"Inflammable material, planted in my head...."

Come Oct. 1 through Nov. 6, 2019, Stiff Little Fingers' "Suspect Device" and heaps of the band's other raucous tunes will once again be blaring out of PAs in the United States. From Phoenix to Orlando, the Northern Ireland juggernaut will hit the road for 26 dates to celebrate the 40th anniversary of its first album, "Inflammable Material."

"As part of a longer set, we shall be playing that record in its entirety (apart from "Closed Groove" which we don't like much!) ;-)" the band wrote on its Facebook page today.

As a bonus, the Avengers will join SLF for the entire tour.

To me, SLF is all about raw passion, emotion and solid songs that can both fuel your anger and leave you with a smile on your face. You will find yourself wanting to punch walls or even dance around the room. It's about being human. It's life.
