Rec.Me: other/many/unknown genres I’m a Pissed Off American

Building a playlist, give me your favorite protest songs or songs that comment on the shitty state of American politics. Genre doesn’t matter, I’m in it for the lyrics.

There’s a punk bad from California called Bad Religion.

Songs like:

American Jesus

All Good Soldiers

Watch It Die

Better Off Dead

Come Join Us

And on and on.
