Duplicate Keys Icaro (An Interim Report)
Now that’s a mouthful. I can’t wait to hear that one guy up front at every one of our shows screaming “Play ‘Duplicate Keys Icaro (An Interim Report)’!” over and over.
Yeah, so if you want to hear this new song, go here and open your earballs folks. Enjoy responsibly.
Support Russian Band PUSSY RIOT!
freepussyriot.org is a website to support Russian feminist performance art group, Pussy Riot. Three members of the group are being held in a Russian jail under completely inhumane conditions. They face 7 years in jail for a 1‑minute performance in a priests-only section of Moscow’s Cathedral of Christ the Savior. The song they performed is a critique of the relationship between the Russian government and the Catholic Church of Russia. Apparently special treatment for the church is of more importance than freedom, humanity and justice.

Failed States comes out on September 4th! Then we play some songs live where you live (maybe)!
Hello fellow confused and frightened inhabitants of spaceship earth. how are you today? Me too. So here is the news literally tens of you have been waiting for: our new record, “Failed States”, will be unleashed on September 4th/2012 via Epitaph Records, leaving you plenty of time to enjoy it’s contents before Nibiru comes flying out of the Oort cloud and annihilates Earth in late December, vindicating paranormalists and pseudo-scientists worldwide for about 14 nano-seconds.
Here, listen to a song from it and see if it’s your cup of crude.
If you’re really a keener (and like to wear shirts — of the non-sweatshop variety) you can pre-order “Failed States” here, thereby killing two trophy-hunters with one crossbow bolt.
If you’d like to join us in person to witness us insult each other’s hairlines this fall, please click on the “Shows” link at the top of this page. UPDATE: a kind european fellow has brought it to my attention that inhabitants of that part of the planet can pre-order the record here. Ausfarht!
For Jobs, Growth and Long-Term Prosperity: Free John Hinckley.
hello fellow serfs,
remember that remake of “Bullshit Politicians” that was supposed to be on the that comp years ago but then wasn’t on that comp for some silly reason that no one involved cares about anymore? well, in honour of the total handing over of the country’s keys to corporate interests by Stephen Harper’s Conservative Party (i wish they’d conserve something for once), also known as Bill C‑38, we dug up said track from the deep within the Propagandhi archives and put it on that thing called “band camp”. you can take it for free (i think) or you can buy us a virtual beer and a smoke with a donation while you follow the link in the description to see what’s so bad about favouring multinational corporations over the people that actually live here. who knows? maybe one or both of us can actually get out from in front of our computers and join those already trying to do something about this dark day. crazier things have happened.

The music world has lost a great and talented musican.
I want to send out a message of respect and to honour Rob Doherty (Final Darkness, Pericardium, Into Eternity) who just passed away. Roughly 20 years ago I started watching Rob in his first band Metalist and I totally loved the last recording he did with his new band Final Darkness. The last song on the Final Darkness record was a cover of Razor’s “Evil Invaders” so he definitely went out rocking as hard as he started. We’ll miss you, man.

Propagandhi "Supporting Caste" guitar and bass tab book!
Attention all ye riffers, lickers, and rockers! Today is the official release of the Propagandhi ‘Supporting Caste’ guitar and bass tab book! We, along with our friends Luke and Tim (Sheet Happens/Protest The Hero), painstakingly put this book together with a sharp attention to detail so it’s as close as possible to what we played on the record. We had a ton of fun making it and we hope you’ll dig it!
“It’s an unbelievable tool for learning new tunings, capo use, original voicings, and face puckering riffs and solos. Complete with an introduction by the band and various pictures throughout. Also featuring a “Performance Notes” section where the band give suggestions on tough sections and altered tunings.”
Eh!!
