В 1999 году, спустя целых пять лет после выпуска предыдущего альбома, группа Suicidal Tendencies записала не просто политически оппозиционный релиз, а сбросила на головы американских политиков „Freedumb“ – бомбу едкого сарказма. Проведу аналогию. Представьте себе, если бы какая-то группа из России поместила на своём альбоме карикатуру на знаменитую фотографию „Знамя Победы над Рейхстагом“. Так вот, на обложке „Freedumb“ – карикатура на известный каждому американцу исторический снимок «Поднятие флага над Иводзимой» (она изображает пятерых морских пехотинцев США и санитара ВМС США, поднимающих флаг Соединённых Штатов на вершине горы Сурибати во время битвы за Иводзиму во Второй мировой войне. Исходом этой битвы, повлекшей громадные человеческие потери с обеих сторон и значительные денежные вливания, была победа американцев). Само название альбома - это неологизм, который иронично обыгрывает слово freedom - один из идеалов американской демократии.
Напомню, что предыдущий альбом „Suicidal for Life“ был невероятно высокого уровня. Я даже не побоюсь утверждать, что „Suicidal for Life“ - это не просто хороший релиз в своём стиле, это творение, которое является образцовым вообще для рок-музыки. Да, формально это трэш-альбом с использованием ритмических построений фанка, но некоторые композиции реально „тянут“ на рок-песни с Большой Буквы - „No Bullshit“, „Love vs Loneliness“. В каком-то смысле этот альбом – результат мощной саморефлексии Мьюира, и поэтому он ассоциируется прежде всего с Майком.
„Freedumb“ не похож на „Suicidal for Life“. Он более экспериментальный и ещё более техничный (хотя, казалось бы, куда ещё больше). Новый басист группы Джош Пол, который сменил Роберта Трухильо, творит просто чудеса техники – сразу поражает басовое интро в „Scream Out“ или в „Built To Survive“. Альбом получился более фанковый, чем его предшественник, и в этом заслуга Джоша. Кроме того, в некоторых композициях есть гранжевое звучание: великолепны в этом плане „Naked“ и „Heaven“! Не менее удивляют хардкор-композиции своими „ритмическими паузами“ и практически хард-роковыми риффовыми построениями: „Hippie Killers“, „Get Sick“. С точки зрения гитарной работы этот альбом – бриллиант чистой огранки. Да и Мьюир снова удивляет своими „ораторскими способностями“: его речитативы блестяще спаяны с ритмическими структурами. Появились голосовые наложения-переклички – в „We are Family“. Хотя подчеркну, роль Майка в группе теперь уравновешена. Можно сказать, что „Freedumb“ - это альбом именно вновь обновлённой группы Suicidal Tendencies, заслуживающий максимальной оценки. Однако мировоззрение самого Майка сильно поменялось...
I'm so excited today I'm gonna die
But I'll live forever so it's not really goodbye
God has a plan for me and a plan for you
So there's no reason to cry |

