YFT are an amazing band! Bands like these don't come around anymore. Great.

What is with the blatant smoking of cigarettes? Did dude just pick it up and is psyched to show it off or something? Is the band sponsored by Camel Lights? Is he 15?

Ever see the back of the Farside "Rochambeau" LP, circa '92? Ever notice the ashtray full of cigs? They're Popeye's, I'm assuming. Revelation did release bands that weren't straight edge, you know?

Popeye is a great guy, and "dude"s probably been smoking longer than you've been alive.

Popeye looks like Anthony Bourdain.

"Is the band sponsored by Camel Lights?" Ha, I thought the same thing. Both recent photos of Popeye, he's got a cigarette in hand. As someone who is not straight edge, I must say that cigarette's are totally lame. They create absolutely no value--pollute the air, pollute the streets, pollute your lungs and others as well. If you smoke you should be embarrassed and hide it from public view, not flaunt it for the kids to see.
