Songs from Suicide Bridge is an album by Eric Caboor and David Kauffman, self-released on their private label Donkey Soul Music in 1984. The pair recorded the album at Caboor's childhood home in Burbank, California, from within a repurposed tool shed and using a four-track recorder. A folk-rock album, critics have highlighted its dark lyrics, slow tempo, and spare instrumentation.
Caboor and Kauffman recorded 13 songs for the album but were forced to pare down the final selection to just 10 songs, owing to the length limitations of the LP format. Only 500 LPs were pressed, and despite shopping the album around at various mainstream and college radio stations, the album sold poorly and languished in obscurity for several decades. In 2015, Songs from Suicide Bridge was reissued by Light in the Attic Records. It has since received largely positive reviews; critics regard the album as having an ahead-of-its-time sound, prefiguring the slowcore genre by nearly a decade.
