I’ll start. System of a Down.
Recently it seems like some people are JUST NOW realizing that Bring me the horizon is not Christian friendly and I wonder how many other artists can we put into the bag of “Wait, they were political this whole time?”
This thread has been reported to us. I’ve temporarily made the decision to keep it (other mods; feel free to override). While the question could have been phrased a hell of a lot better (“what are your favourite bands that people don’t get the real meaning of?”), its a valid question and doesn’t quite fall into the “offensive” rule.
Community: please stay civil. The fact that a song can be political does not mean it is worth debating if it’s politics are correct. If discussion significantly devolves into personal attacks, bans will be issued regardless of partisanship.
Off topic: I love how clear you are in your articulation. I wish to develop this skill some day . If you don’t mind me asking, how would one develop such a skill?
I must confess that you’re the first person to tell that to me — English class was always a disaster! The only thing I can point to is practice: I have a blog here that I write at regularly. The other component might be luck? They say that a broken clock is right twice a day and I’m inclined to agree.
In any case, thank you!
Aww yall are cute :) eloquence is a skill one must practice regularly. I agree you are quite good at typing out shit
Gotta love how so many MAGAites are bopping to Rage Against the Machine, without realizing that they themselves are part of the most vile and extreme version of the machine. They just latched on to the “fuck you, I won’t do what you tell me” from “Killing in the Name” without that single grain of self awareness necessary to connect the only two dots there are.
He’s the one who likes all our pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he knows not what it means
And I say ‘yeah’Unrelated to this thread, but that chorus is among my favorite duets. Dave and Kurts voices mesh so incredibly well.
And I do like shooting guns… wait…
That’s their deluded way of stealing the song. Real eyes realize real lies

Chumbawamba! (Am I doing this right?)
“Everybody” knows that song, and thinks of it as a harmless party song. “Nobody” has heard their earlier stuff which alternates between punk and anarchism-pop.
If I remember correctly, they emerged from the blue collar punk scene, and draws a lot of their political views from there.
Nothing special to see or hear in any of the following: their earlier stuff, their later stuff, tracks 2–12 on the same album, the 10,000 word essay in the liner notes, their followup single, etc.
The day the Nazi died is a great song
WHY. DO. THEY ALWAYS SEND THE POOR. (Repeat a dozen or so times)
Sorry but no way they are non political. That’s just one example from a more well known song. Haven’t they publicly spoken on the Armenian genocide, too? If you need to separate your art from your politics, perhaps you should re review your politics. It’s inherent in most aspects of life.
As a country fan you don’t really expect much from modern country singers so sturgill Simpson might be a good pick.
I remember a while back he was snubbed from the CMAs so he busked outside of the event and called trump a “fascist fucking pig” while taking donations for the ACLU.
You g… got a pen? Write this down:
Jazz for appreciating pro instrumentalists
EDM for work out
Classical for relaxing, getting job done
Wait. You said “non political music” (as if that were a thing) and then you say SoaD???! Please read their lyrics. They are full of politics. From war protests to the Armenian genocide to anti-science and pseudo-science weirdness.
Music is always political.
Sheb Wooley - The Purple People Eater
non political
SOAD
if anything this is a good troll 🤣 but ill bite:
soad is one of the bands you ask for.
Wait a minute, you’re telling me you listen and think about things? I bet you even wear glasses. Someone needs a bit more Pol Pot in their lives. /s
For those who haven’t seen it, I recommend the movie The Killing Fields. If you prefer music, listen to “Holiday in Cambodia”. Same topic in both pieces of media.
Ever listen to the (Tony Hawk Pro Skater OST) song Police Truck by the Dead Kennedys? Nice lil diddy about police brutality.
And every 2pac song was talking about what we would consider “modern issues” 35 years ago. But no, all this “woke” stuff just showed up yesterday…
Hahaha this has to be bait
Green Day for sure. Although I did recently see a conservative post online, “when did Green Day start singing about politics,” so maybe they’ve gotten political…
