Chris Hannah & David Guillas from Propagandhi: The Sound and The Story (Short)

It was a punk rock Tuesday at Chicago's Bottom Lounge for FRET12! After interviewing Ryan from Off With Their Heads, FRET12 was able to meet up with the guitarists from Propagandhi who were headlining the show! Chris and David invited us into their dressing room backstage to answer a bunch of questions from fans regarding all things gear and guitar, as well as some other interesting ones! These Canadian punkers are experts at putting on a thrilling live show full of fierce guitar and raw energy. The four piece treated the sold out crowd to many mosh pits and stage dives. The newer material is demonstrating a heavier side of the band, which can even be heard in the delivery of the live vocals. Their latest release thru Epitaph records, entitled "Failed States" debuted at #1 on the Heatseekers charts and has followed with a supporting tour playing to energetic crowds across the country. You can hear brief snippets of the title track throughout the interview, as well as some other cuts (Things I Like and Unscripted Moment) from their newest major label release!
