If you know any other protest/worker music type stuff similar to this I'm curious.

So, when I was looking for stuff like that, what I found really useful was looking for people who did covers of Which Side Are You On, John Brown's Body, The Internationale, and Bella Ciao.

That being said, here's a list of based artists, or artists who have based shit. Lot of it's gonna be rap or rock.

  • Pete Seeger
  • Utah Phillips
  • The Nightwatchman - Tom Morello
  • Chumbawumba (On top of just being awesome they have an entire album of old ass English Rebel Songs. Fire.)
  • Dead Pioneers
  • Dead Prez
  • The Coup (Anything Boots Riley does is Fire)
  • Street Sweeper Social Club (Boots Riley and Tom Morello!)
  • Rebel Diaz
  • Dog Park Dissidents
  • Saul Williams
  • Marc Ribot (Check out his songs of resistance album)
  • Bambu
  • Billy Woods
  • Brother Ali
  • Lowkey
  • Modena City Ramblers
  • David Rovics
  • Carsie Blanton

I thnk I'm tapped out for now. As we got towards the bottom of the list I'm less familiar but they've got some decent songs.

edit: OH!!!

idk if I'd put Springsteen on the list on his own nowadays, but he does have The Ghost of Tom Joad which is just chefs-kiss. Here he is doing it with Tom Morello https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9f-F1CAB24 I could listen to this on repeat for hours.... I have.

I skimmed a bit and dig it so far. No apologies needed for genre btw. I'm a metal head by heart but I'm good with all sort of music lol.

[-] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago

Word. Wasn't sure if you were looking specifically for the folk music.

[-] roux@hexbear.net 3 points 1 day ago

In all honesty, I'm still trying to fill the void left after the lead guy in Anti-flag turned out to be a sexual predator. They were my go-to "rebel lefty" music. But I haven't found much since except maybe that folk guy that sounds a bit like Bob Dylan from TikTok.

hahaha

For Dog Park Dissidents I recommend Queer as in Fuck You, Rainbow Drones, Pronouns, and Rupaul's Frack Race.

For Dead Pioneers: Bad Indian, This is not a political song, No oNe Owns anything, and Doom Indian.

It's all great though.
