It’s Gonna Be a Long Four Years Playlist

Boysetsfire all the way.

 

Really stoked to listen through this, thanks Jason! I'm also planning some political activism... one thing I can say for Trump's presidency is that I feel awakened politically already.

 

The only thing I can find positive about this dictatorship is that there's going to be (hopefully) a shit ton of good punk music coming out

 

Crime in Stereo - The Troubled Stateside

 

"Can't I just spend the next four years at a punk show?"

 

You're lovely. My playlist needs some inspiration so I cant wait to dive in to this tonight!

 

Yes, this so much. Some Enter Shikari and that one Set Your Goals song (Gaia Bleeds) would be great additions as well.

 

"God please save these troubled states"

 

Been listening to a lot of Strike Anywhere and Good Riddance lately...

 

Thanks Jason this is a great idea. I added this to my playlists. As a canadian who has been following the election and post-election very closely I can definitely sympathize with how many americans are feeling these days. I never thought I would be following US politics this closely. Closer than ever before that's for sure. It's a daily thing for me now lol

 

Thanks for this! Not sure if this is in response to my request in the Political Forum, but much appreciated!

 

Fuck Authority! Silent majority!
Sedition is such a good song. That's truly a song that makes me want to mosh around my house in the front windows for all passerbys to see. But, yeah, all these songs are great.

 

NOFX - The Idiots Have Taken Over
Suicide Machines - Hating Hate
Wonder Years - Dynamite Shovel
MU330 - KKK Highway
Leftover Crack - Nazi White Trash
Bouncing Souls - Battleground

All of Transgender Dysphoria Blues has been my go to FUCK YOU to my current home state of North Carolina for HB2.

 

Anti flag - Break Something
Billy Talent - Turn Your Back
Suicide Machines - Hating Hate

 

Honestly, a "fun" political album is River City Rebels "Racism, Religion, and War". That opening track, Hate is such a good sing-a-long.

 

Been doing the same myself Jason. Thanks for the playlist! And bonus points for also putting on Spotify!

 

Apple music is better

 

Can I post my Donald Trump rap diss here? Contains explicit language. Sorry if I offend anyone, I was very upset. I don't like cussing when I do freestyle.

 

Desaparecidos have some great songs in a similar vein to the ones in the playlist. Also loving the representation for Pennywise, they were actually the first band I ever really got into (when I was like 11/12!), it's crazy how their songs mean more to me now than they ever did when I used to listen to them every day.

Also I know this isn't punk, but I've found myself listening to Thom Yorke's solo album The Eraser a lot lately. It just sums up the current feeling of anxiety so well for me, and some of the songs seem particularly topical despite being written over 10 years ago.

 

Been listening to new Face to Face, Descendents, and Teenage Bottlerocket. And just got the awesome repress of American Idiot, God I really do love that album. My close buddy Chris Beeble was the sound engineer on the first three new albums I mentioned, so if you like them, give him a shout on Twitter.

 

I haven't listened to Antiflag in years but kinda think I might check their show out next week. A week in with this clown and he's already fucking shit up.

 

Question for apple music users: why am I always directed to the download link for itunes when I click on the playlist instead of opening the list in iTunes? I have iTunes opened but it doesn't work

 

Chrome or Safari?

 

I'm using firefox on my pc.
Just tried it on my iPhone and it worked perfectly fine there, so I'm good for now. But if anyone has an idea why it doesn't work on pc, please let me know =)
