Out of your list I rate Lacuna Coil very highly, I don't know the others except Depeche Mode, who are not my thing which is a tad ironic, I believe, as I think Lacuna Coil were influenced by them. They don't sound alike though, Lacuna Coil are pretty heavy.

i like lots of different types of music. and i don't listen to music soley based upon politics. i get alot of my music taste from my parents actually. i listen mostly to 80's hardcore, punk and rockabilly. just a few bands that aren't all about being anti-fascist...
- mental as anything
- radio birdman
- the cramps
- the damned
- the kinks
- the stooges
- the slits
- bikini kill
- the cure
not everyone's thing, but hey i like my music. it's usually great to sing and dance to.

Well, I love the Ramones, SLF, Undertones, Moondogs, Vandals, Cock Sparrer, and I love Flogging Molly, Mutiny, The Prodigals, Real McKenzies and the majority of Celtic punk... :wub:

The name of this thread is very misleading. I thought you were asking (in a very round about way) if anyone knows about nazi music, so I was just gonna slip in:

Screwdriver...

But yeah, I'd say alot of music isn't antifascist, hell, Sex Pistols as hell aren't. I think it would be harder to find/name bands that are specfically antifascist.

So yeah, maybe think about how you name your threads :)

In what way? I can think of plenty of bands that are other things and anti-fascist. Just three off the top of my head.

Manic Street Preachers
Chumbawamba
McCarthy

I'm not that firmiliar with those bands I'm afraid, vaguely though.

But yeah, I guess I'm not totally sure what you mean as a result, but I guess maybe what I coulds say is that yeah, sure there might be heaps of bands that are either not racist, or anti-racist, but its completely different to be specifically anti-fascist. As in, bands that specifically target fascists as the scum that they are in their lyrics. Just like you would call a band with alot of feminist lyrics a feminist band, a anti-fascist band has alot of anti-fasicist lyrics, and its very distinctly anti-fascist.

Hell, I can't think of alot of bands like that.

Does that answer you question? Maybe you should tell me more about the bands you mentioned.

They come to Belgium in the summer.
Just like Tool !

Well, the manic street preachers have a song which is about the republicans in the spanish civil war as is totally anti-fascist, quoting lines from republican fighters stating "if I can shoot rabbits then I can shoot fascists".

However, they are antio-fascist, but more predominantly they are socialists. I can't think of any bands which have just an ati-fascist position, they tend to have other leftwing beliefs as well, if they are anti-fascist. But specifically being anti-fascist is not rare.

I may be on the completely wrong track, but I have the feeling 20cdndollars meant music that not only isn't anti-fascist, but isn't predominantly political or socially aware either. Then again, maybe I'm wrong.

Maybe you have a point. I personally, even though am into a genre (punk) that you would expect to have alot of anti-fascist content, I can't think of alot of bands that fit the mold i imagine. But maybe its also i stick the label more to antifa and SHARPie type bands?
