Institutionalized

It's the Diablo family coming up, and it's the Diablo family hour.

But before that, we're gonna kick it off with Body Count covering Suicidal Tendencies, Institutionalized.

'Cause all he wanted was a fucking Pepsi.

Right here on Monsterpiece Theater.

So, you gotta wait till the end of the video, but it's pretty sick because he's in, like, a trashed house, and he starts doing bonelesses and street plants.

Uh, another one for you, Suicidal Tendencies, Institutionalized, featuring jump ramping and Mike Muir.

I would say also, in addition to that, the Devo, um, Freedom of Choice video.

Yep, Devo, Freedom of Choice.

Soon after, drummer Egert quit and was replaced by Greg Smith, whose tight timing turned each track into a blistering wall of sound.

Ball's guitar riff became the hallmark, a slow grinding riff that would become iconic in their first single, Institutionalized.

When the band released Institutionalized in 1983, they became the first hardcore punk group to shoot a video that landed on MTV's Rotation.

The clip's rawness, shouts over a wall of bass and distorted guitars, made viewers scream in their cars as they rolled down windows.

The lyrics, especially the opening line about institutionalized men, riled up school officials and even led to a temporary gabang at several local venues.
