Jesse Welles is a folk singer I found out about recently. Also liked Tom Morello's The Nightwatchman (also folk).

Well there's always the classics: Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Utah Phillips, Joe Glazer, Anne Feeney, Joe Hill renditions, Paul Robeson, etc.

Punk music generally has a socialist undertone, but I especially love Rise Against. Some other good bands are Dead Kennedys, NoFX, and Anti-Flag. They're also actively anti fascist community; Nazi punks fuck off

I really liked these songs:

Fever 333 - Do or Die

Keny Arkana - La Rage (A sham i don't speak frensh)

The Shizit - Soundtrack for the Revolution

The only artists I had heard of were Fever 333. Thanks for opening my eyes.

I hadn't heard of Immortal Technique, and I'm digging them. So thank you, too.

throw in some Propagandhi

Boikot, Manic Street Preachers, Billy Bragg, NOFX

The ones that spring to mind

I recently heard Sturgill Simpson rail against the patriarchy. Does that count? Kind of refreshing in the Country/ Americana genre.

Rage Against the Machine.

And in Dutch: Sophie Straat

[–] tenchiken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

Bruce Cockburn.

Notable songs: The Poet If I had a rocket launcher ... And they call it democracy

A lot of good ones already mentioned so some that haven't been yet:

  • Total Massacre

  • RedSka - They are Italian and have a great version of Bella Ciao
  • Poesie Zero - They are a French band
