicide Machines as stalwarts of the punk community.
