Product Description

Punk heavyweights return with a frenetic album that is an unabashed musical lash out. Lyrically the band does not disappoint, covering topics ranging from the hypocrisy of the "humane slaughter" of animals to the subliminal Nazi subtext of sports broadcasts. This is punk the way it was meant to be - four skids playing fast and sincere, firing off an intelligent and critical analysis of the flailing world around them. A collection of boundless power and depth that's a 50,000 watt forward thinking tip of the hat to the giants who went before them: Voivod, Rush, SNFU, Sacrifice, Razor, Guilt Parade. Combined sales of previous releases over 450K.

Supporting Caste [Vinyl] Review

Propagandhi's new album was the greatest experience in music since I got into the Beatles, since not even the Beatles music has made me hold back tears. Yes, you read that right, read it over again. Nothing has impressed me as much as this did on a first listen. If you've never heard "Potemkin City Limits," this will probably take you a few listens to get in to. Potemkin took me a few listens and "Supporting Caste" takes this sound further. Chris Hannah's guitar work is as impressive as always, and "the beavers" guitar work doesn't detract from Hannah's at all, which was definitely something I worried about. I feel as if I could've played "Potemkin City Limits" and "Less Talk, More Rock," in front of my mom and it wouldn't bother her, "Supporting Caste" would need some more tolerance and understanding, though not as much as "How To Clean Everything."

The album starts out with the incredible "Night Letters," which starts out with Propagandhi's most metal moment ever. I wouldn't have even realized it were them until the Todd starts singing and the song explodes in all its thrashy gloriness. For those STILL hoping for another "How To Clean Everything," you won't find it here, and really should've stopped expecting HTCE 2 after hearing "Today's Empires, Tomorrow's Ashes." Either way, I almost feel like this album was made for me. "The Banger's Embrace," is a great song that brilliantly contrasts the darker feel of most of the album, with a more upbeat sound and positive vibes. I'm assuming this is what Chris was referring to in saying this album mixes PTC with "Less Talk, More Rock." The song's is especially effective after following up the incredibly thrashy "Incalculable Effects." "Dear Coaches Corner," is probably my favorite of the slower, more melodic songs on here. It's been stuck in my head constantly from the 2nd listen. The way he sings the opening words "Dear Ron Mclean, dear coaches corner," are sure to not leave your head. For the fans of the short and fast songs, which has sort of been a tradition since "Less Talk, More Rock," "This Is Your Life," won't disappoint. I do kind of wish Chris would sing one of the short ones though (Who doesn't like "Rio de San Atlanta, Manitoba?!"). "Come to The Sabbat," is an interesting hidden cover track at the end of "Last Will & Testament", that is a very unusual sound for Propagandhi, albeit a cover. It'd definitely be a fun sing-a-long live song. The only other gripe I have with this album is that I loved "Bringer of Greater Things," and "Cut Into the Earth" on PCL, but Todd's songs on these ones are much thrashier and I like the way he sings, it was surprising after his performance on Today's Empires. The lyrics on this album are less political overall, but that certainly doesn't mean they've lost their edge, the lyrics are intelligent as ever- still very impressive. The insert is jam packed with notes from Chris and links to organizations and causes, plus some quotes (including a frightening one from Hermann Goering, Hitlers 2nd in command, which you will immediately identify as happening today).

Bottom line is if you're a metalhead who likes punk at all, get this album. If you're really into punk rock and like thrash at all, you'll love this album as well. If I had to sum up this album in 2 words it'd be "thrashy" and "epic." I wouldn't call any track on this album filler but standout tracks would have to be "Night Letters," "Supporting Caste," "Human(e) Meat (The Flensing of Sander Katz)," "Incalcuable Effects," then the rest of the album less then a step behind.
