Here’s a whole album full, from around the same time - KMFDM - WWIII

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.

Nice song. But that’s from 2002, just like the other user which linked a 2006 song. They all seem to be before 2010.
Where did anti war music go from 2010 to 2020? Did being anti-war become unpopular or were they just less featured in our media? Or did people stop making anti war songs?

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.

The whole album Ashes of the Wake also about half of Rise Against’s discography.
