So many great records. I could definitely sit around with you and listen to records and talk politics!
A lot of my base line political views have been influenced by the Content With Dying album of Chokehold. Quite some very good records you mention here.
Dennis, thank you for the very interesting video, I’ve never even heard of many of these groups! I live in Russia, have a communist worldview and play in a rock band in which I talk about this. Your music was one of the factors in introducing these ideas. Thank you very much for this. I hope that one day we will see a world without borders, which are just an invention of those people who want to exploit the work of others.
I hope that one day Russia will be liberated from the insanity so I can come there and play.

I read the Revolution of Everyday Life because you listed it in the INC liner notes. Such a great book that very much influenced the way I now see the world. Thanks for the recommendation!
Love that book!!!
I grew up in a red household, with a dad who came up in the punk scene. It's hard for me to kind of pinpoint where it all started, and even harder to distill it into a handful of records. I'll preach to the converted for a second though: The Shape Of Punk To Come was, and is, a pivotal record for me. I was already listening to all the political punk rock, I was already studing history and looking at history through leftie/Marxist glasses.
That being said: Shape was the one that kind of put it in a different perspective for me. I was in uni, and a lot of punk came of as kind of "street smarts" and anti-academia (sometimes with good reason, other times with "fuck you bookworm" kind of reasons). Shape was important to me because it showed that it showed a side of hardcore that wasn't afraid to cite its sources. Wasn't afraid to be a bit pretentious. I knew right then and there that punk and philosophy go hand in hand. I have referenced hardcore and punk many times in academic writings. Sometimes obviously and with citation. Other times as a cute inside joke to myself.
It was clear when I graduated from university, with my thesis being on Theodor Adorno's analysis of the Culture Industry, I owed Refused a "thank you", so I did. In the few words that were afforded to me at the graduation ceremody I said that the uncited citation of my thesis was the Shape.
I remember reading ‘this manifesto is very much 4 real’ in the party program album notes and thinking Woaaaah… I always guessed it was intentional but nice to hear it confirmed so many years later!
Great episode and least to say very recognizable 👍🏻
Songs in the Key of Resistance by Lost Patrol has been the most important political album for me.
Thanks. 🙏
I'm a little bit older, and I came to music after "politics"- I mean, the Panthers were in my neighborhood, and I was literally fed by them, and Cesar Chavez came to my primary school, so, in some ways, I was born into it. So, you mentioned "preaching to choir"? I can see that, but I think of it more like "developing my politics"- and some of what you talk about are key for me in those terms. Specifically, Public Enemy really refined a lot of nuance for me. Michael Franti, in all of his guises ,really softened a lot of my youthful aggro, without losing militancy. The Manics ( and yes Refused) allowed me to change my hardline stance against the French philosophers ( previous to points you and they raised I thought of most of it as counter-revolutionary navel gazing ) Thank Vuzz ( my catch-all fake God) there are still people out there making great art, that still can help an old dog like me learn a few new tricks. Also, thank you for your short discourse on the state of the world. Sincerely, you said some truly good things, there. I realize that it's very easy to become overwhelmed, and thus "Black Pilled" in the lingo, but continual development, continual refinement- whether you want to call it "dialectics" or Trotsky's "Permanent revolution" is the only hope for a thinking, feeling person- so, giving voice to your ideas is a great help.
I joined too late, will catch the vod later.
Very few people influenced me more than Dennis yourself, between Refused, Noise Conspiracy and Lost Patrol.
I adore these videos. Thank you.
I kind of feel The Manic Street Preachers have been overlooked here. I drove trough the UK with the Generation Terrorists cassette on my walkman on tour, and everything suddenly made sense. Would be nice to hear your thoughts on them and their politics
I love them and been thinking about doing a full episode about them.
Stay Beautiful is still one of the greatest songs ever written!
Hi Dennis! How about Consolidated-Play More Music?
Love it. Saw them live on that album. Very influential.
"Music and Politics" has always been one of my all time favorite tracks since I bought the CD "Hypocrisy Is The Greatest Luxury"!
