Smoking Popes/Roll the Tanks/Two Hand Fools

Ironic that in 1994, Smoking Popes released an album called Born to Quit, and nearly 20 years later, the guys are still going at it. While they’ve just released a new studio album just last year, for this tour, they’re revisiting their glory days and will play Born to Quit, the album that got them their major-label deal, in its entirety. The disc, which includes introspective tunes such as “Gotta Know Right Now” and “Mrs. You and Me” pairs singer Josh Caterer’s Morrissey-like vocals with punk rock music that’s teeming with good, sharp hooks.
