Does anyone know any good activist bands? Bands that talk about racism/politics etc.

I know Oi Polloi, The Oppressed, Loekaimie and Anti Flag but I want more.

Suggestions please! :D

Los Fastidios, Angelic Upstarts (to an extent), Aus-Rotten, Choking Victim, Leftover Crack. A lot of bands sing about politics, but those are ones that are also active in the political movement, except maybe the Upstarts.

I found their "anthems for the revolution" lacking quite a bit.
Total disappointment.
