  • My favorite one from this band!

  • i was 13 when i first heard this song and im 30 now and still love this fuckin record....long live 1990's punk rock!!!

  • Loved these guys since 14 and they live close to me :)

    WINNIPEG REPRESENT (only the good parts of the city, not the ganstar murdering parts lol)

  • @kampaikampaikampai nobody cares and oh yeah you suck nadz

  • i fuckin love punk thats all been listenin since i was a kid and now im a adult and still the only thing i play on the ghetto blaster!!! everytime punk is played it feels almost like a orgasm and thats whats its all about!!!!!!eargasms kill;

  • the genre system is broken. but I can say I love music that is typically played by punks.

  • I wish they still had john I still think their great but when he was in the band we got a breather from all political songs something that kinda ruins there newer albums for me

  • Having said that my beliefs are progressive left so I love Propagandhi. Plus they write great songs.

  • Punk is nothing more than an area of music. A range of worldviews have been found throughout punks history

  • fuck

  • stop talking about whats punk on this shit. this band isnt even punk, and you guys really thinking that this shit is punk just proves why you shouldnt be talking about whats punk.

  • @menospeakyenglish it's Hardcore, which is a kind of punk. at least this album is. I don't know all their music good enough to say they are punk. but from I read they sound like Crossover Thrash, which isnt punk, but has some punk roots.

  • @siglerproductions This is not hardcore, nor any sub-genre of punk. besides pop punk hahahahahaha.

  • @menospeakyenglish more hardcore then any lame 80s hardcore subgenre of the ramones.you only sing hardcore if you are pissed off for no reason.i could play anything from hardcore on my peepee = no talent.

  • @workshop1536 Good for you! and just the fact that you used Ramones as an example of hardcore shows you don't know shit just like anyone else calling this hardcore.

  • @menospeakyenglish subgenre brizoid.Not intentionally drawn from.either way hardcore is just a bunch of really really pissed off emo kids that arent smart enough to win a discussion so they take it out on a microphone.Ramones arent all that great either.They all suck.

  • @workshop1536 you're an idiot

  • TEAR THE WHOLE FUCKING THING DOWN!!

  • U CAN ALL STFU<< JUST ENJOY,,,, THANKS FOR POSTING

  • Girls with the greenest eyes

  • i like in the lyrics where chris (in the linear notes) replaces the bassist's lines (the guy from propagandhi and weakerthans) that have 'shaking' with 'flaking'

    he's poking fun of the bassists part being mushy

  • A song for all of those who shot and miss...

  • Punk is like being hesh, if you say you are, your probably not. Punk doesnt give a fuck what it is, because it is what it is.

  • Amazing song. How about you guys quick talking "punk philosophy", because like any kind of philosophy, it's solely based on one person's opinions and how they interpret things. Not everyone's going to agree.

  • @rosiegirl001 you suck nadz to

    

  • @rosiegirl001 dear god, someone actually said 'punk philosophy'? Ahahahaha, oh man. Youtube comments make my butthole pucker.

  • @samisaberle I seriously cannot read them. I get acid reflux if I do.

  • holy fuck I love this song, excellent mixture between John's and Chris' lyrics and vocals

  • Not all "little rabbits" are cut out to survive without their "wolves" sadly for the rest of the population with brains someone has to keep the retards wrangled and everyone is grouped in like cattle. Unfortunately it doesn't matter if you're smart enough to be out of the governments control, you're just another numbered cattle they have to keep an eye on. We live in the second roman empire... and we will fall just as hard only fast food will do us in, not lead XD

  • Love the intro (: lml!

  • anarchy isn't anti government but it is against being governed. it is not needed a government to make you behave. government can exist all it wants but true anarchist just want out of its control because their control is basically enslavement. people who revere government as anything better than a man whipping you telling you that your name is Toby is fucked in the head and they can keep their brainwashed bullshit (x

  • I never have and never will pledge allegiance! Fuck, YEAH!!!

