MP3 The Visitations - Propaganda
11 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Punk, ROCK: Modern Rock
Details:
"Osama & Your SUV" and the cheery "Talkin'' Hate Radio Blues" alone prove that pop and politics can be mixed...
Indieville
Fight the power and support The Visitations. Protest rock rules - especially when it''s this well done...

I''ve been waiting patiently for an album like this to come stumbling across my reviewing table for some time now and wondering why it has not thus far...

An immediate reference point to ''Propaganda'' would be what the Violent Femmes (see: Euthanize Yourself, Milk the Bull) at their most memorable (circa "Blister in the Sun", 1983) would sound like mildly Dead Kennedy-pissed off 20 years later...
Slightly Confusing To A Stranger
Underneath the subject matter (which is handled with humor and insight), there is musicality and a hip beat...

Jersey Beat
Wrathgabar & Co. (Of Montreal''s Jason NeSmith and Derek Almstead) offer comfortably produced popcraft. "Euthanize Yourself" packs a healthcare-system-slamming punch between jangly guitars and bluegrass-inflected bass lines, while "Television"''s spring reverb and driving rhythms chug merrily along. "The Good News" and "Be Not Afraid", the final two tracks, probably wouldn''t be insulted if you called them ballads...
