Pat’s Vegan Anthem of the Week (edition #10)
PROPAGANDHI. ALL DAY. EVERY DAY. PROPAGANDHI – “Mutual Friend” Lyrics: there was nothing remotely romantic about it. no hand-me-down sob-stories, either nurtured or genetic. so what was so goddamn important that i felt i had to shelve each and every one of my convictions? secured and mutually reassured of our consistency. but your defense rejects… Continue reading »

Really trippy 1980′s anarcho-punk from the UK, very much in the same vein as Crass. Many of their lyrics had to deal with the tumultuous social/political climate that was the 80′s. Rudi Peni experimented… Continue reading »