  • punk isnt anti government. anarchy is. dont mix up the two. theyre totally different

  • My favorite song off of the album. I love listening to it when I'm writing lyrics

  • Does anybody know where i can get this album?

    Gotta have it ^ ^

  • @RippedJolt thats a link to download it. use winrar to extract it if you have a pc. if you have a mac, figure it out yourself.

  • @RippedJolt, you can order the cd off of amazon, thats what I did :P

  • @RippedJolt amazon

  • Great song. And known Propagandhi fans The Broadways must have had this in mind when writing the outro of "Jonathon Kozol Was Right...": youtube.com/watch?v=fvqPfKDhWm­A#t=2m12s

  • Comment removed

  • Fuck you guys, I wanna be in the argument on EVERY youtube video too.

    So I'll choose this one. I wanna act like a retarded 12 year old too.

    fuk pnk rck itz gay imma go listen to lil wayn nd jackoff in da coRnEr now

  • wow you are all retards this band is suppose to be satirical not political especially this album so shut the FUCK up and learn to laph at youerselfs

  • fools standout! 

  • everyone saying that government is bad and we "need to wake up" are fucking idiots. Grow up you teenagers. No im not talking about the song, im talking about the mentally retarded leaving comments.

  • @emceelew yes these kids do need to grow up. I dont see a huge percentage of the population of america packing their shit and moving to mexico or iraq or north korea because they have so much better living conditions. if life in america was really that bad, something would have been done by now. look at the french, even they grew a pair and had a revolution.

  • absolute power, corrupts absolutely. If we all wake up, and get rid of the fake golden goose egg, the fools will standout in the crowd.

  • John.K is the man

  • governments have always been filled with a bunch of corrupt assholes or some stuck up douche bag evn back hundreds to thousands of years ago and they will continue to be corrupt and imprison people and tell them they cant do what they love for more generations. so i say fuck 'em and fuck their ways.

  • @ikillurchildren isnt it time for your nap?

  • @skugglerthrash isnt it time for u to take ur best friends dick up ur ass? oh sorry u dont have friends but u would take any dick in ur ass

  • fuck politics.

    i don't understand them what so ever. especialy political executions.

  • some people seem to dislike this song because of Chris's vocals, but I could call this my all time favorite Prop song!

  • this is skate punk i dreamed of... :) a sunny autumn morning my board and one or two sixpacks becks! :) :) :)

  • Comment removed

  • @hunggarguy sounds nice, but unfortunatley there are alot of dumbass idiots in this world who need to be put in check with laws. I do agree that we have too many laws though. Also way too many fucking taxes that they spend in foolish ways or stuff right into their own pockets.

  • Those who give up their liberties for little security, deserve neither liberty nor security. Benjamin Franklin

  • This is a fucking love song you knuckledraggers.

    Listen to the verses instead of the bridge at the beginning, jesus, yall have some fuckin ADD or something if you cant make it more than 45 seconds through a song.

    Its about failed relationships and the way western society functions when it comes to love, sex and what norms we're expected to follow, duh.

  • Classic tune

  • John K. makes this song. That's not to take anything away from the rest of Propagandhi, though.

  • it sounds like a love song at first but then gets angry, i like it

  • At 12 yrz of age perspective iz very different apparently 2 yourz "thedude928" who seemz 2 have a rough, analysis of sociology & punk. Love the contradictionz ..... cr@p in it's finest form. Great song dude 8-D......

  • @lauren2364 Which language was that in?

  • @CustomWeapons ... I believe its called Brainius mc f**kurus vocabulurus 8-)

  • what's with all the dumbass 12 year olds with mommy and daddy issues trying to tell everyone else what punk is? shit, kids, it's just a fucking mind set: nothing more, nothing less. it's not the shit in your hair and dress code. it's not believing the misconstrued meaning of anarchy. and it is certainly not about these bullshit rules you pillow bitters keep making up to classify "what is" or "what isn't" punk.

    for fuck's sake, just enjoy the god damn music.

