I will Trust me. When I first TETA I thought it was typical and boring, and now I t's one of my favourites, and the same happened with this new album. give it time grasshopper.

I got it yesterday. It fuc[SIZE="2"]k[/SIZE]ing owns.

Drum Phil 10-19-2005 04:37 AM

After a few listens none of the tracks really stand out to me

TakeWarning 10-19-2005 04:46 AM

I reckon Track 1(I forget the name), Track 12 and Die Jugend Maschiert. Not stand out like Purina Hall of Fame or Back To The Motor Leauge did, but still standy-out-ish.

feldwebel 10-19-2005 06:18 AM

bringer of greater things is one of that songs that stands out

otherwise iteration fixed frequencies

Bicuspid 10-19-2005 07:39 AM

Propagandhi gets better with every album. Loved How to Clean Everything, Less Talk was even better, TETA was ****ing amazing, and I think PCL is just as good, quite possibly better than TETA. I was fortunate enough to have to review it for the college radio station (still in training) about 2 weeks ago, and it hasn't left my playlist since.

123. Except IMO How to Clean Everything> Less Talk More Rock. And welcome to the forums.

Bicuspid 10-19-2005 07:49 AM

Thanks. Hoping I finally found a good forum to discusss punk, where the latest trends in the genre aren't felated beyond belief.

I'll felate [i]you[/i] beyond belief for a small sum of money, however.

You better! I'm poor, and that money could easily go towards Ramen!

I like HTCE over every other album but I still love them all being HTCE > TETA > PCL very close and LTMR.

carl 10-19-2005 01:09 PM

Here's the review I wrote for it for a SoCal magazine. I could have made it three times as long, but I was told to keep it under 200 words (which I didn't do).

Most people I know think of Propagandhi as that skate-punk band that sort of sounds like NOFX but are more political. How 1993. Since then Propagandhi has gradually left their skate-punk sound behind, maturing into a more hardcore/metal influenced punk sound that resulted in their last record “Today’s Empires, Tomorrow’s Ashes.” On first listen, “Potemkin City Limits” sounded just a little more mellow and a little less inspired than their last effort, but after reading over some of the best political/issue-based lyrics I have ever read and giving the CD a few spins, this one has grown on me like mold on the cheese I left on the counter last week. Bassist/Vocalist Todd “The Rod” Kowalski has a greater presence on this one and takes the reins on one of my favorites, “Bringer of Greater Things”. Not only does he actually sing on this one instead of his normal screaming, but they’ve thrown in a Hammond Organ, something I never thought I’d hear Propagandhi utilize. The reason I love the song so much is because it shows how, although it’s more subtle this time, Propagandhi have once again tried something new and completely succeeded. “Potemkin City Limits” will be in my CD player until those assholes at Big Wheel ask for it back.

I guess I'll check this out. Any recommended songs?

carl 10-19-2005 01:25 PM

[QUOTE=Sweboy]I guess I'll check this out. Any recommended songs?[/QUOTE]
Bringer of Greater Things

[QUOTE=PunkLoserKid]After a few listens none of the tracks really stand out to me[/QUOTE] 123!! I got this cd today and TETA kills it but it is an alright album.....maybe after another 10 listens I will like it a bit more, i can only hope :thumb:

Buzzbomb 10-19-2005 07:54 PM

I listened to it the second time today, i did realize it was actualy a good album, i don't think its as good as TETA though.

Bicuspid 10-19-2005 09:59 PM

A Speculative Fiction
Fixed Frequencies
Iteration
Fedalliah's Hearse
Rock for Sustainable Capitalism (Bashes the hell out of Fat Mike on this one.)
Cut into the Earth (Great mellow, jazzy feel to it; even in the harder parts it still maintains that mellow feel. Definitely a lot different from most of their ventures)

The album is a lot less Thrashier than TETA, that threw me off a bit on first listen; but the melodies, lyrics, vocals, drumming, etc are put together so well it floored me by the second listen. This album has so much undertone and various things going on, you don't really pick up on most of it by the first listen. Lyrically, I think it's their best to date, easily. It's a lot less angry in comparison to older albums, but it seems to be thought out a lot more. Not to say a single bad thing about past lyrics, these just seem more direct. Probably the best way I could describe the comparison.

sketchyjoe 10-20-2005 03:05 AM

Rock for Sustainable Capitalism is the best song on the album. Die Jugend Maschiert is also awesome. The other songs are all good.

I still feel it's slightly over-produced though.

fatwreckpunk 10-20-2005 05:30 AM

I feel its not as good as it could have been, they have gone for a diverse sound in a lot of the songs

lynch_me 10-20-2005 05:45 AM

shutup.

TakeWarning 10-20-2005 06:04 AM

I forget, are Propagandhi on Fat Wreck, because if they are, then why would Fat Mike allow them to release Rock for Sustainable Capitalism.

feldwebel 10-20-2005 07:53 AM

cause they have total control over their music!

thats why fat wreck is great.

Pete 10-20-2005 08:04 AM

[QUOTE=TakeWarning]I forget, are Propagandhi on Fat Wreck, because if they are, then why would Fat Mike allow them to release Rock for Sustainable Capitalism.[/QUOTE]
Cause Fat Mike would say, "Nay, ye coked-up canucks, you can't sing what you want about me! I'LL DROP YOU FROM THE LABEL!"

albert_bass 10-20-2005 08:05 AM

^Yeah, I don't know what happens with some of you guys and Fat Wreck, it's a pretty good label and of course they'll let you have opinions.

[QUOTE=sketchyjoe]Rock for Sustainable Capitalism is the best song on the album. Die Jugend Maschiert is also awesome. The other songs are all good.

[B]I still feel it's slightly over-produced though[/B].[/QUOTE]

I completely agree. Pretty awesome though even being overproduced.

MrClean 10-20-2005 08:07 AM

Just listened to the album, and damn.. It's great :D Not their best album [I liked 'Less Talk, More Rock' more], but still very good..

Bringer of Greater Things, Name And Address Withheld and Rock for Sustainable Capitalism are my favorite songs of this album..

sketchyjoe 10-20-2005 08:44 AM

Some of the songs feel slightly drawn out.

Pete 10-20-2005 08:47 AM

[QUOTE=sketchyjoe]Some of the songs feel slightly drawn out.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, that'd be my one complaint about it. But they fill most of it with excellent lyrics (unlike a lot of other bands who wouldn't have as awesome lyrics to begin with, and then would repeat lyrics to elongate their songs).

its not as good as everyone thinks it is. Give me todays empires, tomorrows ashes any day over this !!!!!!!!!!!!

Your opinion doesn't count or matter to anyone in the world. When they release their next album, you'll be crying about how much more you liked potemkin city limits. I also happen to think it is as good as everyone says because they put a lot of work into it, I can tell. I love jordan's drumming in this one.

carl 10-20-2005 12:51 PM

Yeah, it is. If you have any appreciation for musicianship, lyrics, and style complimenting substance, you'll agree.

Im going to get dissed for this just because i dont really like the new propagandhi album. I'm just telling the truth

Good.

Buzzbomb 10-20-2005 02:30 PM

I come to like this album more with each listen, its not gonna leave my cd player for awhile. Jord's drumming is the best work hes done.
