Humanifesto is a Canadian punk band from Montreal, Quebec. Formed in Summer 2004, the band quickly wrote and recorded their first album, A Declaration Of Intent with the help of The Sainte Catherines' Rich Bouthillier filling in on drums, and their guitarist Marc-Andre Beaudet behind the mixing console.
Over the next few years, the band would perform over 100 shows in the Eastern Canadian area, sharing the stage with notable acts including Propagandhi, Strike Anywhere, The Video Dead, Chixdiggit and Hostage Life.
In the summer of 2006, the band returned into the studio to record a new EP, entitled Don't Eat Meat. This project is in fact a tribute to NOFX's Fuck The Kids EP, performing the music arrangements and vocal melodies from the NOFX disc, but replacing the original lyrics with Humanifesto-style left-wing political ones. After shelving the project for a year while working on other projects, Fat Mike of NOFX authorized Humanifesto to release the project on 7" vinyl. This disc was issued in Spring 2008 by KOI Records in Texas.
Phil Campeau was formerly a member of Montreal punk band First Impression, Justin Santora's former recording project was called I Am The Cartographer, and Dan Audette plays guitar in Society’s Ills.