  • In Orwell's book 1984, Big Brother was the result of anarchy.In Anarchy, force of law comes at the end of the barrel. Anarchy is the actual state of all being. Some way, some how power is established. Once power is had it will be exerted. Through conflict, balances and concessions are made. Since overlording is inevitable, we must decide whether or not to exist with those who have accepted it or continue in conflict. This is true for all people

  • Comment removed

  • all you wannabe anarchists go home and blog on your computers, listen to your ipods, and cruise the shopping malls.

    true anarchy ever comes and all of you little faggots will be crying.

    careful what you wish for little kiddies

  • @enoche1974 definition of anarchy: "A social state in which there is no governing person or group of people, but each individual has absolute liberty (without the implication of disorder), but is bound by a social code." if you dont know what the fuck are you talking about its better to shut your mouth

  • @zolevokpk Fuck your social code. ANARCHY mother fucker.

  • @meowsthi learn to read my friend.

  • @zolevokpk I know how to read, but like most brutish, assholes, I choose not to. Again, I say, ANARCHY, motherfucker!

  • @meowsthi claps(ironic clapsing) people like you would die in an anarchy

  • @zolevokpk Yeah, kids too. And lawyers. And you too, unless you're one of those crazy survivalists who can pick berries and shit. ANARCHY!!! YEAH! WOOO!!!!

  • @meowsthi dude you want anarachy move to the wilderness no ones gonna stop you, but since you on a computer right now i geussing you dont want anarchy. anarchy mean no computers no electricity no good food and no music other than aucustic, ANARCHY WOULD SUCK ASS. plus in an anarchy there'd be no law keeping me from bashing you over the head chaining you up using you as a slave. like i said ANARCHY WOULD FUCKING SUCK.

  • @nomadfoy Well, have fun trying to bash me over the head, tying me up, and using me as a slave? Oh no, there's no one to protect me! oh god, please someone keep me safe. I'll gladly sell away aaaall my freedoms just to be safe from you. Oh noes, what am I going to do, the world I live in is dangerous. You're a real moron, just go away.

  • @nomadfoy actually, what meowsthi said to you was 100% correct. all in all said, Nomadfoy, your a fucking idiot who I swear is 99% mentally retarded.

  • @nomadfoy you obviously dont understand anarchy at all it just means theres no central government it doesnt mean there would be no form of organization and certainly doesnt mean no computers

  • there has to be poilce to uphold the common law but not any legal statutes. I'm british, proud of the land I reside but not the government that atempts to overpower. i never asked to a citizen my parents unknowingly signed a declaration to say i am part of the united kingdom corperation. Do I need to be govenerd? watched over 'just in case'. Am i a child? well no i'm 27 and a human being not a person! punk to me is saying that government is not needed if it treats everyone like children.

  • Because of this band, I've learned that it's a love hate relationship with America but don't be a complete drone, ok bitches give it up!

  • Comment removed

  • This song made me squirm in my pants when no chicks could do it for me...

  • @haolerot22

    That's terrific.

  • I had this LP I was young and did not understand the meaning of the lyrics, i loved the harmony though. Now im older this band sort of pisses me off, they live in America, stop complaing like whinny bitches and move out of the fucking country to Eastern Europe, see how much better it is

  • @vitojoe223 Dude... they live in Canada, and they aren't just talking about America. They talk about what's wrong with society, like objectification of women, people blindly following religion, corrupt governments, etc. Go on their website and look in the FAQ section. There's a question asking "Do you guys hate America?" and they say that they don't hate America at all and that a lot of their friends are American. Educate yourself before you talk about shit you don't know.

  • @crassisdead I guess the honest answer would be that they hate america, and they don't mind americans :p

  • Thanks so much for uploading this album! Brings back so many memories. Been listening to this, (old) Against Me! and Dropdead all day in honor of the 4th. Who's gonna kick it old school and have a flagburning party tonight?

  • i dont even know. these guys are dope as fuck maaaaaaaaaaaaan!

