Propagandhi - At Peace
Band: Propagandhi is a long-running Canadian punk rock band from Winnipeg, formed in 1986. Known for fiercely political, leftist, anti-capitalist, and anti-fascist lyrics, they blend fast hardcore punk with melodic elements and sharp wit. Still active and influential after nearly 40 years.
Song: Title track and lead single from their 2025 album At Peace (via Epitaph Records). A powerful, introspective punk anthem grappling with personal resilience, grief, existential dread, survival guilt, and defiant hope amid global chaos—ending with a Bruce Cockburn quote: “Gotta kick at the darkness until it bleeds daylight.”
Fun fact: Released in March 2025 amid turbulent world events, the song instantly became a rallying cry for fans, with comments calling it “musical medicine” and “exactly what we needed right now”—praised for its clean production, emotional depth, and stunning animated lyric video by Lucius Amberg.
