Started in Portage La Prairie, Manitoba all the way back in 1986, Canadian punks Propagandhi technically pre-date Rage Against The Machine by a good five years. While their early era was spent exploring the anarchic energy of old-school punk rock and feel-good factor skate-punk, however, it was only after Rage’s explosion onto the scene that their message became more organised, pointed and politicised, with 1996’s seminal Less Talk, More Rock vociferously espousing values from anti-capitalism to veganism on pointedly-titled tracks like Apparently, I'm a 'P.C. Fascist' (Because I Care About Both Human and Non-Human Animals) and The Only Good Fascist Is a Very Dead Fascist. A quarter of a century on, with 2017’s fantastic Failed States still ringing in our ears, their fire still burns.
