political music video's

[Taxamo Welf]

i was just loling at some fucking gash NSBM video and and an ode to hitler by No Remorse and i tought - what do people who aren't nazis have to bring to the table of the political music video?

ORIGINAL VIDEO'S ONLY

no point in posting political footage that people have cut TO a song, only original video's as the artists released them. Also, don't just post them say why you have and give a bit of a description

Chemical Brothers - Out of Control

This video is fucking genius, i don't want to give too much away, but you must watch it through til the end. Its a fucking smart protrayal of whatjamacallit 'recapitualtion' or whatever - where the counterculture is repackaged and sold, and a blatant endorsement of 90's anticapitalism.


KMFDM - A Drug Against War
not particularly explicit for KMFDM but an incredible video encapsulating everything KMFDM hate about consumer society, right wing american conservatism (check the use of 1950's style characters) and just how angry they are in general

Here's a start

Rage Against The Machine. Nuff said.



Midnight Oil - The Dead Heart

 

[Taxamo Welf]

no sorry, sorry, no.

That is not 'enough said', you have to say what it is and why it's political/why you rate it.

Rammstein-Amerika

Crude anti-americansim at it's very best! Yes, not a lot there lyrically but it's rammstein, lyrics are spare and ambiguous. These ones certainly aren't tho e.g. "this is not a love song/i don't speak my mother tongue". The video is the important bit tho, a very clever satyrical concept as well as the depiction of a world ruled by american hegemony, not taking itself too seriously.

[Sadken]

Eminem - Mosh

 

[october_lost]

Die Totten Hosen - Pushed
Basically its riotporn, covering alot of colonial struggles.

I was looking at some No Remorse videos on youtube the other day, the ISD 'memorial' song ia fucking frighteningly bad. Even without the politics it's utter shite.....

 

[CRI]

The Metallica video includes scenes from the movie "Johnny Got His Gun" which is really chilling. The book gave me nightmares when I read it in school.


Nuclear Assault's "Critical Mass" takes the environmental angle . . .

 

[audiotech]

Audio.

 

[frogwoman]

erm i don't know but do a search for suicide commando - deliver us from evil. and one nation under god

so fucking, fucking true

 

[frogwoman]

jesus wept - palestine

 

[frogwoman]

a lot of suicide commando songs are very political tbh. it pisses me off when people say that industrial music is nazi music and obsessed with violence, some of it is no doubt but most of it is very very anti-war and anti-nazi

 

[GarfieldLeChat]

 

[GarfieldLeChat]

 

[frogwoman]

awesome

 

[GarfieldLeChat]

awesome

yeah it's great and sinead oconnor on backing vocals... too

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

The Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy - Television

They didn't always do it for me, tbh, but this song and video was probably the pick imo. It's got some good intercuts between the lyrics and the images and is certainly more progressive than most hip hop in terms of what he's saying.

 

[Donna Ferentes]

I like because it's camp

There are some duff politics in metal but Metallica are alright, they're not Slayer. They did have the anti-war Disposable Heroes and title track on the Master of Puppets album.
