---------------------------------------------------
➡️ I'm stoked to finally get to ‪@Propagandhiofficial‬! It was tough narrowing down which song to do because every song request was different, which is a sign I MUST check out more! "Failed Imagineer" from 2017's "Victory Lap" caught my eye in the comments, and I loved this band's take on tech metal with a really upbeat "punk" feel. I'm the most intrigued by their songwriting style: they really move along as a single unit and accent every vocal phrase, which makes even the verses sound like huge, impactful anthems. Bassist Todd Kowalski seamlessly weaves in and out of the sudden changes, truly gluing the song together with beautiful melodies using a rich, clean tone. I discuss the continuous interval jumps he accents phrases with, his use of chords, and break down the effectiveness of his bass solo and how it contrasts against the vocal lines near the end. The rich guitar orchestrations create a playground for Todd to be melodic, and it was done in such a luscious fashion. I wish the song had been a touch longer, because I really want to hear the full scope of Propagandhi's style!

Their song “Night Letters” is EXACTLY what you’re looking for in terms of contrast to this song to really show the depth of their discography. Good tempo/vibe changes and some absolutely killer riffs in a heavier almost prog-punk-hardcore I don’t even know what you’d call it lol. Also, for a bonus, it’s part of the small group of songs that Todd sings instead of Chris. And maybe as a bonus, you could do a double and throw in “Hadron Collision” which is just a like 1 minute ripper that borders on thrash lol.

@@GopherGuts2000 Dude, 'How to Clean' is still great because it's Propagandhi and it was certainly one of the best/most unique albums in the genre (imho) at the time in the mid-'90s and Samson is a great bassist. But as other commentors have noted, Prop has just gotten better and better over the years. 'Less Talk, More Rock' is one of my favorite albums ever, and while 'Today's Empires, Tomorrow's Ashes' was a new shift in sonic style with Todd in the mix, 'Potemkin City Limits' is when they found a new gear and through to 'Victory Lap' have just been on another level. My two cents and all.

@TiernanSongs 4 месяца назад

One of the most important bands in rock as a whole, perhaps. 🤣

@stefanheuldoch883 5 месяцев назад

Propagandhi's my all time favorite band. The bassist was John K. Samson (The Weakerthans) for their first 2 Albums, when they were a lot closer to one of those kinda goofy skatepunk-bands. When Todd came in for their 3rd album "Today's Empires, Tomorrow's Ashes", they became a lot more unique and technical in their style and sound and every follow-up is kind of a natural evolvement from it's predecessor. I think "Supporting Caste" is a fan favorite. I personally can not pick a favorite. It usually takes them 6-7 years to put out a new one, though. The singer and guitarist/main songwriter Chris Hannah is the most talented musician I can think of in that genre, and his lyrics are a poetic deep-dive into history and philosophy, requiring a lot of background knowledge to acurately interpret. Sorry...but I'm so enthusiastic about them. I'd recommend "Last will and testament" from supporting caste, which is a little different from their thrashier side with an incredibly melodic bassline, or "Purina hall of fame" from Today's empires, which is extremely straight forward.

The funny thing is... When Todd first joined the band, it was his first time playing bass. Before that he did vocals for a few other bands. I personally wouldn't consider him an outstanding bass player, but the fact that he started from almost zero and made his way up to being a pretty good bassist is respectable. Also, if you're looking for a heavy album, Suppprting Caste and especially Failed States would take the title.

@chrisegg7936 5 месяцев назад

I listen to Chris Hannah's podcast on patreon a lot and when he said Todd had never played bass before Propagandhi, it was a real "well what's my excuse then?" moment lol. It also made me realize that a lot of the Todd songs are actually written by Todd on guitar! Dude's too damn good.

I’ve lost count how many times I’ve watched this video. One, because I love this song, and second, it’s so much fun watching you react to it. I’ve been trying to see if Todd was using a pick or not, and I was convinced that he was using fingers after you went back a watched that part again. Now I’m convinced he uses a pick the whole song, except for the little bass solo near the end. The couple times his right hand is shown, it looks like he’s picking, but when he’s playing with his fingers, during the (solo) you can see his pick in his mouth. Not sure why, but this became a mission for me because I wasn’t sure. Keep up the great work. These videos are fun!!