  • even the fucking nazi goverment

  • @rob121000 i thought the whole jew thing was a tad excessive but besides that they seemed to have their stuff in order

  • I actually quite like the government, literally all of them.

  • @toadlicker1 You like dictators?

  • your all stupid... showdown is the name of the song.. two seperate singers each singing obviously something that was written by themselves... by the way i like the "emo" part better.. haha its funny how emo has evolved into anyone who can attach love to lyrics gaaaay.

  • Propagandhi isnt soft emo shit! Emo is just a fashion fad with no real relevance to life. This band is punk, punk is defiance, anachy, anti-goverment, but your probably to busy buying into the emo fad to truly pay attention or understand the lyrics!! SCREW EMO! PUNK isnt what you wear, or how many girly ass tight pant wearing friends you have its a way of life, being and understanding that all you emo freaks will never grasp! Its not about being alike its about being yourself!!

  • @gunnels424 word

  • first time you have kissed <3

  • John K. Samson's part in this song is awful. why did they even let him sing a corny ass song about girls on their album?

  • @jrhcp31 What?

  • @jrhcp31 are you kdding, his part in the song is awesome!

  • @jrhcp31 i had to login just to address this, possibly my favorite song on the cd... and they way they use greenest eyes = those who see thru the lies in the end. its its a very well written song, with a good change of pace... and im not one for any soft emo shit at all i dunno?

  • this song speaks the truth.

  • is it just me or is this the singer from the Weakerthans?

  • @hissybitch

    of course

  • @hissybitch Yeah, it's John K. Samson. He played bass and sang sometimes for Propagandhi. He left in 1996 to form The Weakerthans.

  • @hissybitch yes

  • @bloodbought09 so i guess u fap with ur right hand?

  • @bloodbought09 man you're gonna be pissed off when you die and realise that there isn't heaven. Well, you won't cos dead people can't be pissed off, but you gt the idea.

  • @bloodbought09 you good sir are retarded.

  • My mum was gonna pay someone to take my bed apart safely and correctly, instead i put this on and went fucking nuts with a big hammer!! result...

  • @bloodbought09-If Jesus heard what you say, he would cry, because I'm sorry, but Jesus did not talk about killing all His enemies like you do. YOU will condemn? Sorry, but your just a fucking human being, get over it, your not God.

  • haha dont put your christian nonsense on this page .... listen to the song comment on how awesome it is and think about how dumb your ass sounds talking about magical sky gods defeating imaginary enimies.

  • @bloodbought09 ok dude, that skared the shit out of me... are you sick in the head??? or are you just another brainwashed fucking catholic?

  • @bloodbought09

    beware the blue wire

  • Funny how you idiots are standing up for your countries and governments when this song is about saying fuck you to the governments. Attacking the American government and saying yours is so much better.....I thought punk was about anti-government. I guess you are more into the clothing or something....r tards.

  • @watchthemnow

    Believe it or not punk didn't start off anti-government.

  • @watchthemnow I think Punk is more against government ABUSE! read an anarchistic book!

  • @watchthemnow punk isnt really anti government, most people involved in the punk business are usually liberals, propagandhi are anarchist socialists

  • @watchthemnow I totally disagree. I am an American, I am proud to be an American, I am just totally ashamed of my government, and I would love to see a total reform. I'm not an Anarchist, because I personally believe Anarchy doesn't work, even in theory. That's just my thoughts, though.

  • @watchthemnow fuck anti-government thats a stupid idea theres to many people for anarachy have fun getting mugged and raped and murderered fuckin assholes

  • @watchthemnow YES! IM FUCKING WITH YOU, FUCK SUITS, FUCK LAWERS, FUCK GOVERNMENT!

  • @watchthemnow the government is full of selfish corrupt assholes that want things to be "right" 

  • @watchthemnow cannot agree more dude.. FUCK NATIONALISM, PATRIOTISM AND CAPITALIST GLOBALIZATION! UP FOR WORKING CLASS INTERNATIONALISM AND WORLDWIDE SOCIAL REVOLUTION!

