Propagandhi — Supporting Caste

in
By Sheena Lyonnais (CHARTattack) March 11, 2009 2:03 pm
Propagandhi's fifth studio release has upped the ante for the Canadian punk-meets-metal rockers. Lyrically, the album is ripe with controversial political and social issues, but it wouldn't be a Propagandhi album if it wasn't. The vegans and animal rights activists spread a preachy amount of meat-eating hate throughout the album along with a...

Propagandhi — Potemkin City Limits

in
By Keith Carman (CHARTattack) October 18, 2005 1:53 pm
Refusing to let down their throngs of intelligent, politically-oriented punk rockers, Winnipeg's Propagandhi hit a relentless stride with Potemkin City Limits that only serves to feed their mystique. Naturally, there's nothing overtly surprising with this effort — the band maintain their primary focus on thought-provoking social commentary...

The Jimmy Swift Band have broken up. But don't cry! Vocalist Craig Mercer and keyboardist Aaron Collier are still making music as Scientists Of Sound and are touring in support of their new Wealth & Hellness album. M83's next album is going to be a double LP. It's going to be about dreams. Makes sense, since I fall asleep while listening to...

Thrice are returning with a new record dubbed Major/Minor on Sept. 20. It's described as "entirely different" than their last album, which is a relief because if a band literally released the same record over and over again, that'd be kind of, you know, awkward. Angry at mom and dad? Got a lot of xxxaggro bullshitxxx to take out on people you'll...

There was one point where Propagandhi were one of my favourite bands. But then they released Potemkin City Limits and I gave up on them. While this is no How To Clean Everything, it's the most vital they've sounded since Today's Empires, Tomorrow's Ashes. There's no "Purina Hall Of Fame" or anything quite as good on this one, but it's a...

The press release for Propagandhi’s fifth full-length, Supporting Caste, describes the Winnipeg quartet as "visibly-aging prairie skids." The punk act have made music together for about two decades now, and it's no secret that they're beginning to get up there in years. Have they grown any wiser as time has passed? "If wiser...

"North America is a fun happy place, unless you live in Winnipeg at Chris Hannah's house." NOFX's Fat Mike said that at a recent Edmonton gig. While it was obviously meant to be a joke, that quote neatly sums up a fact about Hannah's band, Propagandhi. It's been over 20 years since they first got together, and Winnipeg's most famous...

Thick into festival season yet again (why does it feel like I'm always saying that?), the city seemed to grind to a halt last weekend as the seas parted and those who would usually infiltrate the dank aura of a humid club at night traded in their cocktails for sunblock at the 30th annual Winnipeg Folk Festival. This weekend it's a similar...