@ligairi 2 месяца назад

Wow! Great catch with the pick in the mouth. I’ve seen him play that solo so many times I was convinced he was a finger player but your comment got me to go watch two live performances and you’re exactly right. He played the song with a pick and switched to fingers for the solo.

@justinfaucett2421 5 месяцев назад

Their first couple of albums, “How to Clean Everything” and “Less Talk, More Rock”, in my opinion, were more straight punk, but you could hear the thrash and hardcore influences. When I first listened to “Todays Empire, Tomorrows Ashes” I really noticed the change in their sound. Much more hardcore and metal sounding. It’s like they became really serious, after the light- hearted first couple albums. “Mate Ka Moris Ukun Rasil An” is the first track from “Todays empires, Tomorrows Ashes,” and it sets the tone for everything afterwards. The bass is good too!! Another great video in your punk journey. It’s exciting to watch you listen to these songs for the first time!!

Man, your reading regarding “the band following the vocals” is PERFECT. I think this is one of the greatest attributes (among many others hehe) in Propagandhi.

Great Video buds, being a Canadian I was exposed to Propagandhi when I was just a kid. It's hard to narrow down one song if theirs for you but I think "Back to the Motor League" is a good example of what the band is about as a whole. It is an absolute banger and their most listened song on spotify.

That record hasn't left my car since 2017. (Yes, I still buy CDs.) They've been one of my favorite bands since ~1994. Chris is such an amazing guitarist (see: Dear Coach's Corner). I'm sure 2,000 people have already mentioned this, but an imagineer is a Disney employee.

Propagandhi's my #1 band of all time, love a band that doesn't get caught up in genre trappings and just makes the music they want to make. Their original bassist was actually John K. Samson who went on to form The Weakerthans. Todd joined the band for their third full length, around the same time they were looking to break away from their pop-punk counterparts and incorporate more of their metal influences. Their discography is all over the place, I highly recommend a deep dive for anyone curious!

This is so different from the original propagandhi that I grew up on!! I thank you for putting me on to their newer stuff, I really want to slap myself in the face for not keeping up with this band lol

I absolutely love this series. Great song choices. I would opt for Failed States for another Propaghandi song. Harder but still has that techy thing that makes them such a unique band.

@jacobcedeno3021 5 месяцев назад

Love this channel huge fan. A hardcore and punk fan also growing up I listened to a lot of "low rider" oldies because of my Hispanic Chicano background. With that said there's a band called Thee Sacred Souls. Yes a complete different vibe, but the bassist is so good and I feel underrated. If you listen to their song "Future Lover" that song is worthy. Anyway don't expect you'll see this, but if you do this song has a killer baseline if you do get a chance. Much love keep making these videos they're the shit.

@peterdelvillano9432 5 месяцев назад

Like many on here, Propagandhi is one of my favourite bands. Every album is unique - they never get stale. Also when you asked, I wonder if they get heavy? I was laughing to myself. Yeah, they get heavy. I would love to hear you check out Back to the Motor League by them. I also love how you don't just comment on the bass but put it in perspective with regards to the whole song. Make some great insights into songwriting that way - I learn a lot from it.

With this video you earned my suscription... But with the whole set (lagwagon, the decline, tool) you definetely earned my full and fond attention! I've spent hours watching your high quality videos! Can't wait to see more propagandhi. The songs you're looking for are NOTE TO SELF, LOTUS GAIT, DUPLICATE KEYS ICARO. after those you should check SUPPORTING CASTE the full album from top to bottom. What an enormous band.... congrats for your job! from argentina!

@Ebony9762 5 месяцев назад

I been seeing Propagandhi for over 20 years. I grew up in Winnipeg there home town. Todd used picks alot in the beginning so he can probably play fast like punk/hardcore. Todd had a band called I Spy and he played guitar. He seems to use his fingers alot more with more recent stuff. This band is probably the most progressive punk band from the 90s!

Man, love your breakdowns and reactions. This band is sonically very progressive, thrashy, to more skate/pop/punk sensibilities, but I think underappreciated. Adventures in zoochosis is just a really cool song with some dynamic changes Night letters, last testament, diplicate keys icaro, lotus gait, specupative fiction, fixed frequencies would all be super interesting to hear you react to!
