SLUTET wasn’t an easy band for me. I must say I wasn’t taken in by their previous record and I didn’t give it a second chance. So I was a bit sceptical when I received this one from Phobia Records to review. And it came again. I wasn’t taken in. But this time I did give it a few more...
Book review: The Scene That Would Not Die: Twenty Years of Post-Millennial Punk In The UK by Ian Glasper
Ian Glasper delivers again. Bass player for numerous hardcore punk bands, contributor to many fanzines and magazines and a book writer. But then, on second thoughts, you can’t just call him a writer. Having written 6 books on hardcore punk and thrash metal, he has become a full-time punk scene documentalist, or docu-mentalist as he likes to call himself. And...
Sanctus Propaganda enter a Collective phase to deliver more news, reviews, columns and articles. And we are looking for you.
Yeah, truth is, when everyday life teamed up with label work takes over your writing for future generations, you end up with tons of important ideas to write about, hundreds of records to review, etc and the site is not as updated as we would like it to be. So we’re inviting people to contribute and become part of international...

PARASIT – Samhällets Paria LP
Third full length album from Sweden’s most exciting d-beat band formed in the new millenium, with members from DISKONTO, ASOCIAL or UNCURBED. I don’t know why they decided not to use their original logo featured on previous releases but this is what you sometimes get from Swedish bands – minimalism. You also find that feature on this record. Less means...
ID – Twoja Twarz LP
There are a few good reasons to review this record here, 27 years after its original release in 1993. Primarily because SANCTUS PROPAGANDA is read by people around the globe who value Polish 80’s/90’s hardcore punk a lot, and they do collect records from this period. And this very record was re-released the way it should have always been released...
SVAVELDIOXID/SKELETON – split 7”
Two d-beat guns share this 7”. SVAVELDIOXID from Sweden and SKELETON from Canada. Both bands deserve each other on the flipping side of the vinyl and both bands shoot 4 fast d-beat tracks. No prisoners taken, no questions asked, no breaks between the bullets. While SVAVELDIOXID represents a classic Swedish d-beat we are all used to, SKELETON play a rawer...

CURSED BLOOD – Taker of Life LP
Back to reviewing routine at the of the year and I kick off with an album that has great chances to end up in my personal TOP 3 of 2020 LPs. CURSED BLOOD are from Greece and they are a new creation although members have played in punk and metal bands, such as Dead Congregation, Burial Hordes, Sarabante, Vulnus, Nuclear...

Yet another release from us. A debut this time!
Busy time here at Sanctus Propaganda. We’ve been fighting covid reality and preparing new releases. Here is PROP 015, this time it’s a EP, a debut 7″ by ZERO AGAIN. Hailing from Bristol, UK, they are definitely no beginners to punk. Comprising members of Warwound, Regret, Bring To Ruin and Grand Collapse, ZERO AGAIN come up with something old, something...
PROP 013 – A new release from us!
We owe you a PROP 013 release info. This is WAR//PLAGUE – Into the Depths + Temperaments of War EP, two killer records on one CD. Released still in 2020. Already a classic and by some regarded as the best crust album in 2018/2019, “Into the Depths” is a thoroughly planned and cold-bloodedly executed crust thrash punk assault with gloomy...
