Another record that I spent a lot of time listening to the last couple of months is the new album from Propagandhi. Released in May this year, 'At Peace' is the band's 8th album and even though I picked up their first when it originally came out, I only really got around to listening to anything else that they have done a couple of years ago. And whilst I wasn't aware that this one was coming, after seeing a few people post it on instagram, I was interested. Something about the cover art and the vinyl colour just made me want one.
This colour is called 'Cloudy Pink & Blue' and this is a UK and Europe exclusive. To me this looks like what would have been referred to as 'marble' in old fashioned speak. It also looks nice with a lightsource behind it.
The first time I played this I was asbsolutely blown away by the opening song which is really powerful and sounds nothing like I have heard this band sound before. I read something at some point that said that they have basically become a 'prog punk' band, and whilst I don't agree, I kinda get what was meant. However you want to describe it though, this is a really good record, and makes me realise that there is a whole lot of Propagandhi back catalogue that I need to delve into.
