Sea Lion Records has made Election Day USA, a CD compilation of anti-Bush, anti-war music, free for download as .mp3s. I'm a sucker for political songs—even those I disagree with, so I enjoyed these even if they're not all musically top-notch. Besides, I agreed with most of them. And, some of them are pretty good on any terms, especially (in no particular order),
- John McCutcheon, Let’s Pretend (I actually heard this one on the radio once)
- The Positive Chi Units, Rise Up!
- Coiler, Rogue Nation
- John Kasper, Conspiracy of Silence
- Kris Penn, Coming Home No More
- Musical Graffiti, Peace Inside
- David Rovics, The War Is Over
… and then there's the Sonofa Bush rap which isn't my sort of thing, but will appeal to some.
Why does all this remind me of The Folk Song Army?
Bonus, funny, equal-opportunity-offender (from jibjab, via half the blogs in the world, which is probably why sever keeps saying it's overloaded): Jibjab does This Land
