Best social protest bands?

[Vienna]

Oh, you.

[K.S]

Green day!!!111! Yeah!!

[rhman95]

^^^ Hey guys. Music. Yeah?

[jrg]

Good point. But in my own little world, with the way I grew up, almost anything consisting of social commentary was inspiration for protest.

[serena.]

I think Midnight Oil were very good at promoting Aboriginal rights, about them losing their land and self respect. The lead singer is now a politician, go figure.

[popular!]

that's fair.

i came up the complete opposite way. always trying to maintain order and limiting the rocking of the boat. i guess that's why most protest songs rang hollow in my ears, but social commentary i've always enjoyed.

[In Search of The Truth]

What do AJB protest? Everything I've heard by them has pretty much been about everyday teen life.

Oh, and how about Bob Dylan!? Maybe not a band but he plays with one.

[Soo Sugar]

Do I know you?

[bluue(=]

Alright, I'll get on it.

I think another thing with Johnny Hobo is his amateurish lyrics kind of add a charm to the music. I remeraber the first time listening to him, it felt very nostalgic, reminding me of a lot of the punk/pop-punk I listened to when I was just getting into music.

[I want to answer]

^ I guess I kind of half heatedly through that one in there with no justification like I usually tend to do with my lists.
And after just listening to him after not doing so in a while I'm gonna throw in Wingnut Dishwashers Union.
