Canadian Political Punk Rockers Struggle After Henry Kissinger's Death
2024-11-18
Canadian political punk rockers Propagandhi find themselves in a creative rut following the passing of their creative inspiration, Henry Kissinger. Frontman Chris Hannah reveals the difficulty of putting pen to paper without the possibility of Henry Kissinger ever hearing their new songs. A portrait of Kissinger taped to a dartboard in the band's rehearsal space has finally been taken down. Hannah expresses his hope for an afterlife where Kissinger is eternally deafened by the voices he silenced on Earth. There is even a wish that Satan might play 'Resisting Tyrannical Government' in his cell for millennia.

Record Label's Hopes for a New Muse

Staff at Propagandhi's current record label, Epitaph Records, are eager for the band to find a new muse soon. Brett Gurewitz, co-founder of Bad Religion and owner of Epitaph Records, sympathizes with Propagandhi's writer's block. He mentions that Bad Religion haven't even texted each other since the death of Pat Robertson. Gurewitz is hoping to release new music from Propagandhi soon and has been signing them up for every conservative political campaign newsletter he can find. He hopes one of these MAGA chuds will inspire the band. Personally, he would love to see them write a concept album about Marjorie Taylor Greene.

The Complex Relationship Explained

Political science experts delve into the complex relationship between imperialist, reactionary politicians and leftist punk bands. Dr. Renee Loer, Dean of Political Sciences at the University of Winnipeg, explains that the bond between punk artists and fascists is parasitic. The former feeds off the latter like a remora on a manta ray. Politicians provide the rage, substance, and reason for existence. Without this antagonistic relationship, bands like the Misfits or Sunny Day Real Estate emerge. These bands are great but don't inspire action beyond re-watching Night of the Living Dead or brooding.

Hannah's Search for Kissinger's Spotify History

As of press time, Chris Hannah took a unique approach. He contacted a hacker to acquire Henry Kissinger's Spotify history. It was a surprising discovery as it turned out that Kissinger was more of an Anti-Flag guy. This unexpected revelation adds another layer to the band's story and their struggle to find a new creative direction.
