How do we stay riled up about politics after the election is over?
punk political social roc
A solo punk band with songs ranging from politics to social issues to evolutionary biology.
Lacking any real musical talent, I decided to use Punk-o-Matic to create some generic punk backgrounds to the various songs I had written. Recorded at low quality through a computer microphone, the songs are not musical masterpieces but the lyrics are still strong. Give it a listen, you might enjoy it.

Lyrics
The press, the hype, the god damn constant standings The fight, the sides, the ubiquitous ramblings We rally behind We follow the signs The loss, the crush, the mother fucking trampling It’s now after the storm A peaceful serene scene Yet this isn’t the norm On false safety we are weaned We don’t defy, we conform Eyes fixed on blue screens It seems our banners are worn No one speaks much less screams Where did the message go? (I don’t know!) Do we cower in defeat? (No one on the streets!) Does only evil operate? (The fiery fuel of hate!) How deeply are we cleaved? (The world stands deceived!) It’s now after the storm A peaceful serene scene Yet this isn’t the norm On false safety we are weaned We don’t defy, we conform Eyes fixed on blue screens It seems our banners are worn No one speaks much less screams Is this fact or fiction? The coefficient of friction Is slurring up my diction Smudging all I’ve written How did we deviate To this binary state Soiled our Clean Slate And the hour grows late I dissolve like fireworks In a bang, oh, so short My last ember burns and burns and burns and burns and burns and burns and burns and burns… Only silence after the storm.
