Cyco Miko announces My Personal Revolution and revisits Monster Skank for its 35th anniversary

Cyco Miko, the long-running creative outlet of Mike Muir, will release My Personal Revolution on 12 February via BMG. The 13-track collection gathers new and previously unreleased recordings from across Muir’s musical world, including material connected to Suicidal Tendencies, Infectious Grooves and Los Cycos.

The announcement arrives alongside a new version of Monster Skank, re-recorded to mark 35 years since the track first emerged as part of the Infectious Grooves story. The updated cut features Jakob Nowell of Sublime on vocals, Larry LaLonde of Primus on guitar, Brooks Wackerman on drums and Robert Trujillo on bass.

From crossover thrash to funk-metal detours

My Personal Revolution moves between the different projects and sounds associated with Muir, from Suicidal Tendencies’ hardcore punk and crossover attack to Infectious Grooves’ skewed funk-metal excursions. Among the collaborators are Fred Durst, Thundercat and Tim Armstrong of Rancid.

The collection opens with SCHIZO, featuring Durst, while Armstrong joins Suicidal Tendencies on Spinning out of Control. Elsewhere, the track list includes an acoustic 35th anniversary version of Asleep at the Wheel, alongside the title track and a run of recordings attributed to Infectious Grooves and Suicidal Tendencies.
