    i'm looking for good *modern* anti-authoritarian, pro labor music.

    (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 some favorites from the last decade or two: Billy Bragg, Midnight Oil, Trotsky Icepick, Emmett Doyle, and the Dropkick Murphys.

          @DeliaChristina Ska-P from Spain have been at it for almost 30 years. In many concerts they invite onto the stage the striking labor union of some cause near the venue.

              @DeliaChristina Most of Woody Guthrie are classics of this genre, for an excellent cover Dolly Parton sang his "Deportee" amazingly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDfqXkYWzZM

                This particular Nocturnal Emissions album:
                https://www.discogs.com/master/26626-Nocturnal-Emissions-Songs-Of-Love-And-Revolution

                Which is unlike most of their other albums.

                            @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:

                              @anne @DeliaChristina To make this more specific, "The Red Album" (both volumes) are probably worth looking into:

                                      @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:"

                                        i'm looking for good *modern* anti-authoritarian, pro labor music.

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

                                        any recs?

                                        @DeliaChristina I think Asian Dub Foundation might fit.

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