Sunny Day Real Estate and Bikini Kill were bands originating from what state?
Sunny Day Real Estate Sunny Day Real Estate was an American emo band from Seattle, Washington. They were one of the early emo bands and helped establish the genre. In 1994, the band released their debut album "Diary" on Sub Pop Records to critical acclaim. However, shortly after releasing their second album "LP2", the band broke up, with members Nate Mendel and William Goldsmith joining Foo Fighters and Jeremy Enigk embarking on a solo career. In 1997, they regrouped long enough to record two more studio albums and a live album but ultimately disbanded once again in 2001. The band reunited again in 2009. Bassist Nate Mendel, who chose to remain with Foo Fighters during the previous reunion in 1997, took part in this reunion. In a 2013 interview with MusicRadar, Mendel said Sunny Day Real Estate was inactive. According to Mendel, the band attempted to record a full-length album after the end of their reunion tour, but the sessions "just fell apart". In 2014 the band released one song from those sessions, "Lipton Witch," on a split 7" vinyl with Circa Survive on Record Store Day.
Suicidal Tendencies Suicidal Tendencies (also known as S.T. or simply Suicidal) are an American crossover thrash band founded in 1980 in Venice, California by vocalist Mike Muir, who is the only remaining original member of the band. Along with D.R.I. and S.O.D., they are often credited as one of "the fathers of crossover thrash". Their current lineup includes Muir, guitarists Dean Pleasants and Jeff Pogan, bassist Ra Díaz and drummer Dave Lombardo. Notable former members of the band are lead guitarist Rocky George (now in Fishbone), rhythm guitarist Mike Clark (formerly of No Mercy, now in Waking the Dead), bassists Louiche Mayorga (now in Luicidal), Robert Trujillo (now in Metallica) and Stephen "Thundercat" Bruner, and drummers Amery Smith (later of Uncle Slam and the Beastie Boys), Jimmy DeGrasso (formerly or later of Y&T, White Lion, Alice Cooper and Megadeth, now in Ratt) and Brooks Wackerman (now in Avenged Sevenfold).
