Scott "Stza" Sturgeon, the mastermind of Leftover Crack and Star Fucking Hipsters has announced a UK and France tour focused on his previous band, Choking Victim. The New York-based ska/punk outfit formed in 1992 and broke up in 1999 after releasing just one proper studio album, 1999's No Gods / No Managers. His bandmate - who presumably won't be involved - Ezra Kire was involved with Leftover Crack and recently resurrected Morning Glory for a new album due out next month.
For the tour, Stza has recruited Dublin's ska/punk band Chewing on Tinfoil to provide both support and backing for the Choking Victim sets.
