Suicide was an American musical duo composed of vocalist Alan Vega and instrumentalist Martin Rev, intermittently active between 1970 and 2016. The group's pioneering music fused stream-of-conscious, rockabilly-inspired vocals with minimalist electronic instrumentation, including synthesizers and primitive drum machines, and their early performances were confrontational and often ended in violence. They were among the first acts to use the phrase "punk music" in an advertisement for a concert in 1970, during its very brief stint as a three-piece including Paul Liebegott. Though never widely popular among the general public, Suicide has been recognized as among the most influential acts of its era. The band’s debut album, Suicide (1977), was described by Entertainment Weekly as "a landmark of electronic music", while AllMusic stated that it "provided the blueprints for post-punk, synth pop, and industrial rock."
