Year of the Cycos was available exclusively at concerts during Suicidal Tendencies' 2008 tour and is currently available via the band's official e-card and website.

Some tracks are older songs, like No Mercy's "Crazy and Proud" which was originally released in 1987, while others tracks are recent re-recordings of previously released songs, such as Suicidal Tendencies' "Two Wrongs Don't Make a Right" which originally appeared on their 1987 Join the Army album. Year of the Cycos is essentially a sampler of tracks from planned forthcoming releases by Infectious Grooves, Cyco Miko and Suicidal Tendencies. (Their subsequent No Mercy Fool!/The Suicidal Family album, a collection of re-recordings of previously released songs, was released in 2010.)

The Suicidal Tendencies song "Come Alive", heralded as a return to the classic era Suicidal sound from the early 1990s complete with distinct guitar solos, had a music video created for it.
