Suicidal Tendencies was birthed from the Venice clique Suicidals (STx3) in the 80s. Suicidals was a multiracial punk gang founded by Mike Muir (also the founder of the band), whom and many other bandmates were originally Venice 13. The gang formed as a response to the nazi skinheads who were ruling the scene at the time and dominating over African American and Latino minorities. Despite the gangs affiliation to the southside, Crips were also very commonly present. Major cliques formed in Long Beach, Santa Monica, and many other parts of LA. They were one of the most violent and dangerous punk gangs of the 80s, and beefed with other punk gangs such as Circle One Family, and L.A. Death Squad.
