P-KLANN GOLD LIVE REVIEW
There's a new groove in town as [PROPAGANDA KLANN] hits the airwaves and the WWW.
An exciting cooperative of highly talented musicians loosely associated into a catalystic ensemble.(see below)
[collective]: 1. formed by collection
2. relating to group of individuals taken together as a whole.
[klann]: 1. association of lineages which have certain interests in common, as organisation of marriage, land, common teritory, ceremony.....
The sound is a little bit Massive Attack, a little bit Beastie Boys, PROBOT even, and distinctly Australian.
Based in Melbourne the [PROPAGANDA KLANN] make their headquarters and their hits in Melbourne.

'.... a terrific live at the Wireless...' - Richard Kingsmill - JJJ

"Yet another new Australian outfit to watch out for, Progaganda Klann are possibly the first truly Australian sounding rap based outfit,melding a strong tradition of Aboriginal/Australian music with kicking rhythms, production know-how and political/social clout."
Propaganda Klann, "...a bunch of lads from Melbourne who are big on grooves and distinctly Australian themed raps. A combination of good time funk n roll and indigenous/political issues..."
'...stands out in its attack!..' - Timeoff
'.... Propaganda Klann have developed their own style over the last two years, and have consolidated a genuine Australian expression ...'
