Clever Songs By Canadian Punks or Anarchist Punks Crime

All right I finally purchased the new Propagandhi album "Supporting Caste". Also picked up Against Me!s Crime 7". I have been meaning to pick up the Propagandhi album for a while now but haven't been to Amoeba in a while. I am stoked on the new album-good songs. It came in a 2x12" LP set. Cool. No color vinyl but still cool. Starting listening to it I was first a little wary because the first song sounded familiar. It seemed a lot like the songs off of "Potemkin City Limits". Chris' singing pattern was the same and guitar riffs similar. Then that song passed and the rest of the album kicked my ass. Glad to hear The Rod screaming some songs. I really liked the interlude between The Funeral Procession and Without Love. Without Love is a great song as well-good summary of life. And the final song Last Will & Testament is an epic song. Love the way the song rocks out for like three minutes before vocals kick in! Great! Worth the wait for sure. As for the Against Me! 7" it was good. Nice to hear a couple songs I haven't heard from them before. Yall Don't Wanna Step To Dis is a new personal fav for me now. Still awaiting the new Larry Arms 7"-just a little over a month before Buttsweat And Tears is available. Got my tix to their show at the Troubadour on Nov 7th-YES-can't wait. Still need the new Rancid(it can wait{come on it's not like it's gonna be their best}) Will probably pick it up next paycheck. Other than that not much in music news~SO-Until next time-In the words of Bill and Ted "Party On!"

Sounds Like A Robot

Things. Dripping from a hole in your head. What? Wait. There it goes all the values you made us believe you actually had. No. NO. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Not any more-now you are a systematic automaton. Built to be complacent. A product of the system__________THIS SOUNDS SO CLICHE' But it's true. As one walks the streets of a modern American city you can see it on the skyline. No one will pry themselves away from what is slowly draining the life from their very essence. I try to look into the eyes of a fellow human being as we walk down the cracked sidewalk, but indeed they are trained not to show feeling. Do not socialize-Work-Eat-Sleep-REPEAT! Where has humanity gone? We pretend we care for others than ourselves but when you look at the fleeting society in which I am exposed to you see the dirt under the fingernails-the skeletons in the closets if you will. The blackness of the hearts of a nation of egos
swells in the underbelly of a quiet storm. Rise up! Repent! Try the flesh of the simple. It's tender! Go to church-school-work-Grab a gun and KILL for Uncle Sam! Or if you are so sluggish and lazy you can't do that-THAT'S FINE-We got a place for you too-CONSUME CONSUME CONSUME!!! Buy our goods-Eat our food-You'll be fine. The shadows fall from the sky and rain injustice on people who just want to breath. It will not be you who walks in their line that falls-No, no, no. It will be those who choose not to comply that will burn! Then after they weed them out you will be free to buy/sell/DIE! What a wonderful time to be alive.
