Suicide Nation was a metallic blackened hardcore band from Tempe in Arizona, formed in 1997.
Now split up, Suicide Nation released two full-length albums and two splits.
Often associated with the anarcho-hardcore and black metal scenes, the band issued the following position statement:
"Suicide Nation was never an anarchist band, nor a black metal band. We were definitely strongly influenced by and huge fans of early black metal and thrash. Our songs were about war with Christianity, as well as self loathing and trying to escape those mindsets/ Our personal politics were leftist in nature to varying degrees, focused on DIY culture. Our first bassist was personally involved with the anarchist ideology... to classify, we were a metal influenced hardcore band"
