Each Propagandhi record requires a fair listen to be absorbed properly. The layers and complexity of the vocals and music slowly unfold and you are rewarded with a thought provoking, hard rocking gem of an album each time. <i>Failed States<\/i> is a more focused and concise (and full on HEAVY!) effort than their amazing Supporting Caste, glimpses of the &#8220;thrashyness&#8221; were seen on previous releases but Failed states shows these Winnipeggers at their most pissed and inspiring.
