No Beyonce or any bullshit like that- extreme views only please.

being extreme on either side is ridiculous. Good album though

this album is neofolk but it's inspired by the spanish anarchists

I hate learning that a band I like have ideals completely opposed to my own. I guess it doesn't really matter so much, as long as it's not being rammed up my ass every time I start the album.

It's how I can listen to old Burzum, for example, but this album by The Knife just makes me not like them.

Anal Cunt
Skrewdriver
Vaginal Jesus

>It's how I can listen to old Burzum, for example, but this album by The Knife just makes me not like them.

OP here- Why? Is it because you agree with the politics of Burzum or you feel the message is less forced? I feel like The Knife has always been that way, it's just a lot more front & center on STH. Either way, not to talk politics too much but I'm simply looking for recs because I've been reading some feminist & marxist lit lately. Not necessarily because I agree or disagree with it, just to at least expose myself to it. It's been fun to supplement this with artists that are explicitly influenced by this stuff (e.g. The Knife, Stereolab).

WOAH dude! Totally triggered me! Nice one Sup Forumsro >:-D

...

You should read 'Who Stole Feminism'. It's quite interesting. Written by a feminist who's been around much longer than millennial feminists and she brings up a lot of interesting points. Really made me question the current state of western feminism desu

isn't there some nu metal album by some swedish anarchists?

>bullshit like that
You already post it, idiot.

>the knife
>far-left political stance
are you swedish? because if you are you have most of the progg movement to listen to. well, of course you can listen to them if you aren't, but I assume you'd want to understand the lyrics

A lot of stuff on the label that Alec Empire (of Atari Teenage Riot) started, called Digital Hardcore Recordings, has a pretty far-left message behind it. Apparently a lot of those guys started their music projects as a response/backlash to the emerging skinhead/neonazi presence in techno music back in the early 90s.

Remember that Karin has a husband and children, taking his last name.

She made songs like this

youtube.com/watch?v=r2CpcLvc90M

Her brother is the actual feminist and lives through his fantasies through his sister

it was a terrible album

I guess tainting it with infantile politics was symptomatic of them losing their touch

Thanks for the rec- I'll check it out. Right now I'm reading The Second Sex and I'm about halfway through it. Really liking it so far, came in not sure what to expect. Definitely not modern sjw tumbler feminism. She has a very detached writing style and explains everything without being preachy & is split up into various topics (biological, myths, lit criticism, lived experience, etc.). Would recommend.

Cool, thanks. Only Alec Empire album I've heard is Low On Ice but it's dope.

American. Google's not helping me out. Want to point me towards an album to check out?

I knew this thread would attract butthurt 'anti-SJWs' or whatever. Keep it coming, fellas.

>Her brother is the actual feminist and lives through his fantasies through his sister

Yeah, I know. He's the one who introduced her to Judith Butler, Michel Foucault, etc. Was kind of surprised to figure that out as well, although it doesn't really make a difference.

Yo (DHR guy) actually let me upload a related album called Female EQ by Bomb 20 for you. It's kind of hard to find a download for since it was only an obscure cassette a couple decades ago. No/not much explicit "leftist" theme to it, as far as I recall, but it's easily one of the best/my favorite DHR-related releases.

>American. Google's not helping me out.

Pic related (Blå Tåget - Brustna hjärtans hotell) is one of my favourite albums of all time and has a lot of socialist lyrics. As for feminism there was a group called Röda Bönor who had nice harmonies.

Underrated as hell post

being centrist is literally the most cucked position going

if you are a centrist you obviously think the world is peachy

There's nothing wrong with being a centrist because nowhere in the world is anything moderate.

I've only listened to three of rheir albums in full but I still don't see where Stereolab's socialist influence is present. Someone give me a heads up?

>optimist
>your life sucks

I'm pretty hard leftist, but you make centrism pretty appealing m8

>centrist
speaking of swedish 70s and the far left...

Cheers!

Ah, yeah. I used to listen to Crass back in high school. Totally forgot about them, thanks.

Will check out.

It was just one of them. The rest varied wildly.

It was as socialist as Can was communist, anarchist, or nihilist.

65% of all punk albums.

At this point more like 45%.

Thank you!

It's the lyrics. For example-

genius.com/Stereolab-jenny-ondioline-lyrics

The bandmates have stated that they are not marxist but the themes definitely come through pretty often in the lyrics.

