Suicide Commando releases reworked classic ‘Come Down With Me (V2025)’

Taken from Collective Suicide Vol. 2 — Pre-Order the full Collective Suicide Vol. 1+2 collection now, releasing June 5, 2026

Belgian electro-industrial icon Suicide Commando releases “Come Down With Me (V2025)” via Out Of Line Music. The track is a reworked version of one of the project’s most enduring cuts, now revisited and recontextualized as part of the upcoming anniversary collection Collective Suicide Vol. 1+2, due June 5, 2026.

“Come Down With Me (V2025)” demonstrates exactly why Johan Van Roy‘s work has retained such a hold on the dark electronic underground for four decades. The rework strips back and rebuilds the track through the lens of Van Roy‘s current production sensibility – punishing industrial rhythms, razor-sharp EBM architecture, and that distinctively venom-laced vocal delivery, making it feel simultaneously familiar and dangerously new.

The track lands as a preview of Collective Suicide Vol. 2, the second part of a sweeping anniversary retrospective spanning the past decade of the project’s history. Alongside fresh versions of “Jesus Freak” and “Death Lies Waiting,” the collection also features a brand-new original, “Control & Consent”, making this far more than a standard archival release.

Collective Suicide Vol. 1+2 marks 40 years of Suicide Commando (1986-2026). The original Collective Suicide Vol. 1, released for the project’s 30th anniversary in 2016, documented the earliest recordings from 1987 through to 2016. Vol. 2 picks up where that left off, delivering previously unreleased versions, rare B-sides, and reworked classics from the past ten years. Both volumes are now available on colored vinyl for the first time, and for the diehards, an extremely limited Wooden Fan Box Set brings everything together in one place.

Suicide Commando will be celebrating their 40th anniversary on stage throughout 2026, including a special anniversary show at Wave-Gotik-Treffen in Leipzig and a headline show in São Paulo, Brazil on 22 August 2026.

Suicide Commando is the solo project of Belgian musician and producer Johan Van Roy, formed in 1986. Beginning with a series of self-released demo tapes in the late 1980s, the project steadily evolved into one of the most important and enduring acts in the harder electro and EBM underground. The 1994 debut full-length Critical Stage marked a turning point, leading to a string of landmark releases including Mindstrip, Axis of Evil, Bind, Torture, Kill, Implements of Hell, and the 2022 album Goddestruktor, which reached number 9 on the official German album charts. Club anthems like “See You in Hell,” “B.T.K.,” “Die Motherfucker Die,” and “Hellraiser” remain cornerstones of the dark electro scene. A regular fixture at festivals including Wave-Gotik-Treffen, M’era Luna, Amphi Festival, and Infest, Suicide Commando continues to be one of the most electrifying live acts the scene has to offer.

Collective Suicide Vol. 1+2 celebrates 40 years of this legacy – from the earliest demo tapes of 1987 to the reworked classics and brand-new material of 2026, pressed, printed, and sealed for the diehards.
