Year of the Cycos is a compilation album of bands featuring vocalist Mike Muir, released in 2008. It features new and previously released songs by Suicidal Tendencies, Infectious Grooves, Cyco Miko, and No Mercy.
Year of the Cycos was available exclusively at concerts during Suicidal Tendencies' 2008 tour and is currently available via the bands official e-card and website.
Some tracks are older songs, like No Mercy's "Crazy and Proud" which was originally released in 1987, while others tracks are recent re-recordings of previously released songs, such as Suicidal Tendencies' "Two Wrongs Don't Make a Right" which originally appeared on their 1987 Join the Army album. Year of the Cycos is essentially a sampler of tracks from planned forthcoming releases by Infectious Grooves, Cyco Miko, and Suicidal Tendencies (their subsequent album, a collection of re-recordings of previously released songs, was released in 2010).
The Suicidal Tendencies song "Come Alive", heralded as a return to the classic era Suicidal sound from the early 1990s complete with distinct guitar solos, had a music video created for it.

Famous quotes containing the words year of the and/or year:
“The liberal wing of the feminist movement may have improved the lives of its middle- and upper-class constituency—indeed, 1992 was the Year of the White Middle Class Woman—but since the leadership of this faction of the feminist movement has singled out black men as the meta-enemy of women, these women represent one of the most serious threats to black male well-being since the Klan.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
“We are often made to feel that there is another youth and age than that which is measured from the year of our natural birth. Some thoughts always find us young, and keep us so. Such a thought is the love of the universal and eternal beauty.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
