The Cigarettes

The Cigarettes

The Cigarettes has been played on NTS shows including RTZ, with They're Back Again, Here They Come first played on 12 October 2015.

The Cigarettes were one of those late 70's / early 80's combos that are impossible to pigeon-hole - which is great!! Were they Punk? Well, a bit too smart really. Were they Mod? The image may have been but the music was harder, more powerful. Were they Power-Pop? Once again, all the ingredients were there but the pure power and inventiveness of some of the songs meant that they could not fit in the Power-Pop catchy two minute song bracket. So, sod the stereotyping.
