You guys ever heard Aus Rotten?

Freedom for all political prisoners in the United States
Be aware of cointelpro and the falsehoods it creates
We must stop the racist atrocities committed by police
Demand that every last freedom fighter be released
These people lost their freedom because of their knowledge of the facts
And their commitment to expose it warrants FBI attacks
If they survive they're hauled away, the system now aborts
Their rights and any justice in political upper courts
Another imprisoned year goes by
Another parole will be denied
Another prisoner is victimized
The government and the FBI
Make sure parole will be denied
Our judicial system's a fucking lie
They'll keep them there until they die
The victims of the corrupt legal system we ignore
Like Leonard Peltier, Geronimo Pratt, The Move9, and Richard Moore (Dhoruebim Wahad)
only crime committed is their mere existence
Or their noble sacrifice of uncompromising resistance
Persistence of resistance stems from independent thought
So these "dangerous" revolutionaries are left in jail to rot
This country reeks of prejucice from sea to shining sea
They fucking lock the people up and throw away the key
Another imprisoned year goes by
Another parole will be denied
Another prisoner is victimized
The government and the FBI
Make sure parole will be denied
Our judicial system's a fucking lie
They'll keep them there until they die
Our freedom of speech in this country is limited
To having the sage obedient views the government want us to have
Those with dissenting views are harassed, beaten imprisoned or killed
Your freedom of assembly is also a lie
If you protest against the government the chances are
You've already been filmed by police and are now on file
There's hundreds of political prisoners being held all over the United States
They have to endure some of the harshest conditions of the American prison system
As long as our government continues to subject us to their cowardly oppression
We're no longer obligated to them as peaceful citizens
The time's extremely overdue to take back what's rightfully ours
We're no longer here for their selfish exploitation
It's our lives, our minds, our beliefs
Fuck their threats and intimidation
They have nothing left to hold over our heads
Freedom and equality some people will never know
Like Mumia Abu-Jamal who is waiting on death row
His rights were stripped away by cops under Rizzo's reign
Then he was dragged into court where Judge Ssbo did the same
He exposed their fascist tactics and their feeble racist fears
So he was framed and put in prison where he's now spent fourteen years
He fights for the rights of people who fall victim to government violence
They want him dead because the voice of the voiceless won't be silent
Another imprisoned year goes by
Another parole will be denied
Another prisoner is victimized
The government and the FBI
Make sure parole will be denied
Our judicial system's a fucking lie
They'll keep them there until they die

    YouTube - Aus-Rotten - They Ignore Peaceful Protest.

    They ignore protest
    But can they ignore a city on fire
    It's time to do more than talk
    When they ignore peaceful protest
    They ignore protest
    But can they ignore a burning police car
    It's time to do more than talk
    When they ignore peaceful protest
    They ignore signs and marches
    But can they ignore bricks and rocks
    It's time to do more than talk
    When they ignore peaceful protest

    These guys are fucking sick. I normally don't care for 'political' music (apart from the odd war-themed song), but this is awesome. Thanks for sharing.

    You guys might like Antischism.

    YouTube - Antischism - Take your city back

    Rope off another section of the city for the upper class,
    Make another slum for which to hide away the human trash,
    Separate the blacks from whites, the rich from the poor
    Create the crime epidemic then sell people locks for their doors.

    So no more stabbing each other in the back,
    STAND TOGETHER! And take your city back,
    Take to the streets we have the numbers unity is all we lack
    WORK TOGETHER! And take the city back,
    They infiltrated, segregated, and took al that we had!

    Turned communities into battle zones and then built skyscrapers like giant tombstones
    Turned communities into battle zones and then built skyscrapers like giant tombstones

    Well I think we've had enough of that, so stand together and take it all back,
    Take to the streets, and take your city back!

    We have got to learn to recognize the real enemy,
    Poor fight one another over color, what's achieved?
    When we divide, they conquer and up goes another condo-plex,
    And unless we stop them now, there won't be nothing left (But poverty and hopelessness)

    So no more stabbing each other in the back,
    STAND TOGETHER! And take your city back,
    Take to the streets we have the numbers unity is all we lack
    WORK TOGETHER! And take the city back,
    That they infiltrated, gentrified, until we take it back!