  • no one knows what punk is now, its about being about expressing your true thoughts and beliefs and not following shit because your best friend its being cool. u are cool u make cool u think u make u do , just be fucking nice ok......

  • @germaphobewombat

    Finally, fucking someone knows what they're talking about. Jesus fuck.

  • @germaphobewombat Punk is about tearing shit up, and tearing shit down. Expression is fine, but expression is found in all things. Fucking KKK bitches are just expressing themselves, and they're not punk at all. Punk is not passive, punk is not gentle conversation. Punk is a fucking fist in your god damn face, not an informative flier thrown casually on the street.

  • @germaphobewombat you forgot to mention how every douche bag who owns a skatebord thinks theyre punk -.- its pathetic

  • @germaphobewombat you all suck nadz

  • @germaphobewombat you're a little too worried what other people think, do your thing, u don't have to prove anything to the youtube masses. Looks like you're trying to preserve an "image" of punk, but that's exactly the opposite of what it is.  Do your thing, have fun, and quit giving such a f*** what other people call it or think it is or how "cool" they are, who cares?

  • best riff ever!

  • good song!! hail satan

  • This song makes me happy, which is ironic because this is a kind of angry song.

  • @crassisdead Isn't that the joy of punk?

  • Comment removed

  • I never have and never will pledge allegiance.

  • blah blah blah yankee

  • prophint , i'm sure your mom is a lovely lady so relax. but,, you are a little bitch snivler. just because your only interaction with other humans is through your computer is not our fault. take that crowbar and use it on yourself.

  • thank you, and i hate youtube, but somehow keep coming back to this virgin-box for reasons unknown, and i have used that crowbar on myself, and it hurts.

  • "girls with the greeenest eeeyes" propaghandi rather cushty

  • Enjoy the tune and shut up every once in a while. People that were listening to punk rock when this tune was released DO know more about this music than you do. And you could school all of us on Avril and whatever else is popular in the mall this week.

  • pledge allegiance?

    arent they canadians?!

  • Who says you have to be American to be anti-American lol.

  • because in this album they always talked about 'down with america' and 'fuck america's government'

    but how could they speak on it if they never lived in America? The only time they were in America was when they toured there ! thats it.

    And even to this day their still not in America they're somewhere up in canada

    but overall this band kicks ass and their songs have meaning

  • Yeah, dude Canadians tend to live in Canada, weird right?

    They don't like American policies so they have plenty to write about.

  • But ur missing the point dumb bitch

    they never lived here in america in the first place so how would they know , right? exactly

    idk why they jus dont aim their songs at Canada something they would know about

  • Lol, I'm guessing you're about 14 or 15 just by how inherently ignorant you are.

    By the way, it's kind of funny that you call me dumb and yet have so many spelling and grammar issues.

    Fuck off dumbass and welcome to punk rock. Typical American...*sighs* :(

    Eat shit and die!!!!!!!

  • welcome to punk rock? grammer issues? Typical american?

    1 . stfu u dont know shit about punk nor politics

    2. this is not an english class and wat kinda punk cares about grammer? espicially on the e-net! lol good comeback bitch

    3. u probaly dont know shit about america bitch

  • oh, thanks so much for criticizing america! like NO ONE ELSE HAS DONE THAT BEFORE!!! You know what, if your so 'punk*' THAN GO OUTSIDE INSTEAD OF ARGUING ON THE INTERNET LIKE A FUCKING DOUCHEBAG!!! I think you crave to be considered 'punk' so bad, you'll spend hours arguing on the internet just to get any recognition! Your life is pointless.

    *I have to say this, if you bitch at me for liking the sex pistols because they turn punk into a fashion, than how about being a punk instead BEING "PUNK"

  • You dont have to live somewhere in order to recognize thats its a shit place to live, being governed by a bunch of fascist war mongers.

  • we're trying to get them out (moving them to canada), its just, since Dubya, our border patrol hasnt been so great. And stop talking like america is the worst place to be, its a hell of a lot better than africa, or afghanistan, or india, or cuba, or etc.

