Though it's been threatened with closure for more than a year now, legendary downtown punk/DIY venue the Smell is still going strong. On Sunday, Aug. 27, the all-ages space hosted one of the acts that helped put it on the map: noise-rock duo No Age, who played a nostalgia-filled set for the Smell faithful. R.R. Barbadas and Gun Outfit opened. All photography by Shane Lopes.
