Review - :
On {^Free Your Soul and Save My Mind}, {$Suicidal Tendencies}' umpteenth studio release, the band revitalizes their moribund skater {\punk} sound. After a series of disappointing full- and partial-length albums, this effort hits the mark in most respects. Once again, they sound like accomplished musicians, rattling off funky riffs and spirited three- to four-minute bursts of {\punk}. {&"No More, No Less"} sparkles with the bifurcated bass and guitar lines of {$Robert Trujillo} and {$Mike Clark}. {&"Children of the Bored"} features some of the heaviest sections {$Suicidal Tendencies} have ever recorded. The album's zenith is {&"Start Your Brain,"} a powerful old-timer {\punk} tune with seriously wigged-out distortion techniques. The end result is refreshing and hard-driven, albeit mildly anachronistic. The only drawback of this release is frontman {$Mike Muir}'s continued writer's block. His lyrics remain repetitious and uninventive: a shadow of his former self. However, in most instances, the quality of the music makes up for it. [A Japanese version added a bonus track.] ~ Kieran McCarthy, All Music Guide