  • I dont even want to dignify this with a response.

  • Holy shit, calm down.

  • the second i FUCKING CALM DOWN is the second one of you assholes makes another crack at my mom or some shit, then i fucking lose it and bash my old elementary school teachers head in with A FUCKING CROWBAR!!! if those bleeding assholes would leave me alone for liking a certain band, than maybe that wouldnt be the end result of my calming down!

  • Well you don't have to be angry all the fucking time.

  • are you sure? i wasnt angry when i said i kinda like the offspring and i like the sex pistols, and look where the fuck that got me!!! in an argument with a probably fat and pathetic balding old man who still lives with his mom(or at least her ashes) about whos a sellout and who isnt!!! we're all sellouts and whores, so i just dont give a shit!!!

  • Then stop commenting.

    Look where that got you.

    Your not obliged to reply, you know.

    Makes YouTube comments easier to read rather than to reply to every single statement that IYO is wrong.

  • the album does not mention america anywhere, that I've noticed, their social commentaries could be directed at canada as well as the states.

  • has canada even been involved in a war? look at the lyrics to stick that fucking flag up your goddamn ass, boy scouts shouting WAR, does canada have boy scouts? god i hope not! also, is it illegal to desecrate the flag in canada? it is here.

  • yep were in a war right now..lol... and of course we have boy scouts, whats your point? this is nonsense... ohh yeah, its not illegal to desecrate the american flag here. we do it at our leisure

  • dammit! i hate boy scouts, and wanted to move to canada. but i mean the canadian flag not the american fag...i mean flag. and i've heard of wars in every country except canada and france.

  • you asked if we were ever involved in any wars, not if there had been any in our territory..anyway its a yes to both..i mean im no historian but the war of 1812 had battles fought on canadian soil... and please stay where you are we have enough american fags here... i mean flags...

  • fuck! they didnt teach us that in school! in fact, half of the 'canada' jokes are about wars and shit. You might of had many more american fags/flags if that redneck bastard or anyone like him was put in office. but i recently looked up canadian wars, and thanks. thank you very much. we still think its funny to call you names while we drive along in our SUV eating burger king and wishing we could still touch the steering wheel, but still, thanks.

  • and we still think your a bunch of ignorant brash pompous morons... and you comments on this video justify those feelings completely.

  • Prophint, I don't know if any of you uneducated American hicks know history, but I don't know if you can recall when we burned down your fuckin' White House. I'm sure you so called "Land of the Free" hypocrites used slaves to rebuild it too.

  • @HANK0000 no we dont. And stop talking to me like i actually enjoy this fuckin country. In fact, we are so HORRIBLY undereducated in this country, and i care about our history SO little, until right now i wasnt even aware the white house burned down. I go to school in the south, so as far as i was taught, there were no slaves. They were just friends helping us. Fuck this country, and fuck all of you! i dont even know why a care anymore.

  • @Prophint these were serious questions, and since you couldnt hear the tone of my voice over internet comments, i assume you thought i was trying to insult your lame-ass, marrying-for-the health care, polar bear-hunting country. HA! i hope we can put this whole thing behind us, ya fuckin kanucks.

  • @prophint

    would you like to purchase a parakeet? If you would like I can arm it with rockets and shit.

  • Those who see through the lies are quickly gagged and bound.

    Ambition realized, TEAR THE WHOLE FUCKING THING DOWN!

  • SKA SUCKS!!!

  • you know what's fun? going to hockey games, and ignoring the the national anthem. when everyone stands, stay seated and try to get at least 3 beers down before the songs over. people can get so pissy about little things like that haha

  • LOVE THAT DAMMMMMN CD!!!

    This CD influenced my youth! LOL

  • Comment removed

  • Propaghandi is cool as fuck...

  • 0mgzzzz gr33n daiiii r00l

  • I like Anti-Flag, The Rabble, The Unseen, Rise Against and some unsigned/indie punk bands. Would I like Propaghandi and which albums should I start with?
