Record (Re)Collection: David Guillas Of Propagandhi On Nomeansno’s “0+2=1″
Posted on February 25th, 2009 by Matthew
I’m very excited for this next chapter of the Record (Re)Collection. David “Space Beaver” Guillas, guitarist for Propagandhi, talks about Nomeansno’s 0+2=1 a. Propagandhi’s new record Supporting Caste hits the stores on March 10th. Any self-respecting punk rocker already has the date marked down, I’m sure. Enjoy the read.
I was born in 1979, which means I was a rambunctious pre-pube teenager when all those melodic “punk” bands exploded out of California in the early-to-mid ’90s. To my puny, undeveloped brain these bands were the shit–I could not get enough. But as a year or two passed I started to feel like that scene was getting stale. I yearned for music from bands that progressed–that didn’t stagnate in order to accommodate a temporary craze fueled by dollar bills. Just when it seemed that punk music had nothing left to offer, a friend introduced me to Nomeansno–more specifically to their album from 1991 0+2=1. The fire was rekindled.
