Over the years, more or less radical comrades have made music and some of it has gained at least some popularity.
The post war period until about the 60s had folk-influenced singer-songwriters of various kinds like say Hannes Wader, Ewan MacColl, il Canzoniere delle Lame, etc.
The 70s had brought new genres to the forefront, with punk, reggae, ska, etc.
The early 80s were a time of a bunch of English new wave Bands singing about the horrors of contemporary capitalism and getting really popular commercially
The 90s still had some leftist music, say the Coup, Manu Chao, Chumbawamba, etc.
But what then? Of course, the quantity decreased because of what happened in 1989-1991, but what's even around?
A bunch of punk, rap and obscure metal, I suppose?
I'd love to see what recommendations you have, comrades.
My two favorite deathmetal (deathcore) bands are leftoids.
Cattle Decapitation are a bunch of vegitarians who's musical themes revolve around the destruction of the environment and animal abuse.
And my other fav, fit for an autopsy, have an alarming amount of Marxist themes in their music. I have to get ready for work so I can link stuff right now but I will share some on a bit.
Cattle decapitation are sick, seen them live 3 times. They're certainly a bit more on the kill all humans side of anticapitalist music but yes if you want songs about doing to humans what they do to animals this is good shit
