SCREAM - Banging the Drum (Dischord) 

That was Keya Chatterjee from the Free DC movement interviewed on Democracy Now this week. As DC has been taken over by the Federal guards, citizens come out at 8:00pm to bang pots and pans. 8:00pm represent the 8 Districts in DC as a show of solidarity against an occupying force. People power can bring down dictators. WWII fascism started out as patriotism in defense of a country and then a slowly narrowing insider group as the manufacturing of domestic enemies became weaponized to crush dissent. 

This episode was put together by Andre Zadorozny, Bee Traverse, Christian Overall, Rob Ferraz, and Stephen Perry. 

This is episode 1350 of EXD. On this edition :

• We talk with Sarde about the Filton 24, a group of young adults being incarcerated under a terrorism act. This incarceration has implications to personal freedom with regards to activism.

• We feature classics by Ripcord, United Mutation, and Fang

Armʼs Race features Ola and the expression of solidarity in Beeʼs opening set is because Ola is part of the Filton 24. The Filton 24 are a group of activists being incarcerated under a terrorism act in the UK. This application of the act has serious consequences for activism in a 2025 context of authoritarianism. Sarde has spoke with Ola and I asked Sarde to tell us about the Filton 24 situation. Hereʼs that conversation.

This Artificial Dissemination song summarizes our first feature on the music of Portland. Portland is under siege from federal agents with reports of kidnapping, tear gas and other methods of trying to make protestors disappear which would be heavily criticized coming from other countries. So we start out with a spotlight on music coming out of the PDX scene on the frontlines at the moment. We also have a celebration of Chi Pig's life. And we finish up with a new demo feature from Toronto - Miss Thing. You can download the show here.

ARTIFICIAL DISSEMINATION - F.S.U. (Seminal Recordz)

Portland - At the time of taping federal troops have moved into Portland and protests have escalated as this unwanted occupying force kidnaps protesters, attacks US citizens with tear gas, and the battle of the streets rages as part of Donald Trump’s political theatre to impress a re-election audience that he is the law and order candidate. In other countries when they make protesters disappear the government is characterized as an authoritarian police state. In honour of of the resistance movement standing up against police violence I put together a set of PDX punk.

Tribute to Chi Pig
I did an interview with Chi Pig from September 11th, 1987 which has been transcribed and posted up on the blog. On July 16th Ken Chinn passed away. I will forever know him as the singer with the huge leap, the colourful costumes, and prankster stage antics. To honour Chi Pig’s passing with thought we would put together a set of material by SNFU starting off with “She’s Not on the Menu”, one of the best known songs in punk addressing sexism.

SNFU - She's Not on the Menu (BYO)
SNFU - Visiting the Bad Again (Cargo)
SNFU - Time To Buy A Futon (Cargo)
SNFU - Costume Trunk (Epitaph)
SNFU - A Better Place (Epitaph)
SNFU - Bobbitt (Epitaph)
SNFU - Cockatoo Quill (Rake)
SNFU - Ashes (Cruzar Media)

"She's Not on the Menu" is one of the many anthems off of “...And No One Else Wanted To Play”. It was one of the first and best known songs addressing sexism. Up there with "Not Just Boys Fun" and put the listener in women’s shoes from an experiential standpoint. It was later re-recorded and they made a Dance Mix called “Dunce Mix” which they self-released as a single.

"Time to Buy a Futon" is one of the better known songs from "Better than a Stick in the Eye" (1988). The song was partially made more popular by it’s inclusion on the fifth Thrasher comp that came out a year earlier called “Born to Skate”. So the song had a pre-release. The song is a clever jab at consumerism penned in two minutes.

"Costume Trunk" off of "Something Green And Leafy This Way Comes" (1993) was about the trunk Chi used to do costume changes on stage. But the song was also a metaphor for his sexual orientation which he would become more comfortable with being out. So in that way the song was autobiographical.

The song "A Better Place" depicts an old women who’s life has run its course. A reminder that life is short. I am putting that up as a pick for "The One Voted Most Likely To Succeed" (1995).

"FYULABA" (1996), but I thought "Bobbitt" was a good choice because it showcased Chi's sense of humour which often focused on weird observations. This song features Simon Head on keyboards.

"Cockatoo Quill" was another song written in two minutes with a cockatoo quill feather duster bought at a dollar store.

Lots of the information about Chi Pig came from Chris Walters' book "What No One Wanted to Say". You can find a copy here.
