Smugglers - Film is a cornerstone of Vancouver's indie and garage rock scene. Formed in the mid-1990s, they carved a niche with a sharp blend of garage grit and melodic pop punk. Their breakthrough album, Selling the Sizzle!, arrived in 1996 on Mint/Lookout and helped propel the band onto North American stages and international rooms alike. With a career spanning studio releases, extensive tours, and celebrated reunions, Smugglers - Film remains a touchstone for fans of high-energy, hook-driven rock.
