Stuff like Paul Robeson, Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, etc. John Browns Body is obviously gold but what are some of your favorites? <:

    Woody Guthrie is obviously a favorite, the New Lost City Ramblers did at least a few union songs, like "Join the C.I.O." If you've never gotten into folk punk, which isn't Old Time music at all but is incredibly anti establishment in a fun way.

        Early against me is great, reinventing axl rose is 10/10. Early ajj is also incredible, people who can eat people is a perfect album start to finish

        I'd recommend "Urine Speaks Louder than Words" by the Wingnut Dishwashers Union as a starting point. It's uh, fucking great.

          And so you're asking me, who does the dishes after the revolution?

          Well, I do my own dishes now, I'll do our own dishes then

          You know it's always the ones who don't who ask that fucking question
