SuckPump is the first album by New York industrial band Bile, released in 1994.[4] The album was released on the now-defunct Energy Records. Bile re-released the album in 2003 alongside their out-of-print second release, Teknowhore, as a digipak titled Frankenhole.

SuckPump was written and recorded by Chris 'Krztoff' Liggio and produced and engineered by David 'Slave' Stagnari, Robert 'Void' Caprio, and Krztoff (reported on the album as Kristoff).

"I Reject" was part of the soundtrack of the 1995 film adaptation of Mortal Kombat.

Critical reception

[edit]

The Encyclopedia of Popular Music gave the album 4 stars (out of 5) and called it a "classic."[3] The Washington Post wrote that the songs "are formed around ordinary dance tracks, then fed through a meat grinder of distorted vocals and crushing guitars, resulting in tunes that would be almost catchy but for the throbbing instrumental attack."[5]
