World Gone Mad is the twelfth studio album by the American crossover thrash band Suicidal Tendencies, released on September 30, 2016. It is the band's first studio album to feature Jeff Pogan on guitar, Ra Díaz on bass and Dave Lombardo on drums. Vocalist Mike Muir has stated that World Gone Mad may be Suicidal Tendencies' final studio album.
Suicidal Tendencies released their eleventh studio album, titled 13, in 2013, and it received mixed to positive reviews by critics. By the time of its release, it was rumored that 13 was the first of three albums that Suicidal Tendencies had finished in 2011. Guitarist Dean Pleasants commented, "13 was some of the stuff that Mike mentioned in that. But yeah, I think if there's something else that comes out in the future it will definitely be us writing again. But some of the songs, as time changes you change with how you feel and how you write, and sometimes Mike will take a song and totally change the lyrics of it and maybe the way the chorus or something is and it became what it is now. We've never had a problem with material; we've never had a shortage of material. Our biggest problem is what to put out, so it's like the opposite for us. I know some bands spend a lot of time working on four songs and we'll go in and crank out a bunch of tunes. Everybody always has so many ideas that, for us, it's a matter of finding the ones we think fit really good together."
In a December 2014 interview with Loudwire, vocalist Mike Muir was asked if Suicidal Tendencies were going to make a follow-up to 13. He replied, "Right now I have no answer to that as far as the previous one. There were a lot of things that went on and I think for us now, if everyone said they wanted to get into the studio and there was something they really wanted to do, I'd take it into consideration. But we're in the studio all the time, we're always recording." In an April 2015 interview with Metalhead Blog, guitarist Dean Pleasants revealed that Suicidal Tendencies had been working on new material for a possible compilation album.
In a February 2016 interview, Muir hinted at a new EP, followed by a new full-length studio album, inspired by the current political climate and upcoming election. He also stated that the new album and EP may be the band's final recordings, although he added, "I thought the first one would probably be the last we would do, too."
