Freedumb is the ninth studio album by American crossover band Suicidal Tendencies.[5][6] It was released in 1999 on Suicidal Records.[7]
The tracks are rawer than the funk-influenced thrash metal direction they were taking before the hiatus. The album's cover art is a reference to the photo Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima taken during World War II.
Reception
[edit]CMJ New Music Report wrote that the songs "display thousand-mile-an-hour, classic hardcore guitar assaults."[8] In 2005, Freedumb was ranked number 489 in Rock Hard magazine's book of The 500 Greatest Rock & Metal Albums of All Time.[9]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
