The discography of the Smoking Popes, a Chicago-based pop punk band, consists of six studio albums, two live albums, two compilation albums, six EPs, five singles, one video album, and four music videos. The Smoking Popes were founded in 1991 by brothers Josh and Matt Caterer, with Josh on vocals and guitar and Matt on bass guitar. With drummer Dave Martens they released their debut EP ''Inoculator'' through local Chicago label Radius Records. Martens was then replaced by Mike Felumlee and the band released the EPs ''Break Up'' (1992) and ''2'' (1993) themselves. Josh and Matt's brother Eli Caterer then joined on second guitar and the band signed to local label Johann's Face Records, releasing their debut album ''Get Fired'' in 1993.〔 The band's second album, ''Born to Quit'', was released in 1994 through Johann's Face.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Smokingpopes.net )〕 The Smoking Popes then signed to major label Capitol Records, who re-released ''Born to Quit'' in the summer of 1995.〔 It became their only release to chart, reaching #37 on ''Billboard'''s Top Heatseekers chart, partly on the strength of the single "Need You Around" which reached #35 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart.〔〔 ''Destination Failure'' followed in 1997.〔 They next recorded an album of cover songs titled ''The Party's Over'', but Capitol rejected it and the band broke up in December 1998.〔 Following the Smoking Popes' breakup Josh and Eli Caterer and Mike Felumlee performed together in Duvall. Felumlee also founded Double Zero Records and released several albums of previously recorded Smoking Popes material: the compilation ''1991–1998'' appeared in 1999, followed by ''Live'' in 2000 and a release of the Capitol-rejected ''The Party's Over'' in 2001.〔 In November 2005 the Smoking Popes, with drummer Rob Kellenberger, reunited to play Chicago's Flower 15 festival.〔 The performance was recorded and released as the CD/DVD package ''At Metro'' through Victory Records in February 2006.〔 Ryan Chavez drummed on the band's fifth studio album, ''Stay Down'', released in 2008 through Curb Appeal Records.〔 Neil Hennessy of fellow Chicago punk rock band The Lawrence Arms became the Smoking Popes' permanent drummer prior to the album's release. In February 2010 Asian Man Records released the compilation album ''It's Been a Long Day''.〔 The band's sixth studio album, ''This Is Only a Test'', was released March 15, 2011 through Asian Man. == Studio albums == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Smoking Popes discography」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
