Dunno who deserves credit for this, but a friend sent me a link to an anti-ice video on someone’s insta (Ice-T performing live with updated lyrics for his song “Cop Killer”). This was also posted there, so I’ll link to that page. No idea if that’s who made the image or if they borrowed it from somewhere else.
Hell, even old school country had a punk rock ethos. Listen to 16 tons fo what I mean.
I don’t know if I would call 16 Tons “country”. Folk maybe.
Only really became aware of the actual lyrics in the past few years despite growing up know the tune. Straight from the labor wars of the time, when Pinkertons and the government murdered people for striking for safer working conditions.
woody Guthrie - tear the fascists down
Jesse Welles - masks are off
Jesse Welles also has a great song good vs ice
yep, and the south used to be far more pro-union back during the coal miner wars, of which there’s some pretty cool country songs.
