  The best thing about America is that the music always stays relevant.

  System Of A Down - B.Y.O.B.

  Wonder if we’re going to get any World War 3 bangers soon.

        Don’t worry, you can still have plausible deniability - listen to their song Kunst and you’ll see the Depeche Mode meaning has been co-opted and muddied by the band. You know, for fun!

      Were there any popular Afghanistan invasion songs? I recall many songs such as Fortunate Son for the Vietnam war but I can’t really recall popular 2010-2020 anti war music.

        Pretty much any punk song from 2001 onwards was anti-war on terror/Bush.

        I’d personally recommend the album Mobilize by Anti-Flag, but that’s just my nostalgia talking, fucking banger album though.

        From my recollection, Afghanistan wasn’t singled out in pop culture music; rather the entire “war on terror” was lumped together.

        Audioslave did some but they weren’t “mainstream” popular.

        This one is more about Bush and the lame response to the Katrina disaster but Tom Morello said it’s a “finger-pointing song” and includes lyrics about trading lives for oil.

        American Idiot by Green Day comes to mind.

    Kent State Massacre.

    Anti-Vietnam war rally at a university saw the national guard called in to stop it, and they ended up killing 4 people.
