Man, I wish we could take credit for this one.  Canada’s Exclaim! magazine did an absolutely fantastic article on Propagandhi chronicling the evolution of the band in a year by year breakdown beginning with the group’s inception in 1986.  It’s got awesome insight in to all sorts of things you probably didn’t know much about including the break with John Samson (who went on to start The Weakerthans) and the fallout between the fellas and Fat Wreck Chords.  Tons of great quotes from the band (past and present members) as well as some really interesting quotes from Fat Mike.  Here’s one from him about Propagandhi’s decision to release their last album “Failed States” on Epitaph, as opposed to Fat or their own label G7:

“I advanced them $50,000 to start G7,” says Fat Mike. “I helped them start their own label and was very supportive of them doing their own label, and they stopped doing their own label. Now they’re on Epitaph. I don’t really see how Fat Wreck Chords went wrong, or how we wronged them.”

It’s long so you’ll need to dedicate some time to it but if you’re a Propagandhi fan I highly recommend reading the entire article here.
