10 MORE Songs That Are Appropriate for the Protests Going On in Wisconsin
Despite the virtual media blackout, the protests continue. Here are 10 songs that I didn’t include on last week’s list. Thanks to Jim McCabe and Matt Lee for suggesting a few of these in last week’s comments. And I know that John Lennon originally did “Working Class Hero” and that “Resist Control” was originally done by Lifesblood, but I prefer the Marianne Faithfull and Born Against versions. If I had room for an 11th track, I’d include Discharge’s “Protest and Survive”.
D.O.A. – “General Strike”
Rancid – “Union Blood”
Chelsea – “Right to Work”
Public Enemy – “Fight the Power”
Marianne Faithfull – “Working Class Hero”
The Dils – “I Hate the Rich”
Born Against – “Resist Control”
The Clash – “Clampdown”
The Dears – “Summer of Protest”
Ignition – “Anger Means”