Where's your freedumb I got your freedom
Get your freedumb we got your freedom
Ain't Gonna Take It
Ain't gonna take it - Amymore (3x's)
Don't mess with my head - don't mess with my head
Don't mess with my head - don't mess with my mind
Now you messed with me the very last time
Well I'm mad as hell - hell that's the truth
For someone like you I got no use
Chorus: Ain't gonna take it - Anymore (3X's)
It's a quarter to pain - half past hate
I got to get moving cause I'm running late
It was all thought out, but now I'm breaking the pain
In a moment we'll find out who's the man
Well you should have stopped and seen that I'm not the one
Now there's no stopping what's got to get done
You shouldn't have messed with my head
You shouldn't have messed with my mind
And now you'll find out about cyco time
Chorus: Ain't gonna take it - Anymore
You picked at my soul - you picked at my brain
You pushed my button like I'm a video game
You picked at my head you picked at my mind
But now you've picked on me the very last time
Cause I'm heavy on my mind and I'm light on my feet
That's just the sad facts thats not conceit
You picked at my head you picked at my mind
But now you've picked on me the very last time
Ain't gonna take it Ain't gonna take it Ain't gonna take it
Chorus: Ain't gonna take it - Anymore (3X's)
Scream Out
Pressures charging try to stall - Pound my head against the
wall
I've been feelings this for way to long
I've been fighting this for way too long
Something's bout to happen - get out of my way
Something's better happen - get out of my way
Chorus:
Scream and shout - let it out
Rip it out - Scream and shout
Scream and shout - let it out
Break it out - Scream and out
Scream out (5X's)
Hypnotized, Analyzed - A sorry attempt to sanitize
When I've been feelings this for way too long
When I've been fighting this for way too long
I guess I'll do it my way - your's don't work
I'm left to do it my way - your's don't work
Half Way Up My Head
I don't know what is it
But I'm acting like I know
I don't like what I see
But I never let it show
You can not understand
What you were not meant to find
So I lock it in a vault
Halfway up my head
Halfway up my head
Halfway up head
Halfway up my head - that's where it got stuck
If you're trying to change me - well you're just out of luck
I know what I am and how I must be
Halfway up my head
Chorus:
Halfway up my head
It got stuck
Halfway up my head
Halfway up my head in a back of a file
I put up a front with a wink and a smile
All of the things that you've done and you've said
Halfway up my head Halfway up my head
Chorus
When I don't know what to think
Then I don't know what to say
When I don't know what to do
I still do it anyway
So if I sound confused
You're listening all wrong
I take it piece by piece
And I cut what gets to long
Halfway up my head
Halfway up my head
That's where it got lost
Don't like what you said so the message got tossed
You can not lock up what was meant to run free
The spirit in me, the spirit in me
I don't ask for no help and I won't
Cyco Vision
You tell me what I wanna hear
I hear it all with my ears
But that won't do me any use
So I use my eyes to see the truth
I've got CYCO VISION
I use CYCO VISION
I said CYCO VISION
I see with CYCO VISION
It doesn't matter what you say ... bullshit
It only matters what you do ... no shit
You cannot take the easy way out with me
'cause I got cyco vision
You put a smile on your face
To try and hide behind your lies
But it just magnifies the pain in your soul that I see with my CYCO VISION
When you think with all your might
You change right to wrong and wrong to right
But it stays the same to me
'cause I got cyco vision
I Ain't Like You
Too much time on my hands
Too much salt in my wounds
Too much pain in my heart
Too many things to regret
I've been thinking
The cause of my confession
I've been thinking
The cause of my oppression
I've been thinking
What's causing my depression
I've been thinking
Because of my depression
Won't do that change again
Continuous lies never end
I'd hate myself if I thought like you
I'd have to hate myself to do the things you do
Cause I ain't like you
I ain't like you
Too much getting no where
Too much waiting to see
Too many lies have been told
Too many things thought in my head
I've been thinking
The cause of my confession
I've been thinking
The cause of my oppression
I've been thinking
What's causing my depression
I've been thinking
Because of my depression
Stand up small hypocrite
Your full of lies your full of shit
I hate myself sometimes that's true
But I can't hate myself enough to be like you
I ain't like you
I ain't like you
I ain't like you
I ain't like you
Dirty job rearrange
Smoke it up just taken change
I can not hate myself
I can not hate myself enough to be like you
Naked
I'm harmless won't you help me
I'm sickness only you can heal me
I promise that I always be there
I'm naked under my clothes
I'm feeling naked
I feel naked
My heart's bleeding why don't you help me
I'm screaming but still nobody hears
Helpless and naked
Helpless and naked
Helpless and naked
Naked, naked, naked, I'm naked
I'm harmless till I hate you
I'm tasteless that's why I'm with you
I'm sensless even on payday
I'm naked under my clothes
You saw me naked, you saw me naked
I'm saddned by all my failures
It's a good thing
I real good things I don't try
I miss you whenever I'm with you
Cause I thought that,
I thought that you were someone else
I saw you naked,
I saw you naked,
I saw you naked,
Naked under our clothes
We're all naked under our clothes

Built To Survive
You've heard about the war in my head
And I've been known to wake the dead
I'm not evil just possessed to skate
And feeling like shit, just don't feel great
Built to survive,
Built to survive,
Built to survive,
I'm built, I'm built, I'm built to survive
So much time spent alone
And I'm still searching for my home
Built to survive,
Built to survive,
Built to survive,
I'm built, I'm built, I'm built to survive
Had my scrapes with the law
Is that your mommy that I saw ?
They tried to ban us from L.A.
But every dog has his day
Built to survive,
Built to survive,
Built to survive,
I'm built, I'm built, I'm built to survive
And we're built to survive
It's 1999 and going cyco's all that's on my mind
Controlled by hatred lost again
What I don't need is a friend
I want more you fascist pig
We are family, we live to live
Built to survive,
Built to survive,
Built to survive,
I'm built, I'm built, I'm built to survive

I'll Buy Myself
Quack quack wop woop
I'm about to get my thrill
And I don't it from no funny ass pill
I'm about to straight break loose
I could fight it but it ain't no use
I'm about it this far away
From going off and making someone pay
I'm about to buy myself
Quack quack wop woop
I'm about to toss and turn
No sleep tonight I got a lesson to learn
I'm about to throw a fit
I can't seem to find the time to quit
I'm about ready to roll
Light on my feet with my gutted soul
I'm about to get my thrill
Anyway I will
I'll buy, I'll buy myself
I ain't got, I got noone else
I'll buy, I'll buy myself
When i go on sale
I'm about 105
Died years ago, but I'm still alive
I'm about 17
It's time to reinvent the punk rock scene
I'm about one inch small
When it seems that's noone cares at all
I'm about to buy myself
Quack quack wop woop

Heaven
I'm so excited today I'm gonna die
But I'm going to heaven so there's no reason to cry
God says he loves me and I love him too
Yes I have struggled, but but now suffering's through
I don't want you to cry
I just wanna say
I'm so excited today I'm gonna die
But I'll live forever so it's not really goodbye
God has a plan for me and a plan for you
So there's no reason to cry
There's no reason to cry
Cause I'm going to heaven
I'm going to heaven
Yes I'm going to heaven
I'm going to heaven
Over head such a shinning light
As playful angels hover in flight
In the blindingly brilliant pure white
A sensation so peacefully
My soul rises separates from my body
The pearly gates I can now clearly see
I've gone to heaven
Hallelujah
I'm so excited again I'll never die
I'm up heaven so there's no reason to cry