Which album? I would say there's pretty political lyrics on many of their albums.

Crass?
Team Dresch?
THE DICKS??

By one of them, I meant one member, Sadier. Gane sympathized but kept his distance, the rest didn't care.

Oh, gotcha. Yes, this is true.

the future of war if you want harsh techno noise

I wouldn't recommend anything by Christina Hoff Sommers. She's bought out by the American Enterprise Institute.

it's called digital hardcore

christina hoff summers is a piece of shit that gamergators use to legitimize their insipid opinions

Varg makes an absolute point not to mix his politics with his music, and I respect him for that. He could easily use it as a soapbox for his views. Which is why I don't like the dayglow Knife album. Silent Shout was their creepy and dark pinnacle - with no politics. It just rubs me the wrong way when musicians do that.

Even shit like Jesus' Tod shows great sympathy toward the central figure of a religion he treats with extreme disdain.

Oh, hadn't heard of her. Thanks for the heads up.

>Varg makes an absolute point not to mix his politics with his music

Not sure about that but Burzum is great either way.

not a very good album tho

also everything else by her

Who here is old enough to remember when "far left" stood for anti-war and not just transgender/feminism/identity politics

Disagree. This album's a lot of fun desu

it depends on where you live, where i live far left is believing that journalists shouldn't go to prison for what they write and people shouldn't be killed if the switch religions. feminism and gender identity don't even come into the mix

Full of Fire still gets me hype.

What's going on in that song sonically? Synth arpeggios or w/e? I can't explain sound.

>Liberals giving me a nerve itch
What did she mean by this?

Run the Jewels taught me how to be a femnist

>Remember that Karin has a husband and children, taking his last name.

Surely she can't be a feminist then. Well deduced user. Great work!

This is an Italian indie-pop/electronic album which is hyper left-wing. Great stuff.

I take it from the fact that you keep making this thread that you haven't found what you're looking for. I'm pretty oblivious to political things in music so to me it's not the easiest way to sort artists but this album is pretty clear youtube.com/watch?v=cMjo9wI3iiM

definitely worth checking out. Also I think shaking the habitual is the knife's best record despite not being into the message.

I didn't like this album, too abstract for me, I wosh they come up with more Silent Shout style

I've never made this thread before.

Sweet, thank you.

Full of Fire is so fucking good. No idea what's going on but it's nuts.

From genius, two definitions-

1. Just to clarify, the liberals mentioned here is most likely not the American left, but rather the Swedish Folkpartiet, which rather could be classified as a conservative libertarian party. This is also foreshadowed in the video which shows Karin and Olof paying a person to clean their home while they’re away – a nowadays common thing in Sweden since a law called RUT-deduction came into motion, which allows rich people to get a hefty tax deduction on maid/house cleaning services.

2. On the contrary, the ‘liberals’ here probably quite precisely refers to mainstream white progressive sort of Left-Liberals. From the point of radical Leftist/anti-capitalist orientations (especially including those of the philosophers the duo have cited, i.e. Michel Foucault and Judith Butler, who simultaneously indentify(ied) as radical Leftists and vehement anti-liberals) liberals are as complicit in propagating neoliberal capitalism and global imperialism as right wing fundamentalists themselves, under the guise of political correctness and social justice warriorism that obscures the structural causes of postmodernity’s problems contrary to Marxist thought.

Both seem plausible enough, who knows?

Honestly can't tell if this song is pro-left or the other way around.
Alost the cover looks like a crying feminist, and the last lines "Let’s talk about gender, baby
Let’s talk about you and me" sound like they're not from the prespective of the singer to me for some reason.

>Swedish Folkpartiet, which rather could be classified as a conservative libertarian party
>Folkpartiet
>conservative libertarian
ehm what

>Honestly can't tell if this song is pro-left or the other way around.

They're definitely not right wing. If it is 'anti-left', then it's only to the extent that they are criticizing mainstream moderate leftists (like the second definition from Genius says).

>and the last lines

I love that part, I think it's just supposed to be a playful subversion of the Salt-N-Pepa song. They said in interview that they were influenced by Judith Butler, a philosopher who argues that gender is non-essential and performative. Butler said "We are always in drag" and Karin quoted her on this in an interview. Her most well known book is called "Gender Trouble".

tl;dr I feel like those lines are sincerely meant.

This shit is more fun than a Zizek conference
