Abe Vigoda Tours, The Term “Tropical Punk” Still Conjures Mental Images of Tattooed Hipsters with Malaria

Let me make this clear. Abe Vigoda, the California foursome so often referred to as “tropical punk,” is on tour, not Abe Vigoda, America’s favorite caterpillar-browed thespian. Well, maybe Peter Gallagher is more your style. Either way, this is about punk rock, not eyebrows.

Abe Vigoda (the band) will be trekking across a fine chunk of the USA this autumn, including a brief California jaunt with none other than Vampire Weekend, the group everyone loves to love but then hate when everyone loves them then love again because everyone hates them now and you need to keep yourself separated from the pack and so on and so forth. But as we saw in the inscrutable Abe Vigoda (the actor) vs. Peter Gallagher debate, all that shit doesn’t matter except for the fact that Abe Vigoda is a rad punk band that you should probably see on its current U.S. tour.
