I doubt that they are really political in any way, but they're a pretty good band, although I tend to prefer the melodeath and folk metal scene a bit better than the power metal scene, but its all metal and its all good. I digress. Anyone else here like to give a Marxist critique of Iced Earth? They have a lot of songs with revolution evoking lyrics. Ten Thousand Strong, Declaration Day, etcfor example. Discuss.
