You'd have to specifically avoid country music though, since that entire genre is captured by conservatives through some deliberate effort. Folk music is where you'd have to go if that's the style you're into
Okay can we talk about this though. I'm so mad. Like I spent the past week making a playlist full of folksy union songs from pre 1950 and I'm so mad about what country music is now opposed to Pete seeger was putting out. Idk if it counts as like. True country. But I'm still angy. 😾
There's a good :citations-needed: episode about this very subject. Some time in the 1960s conservative politicians deliberately started courting country musicians. "Country" doesn't even refer to a specific style of music anymore but rather anything with an accent and a weepy cloying patriotism. Like listen to any country station today and it's just pop. It'll even have trap beats sometimes.
There is such a thing as neo-nazi folk, though. I don't think it's very common, but it does exist.
I read a story in a music magazine about a somewhat famous neo-nazi who lived not far from me who did weird occult rituals in the woods, and who I believe was a member of the Order of the Nine Angles, an incredibly extreme group. Pretty scary stuff.
I'll see if I can find the link to the story
Edit: here you are. CW for sexual assault, racism, grave desecration, and occultism.

Metal subgenres also require some vigilance, cause theres a lot of ones infested with nazis and chuds.
:geordi-no: Nordic-model "Social-democracy" Black Metal
:geordi-yes: New Wave of Bolshevik Heavy Metal
Very much so with Nashville country but there are country artists outside of the Nashville mainstream who are decent folk

There are some counterexamples
One of the best performances I've ever seen. My favorite part is 3:42 when the drummer sends his cymbal flying.
