Speaking about "Smoked" the band mention - "[It's] an anthem dedicated to the escape from angst and our mundane society that skateboarding gifts you. As a skate culture double entendre, "Smoked" means to fall and slam really hard when trying a trick. This is exactly what it felt like to be an American during the pandemic. We slammed really hard, and all we wanted was an escape."
