SUICIDAL TENDENCIES Vans Shoes Coming Soon

January 28, 2010

Long-running Venice Beach, California thrash/punk band SUICIDAL TENDENCIES has two types of shoes available via Vans: the "Suicidal Tendencies Era" and "Suicidal Tendencies Sk8-Hi". Check them out at this location.

"We did have input into the shoes," singer Mike Muir told AOL's Noisecreep. "Years ago, we had another shoe company ask us about doing a shoe, but to be honest, when I was 12 and getting ready to go back to school in September, I would go out and get new pants and shoes and I always got my Levis and my Vans. Now it's like, 'Wow, our own Vans?' When they started doing band Vans, we turned down others, in hopes for our own Vans one day. I finally got my prom date, so to speak. It's like I stayed home from the prom for a few years, until Vans came along!"

When asked if he would be wearing his own Vans, Muir beamed, "Oh yeah, of course. They sent me prototypes, in size nine, and they said, 'That's the size we send because it doesn't fit most people, and we don't want you wearing them early!' So I have them in the studio, sitting there. And when people see them, they are like, 'What the fuck are those?'"

Fontana Distribution has just released "Live At The Olympic Auditorium", SUICIDAL TENDENCIES' first-ever DVD release. The DVD came out January 26, 2010 via the band's own imprint, Suicidal Records. The approximately 80-minute DVD features 16 tracks, including ST classics "Institutionalized", "War Inside My Head" and "Possessed To Skate" and captures the band in their most natural environment: onstage, uncensored and ready to tear you to shreds.
