Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Whoever told you that is your enemy.
30 years later and the album is just as relevant as the day it released.
I love the classics but does anyone have recs for modern day rebellion music? I saw dropkick Murphy’s released a track “citizen ice” but I would love additional recommendations. Open to any genre that harshly criticizes the current state of ‘gestures broadly’
Grandson is probably the closest still making music. Just went independent last year. Have seen them twice, their shows are like going to a protest. A lot of love and anger in the crowd.
I’ve really been digging Cheap Perfume lately. It’s pure feminine rage, which I’m an absolute sucker for. I would start with “it’s okay to punch Nazis” but I think almost everything on their newest album is pretty good.
Destructo Disk seems pretty good too but I haven’t dug into them as much
I’m also on the hunt for modern day rebellion music.
Sum 41 - We’re All To Blame
The theme and antics in the music video are chosen on purpose. And 20 years later are downright prophetic despite being targeted at an entirely different era.
death grips and machine girl probably
Ehh I listen to both death grips and machine girl and while both are heavy neither are critical of current state
i’d call them rebellion music, just not towards the government. besides, their lyrics are very abstract and everyone can make out of them what they want.
Whoever told them that was almost certainly an elementary school teacher who didn’t know any better.
Americans do seem to be these daya
