        I think for a couple of years in my late teens/early 20s when I cared more about tone than content for some dumb reason. In my defense if there's any ideology that gets pushed to you in university is that the worst thing you can do is ever act "unprofessional".

          that makes a lot of sense. I was thinking more of "uncool" embarrassment, but conservative cultural pressure is obviously a lot more pervasive

      Dude Toxicity is actually amazing, I didn't even listen to it when I was younger but I do now. SOAD is a very good band. RATM is pretty good too, albeit not always.

        They each have at least member with decent politics too.

        Morello and Serj Tankian of System of a Down are the co-founders of Axis of Justice, a political group whose declared purpose is "to bring together musicians, fans of music, and grassroots political organizations to fight for social justice together." They "aim to build a bridge between fans of music around the world and local political organizations to effectively organize around issues of peace, human rights, and economic justice."[77] The group has worked for such causes as immigrant rights and death-penalty abolition. Its recommended book list includes such authors as Karl Marx, Che Guevara, George Orwell, Noam Chomsky, Mumia Abu-Jamal and Grant Morrison.[78]
