    @DeliaChristina Countercurrent randomly did a few labor songs on their most recent album that are pretty good ("I Am the Fox" and "Six Workers"):

    @DeliaChristina Ooh, and how could we forget Grace Petrie! All of her stuff is great and fits the bill, but my personal favorite is "Fixer Upper:"

      (in other words, while the Wobblies are commendable, their hymns are not what I'm seeking right now.)

      any recs?
      (looking at you, the part of the fediverse with vinyl collections you haven't talked about in a while. now is your time to shine.)

      @DeliaChristina I think Asian Dub Foundation might fit.

      Here's one of their songs, Power to the Small Massive

            @DeliaChristina aaand (sorry for the string of replies, I'm going through my "Labor" playlist and finding so much good stuff I haven't heard in a while!) one of my favorite rappers, who used to the county commissioner of one of the counties near me and is a local DSA member LINQUA FRANQA has some great stuff! "Wurk" is probably my favorite:

              @DeliaChristina okay, okay, hopefully last one for a while (sorry not sorry!): a lot of TMBG probably fits the bill too!

                @silverwizard @DeliaChristina "Hold Fast, Hold the Line" by this same person won the Labor Notes song writing contest last year and is one of my favorites, though it's imitating traditional labor songs so may not be what you're looking for:
