Wagner participated in the 1848/49 revolution in Saxony together with Bakunin, he also met Proudhon somewhere in the 1840ies ... after the failed revolution, he moved to the right and wrote pamphlets about "the jewry in music"

Try 'Squeezing Sponges over Policemen's Heads' by Gong, from their Camembert Electrique album. Or, better still, 'Mexican Whistler' by Roger Whittaker, his reworking of an old Zapatista tune

Dr Eugene Chadbourne- jazz country punk thrash with native American influences- not sure he would define himself as an anarchist but I get a lot from the ideas he works with- lots of brilliant songs and he can play guitar banjo and hay rake like no one else, he is fucking nutty to see live- a force of nature.

going on Dr Chad's site I just seen Jimmy Carl Black is dead... howl!
Check out Jimmy Carl as well.
Does any one remember Blodwyn Pygg? some one told me they were anarchists.
Of course Amsrterdam's The Ex well meaning dull and as close to anarchist as they dare get.

Has anyone mentioned The Subhumans? (The Canadian band, not the English one)
The bass player Gerry Useless was one of the 'Vancouver Five'.

If anyone's interested, I came across some pretty great recordings of Italian anarchist folk music on the ole intertubes (songs written by Pietro Gori and other 1st wave anarchists back in the early 20th c.; recordings are much more recent obviously). It's really catchy stuff so it's worth checking out even if you don't speak Italian.
I hope it's ok if I post the mediafire links directly:

Fuck, that is an impressive level of SPGBery:

It's not enough to call yourself “socialist”
The Nazis and Trots did but they meant
Wages system under state management
It's not enough to support those reforms
Can't change laws by which the market performs

sorry, it must've slipped my mind; the password is highqualitymp3, if I remember correctly. It should say on the blog though (1st or 2nd page).

Ignoring the whole "omfg i has anarchyst lirycs i are so revolt" punk rock thing I recommend to check noise music acts which are truly revolutionary in their own field, like, for example, Masonna. Apart from that, there's never enough of Psychic TV.

Every anarchist on here would be doing themselves a favor by listening to Panopticon: uncompromising, epic ambient black metal with a unique anarchist/pagan bent.

Yeah, but somehow having absolutely shit taste in music is less offensive to my sensibilities than having absolutely shit politics. Mainly because the former is a crime of which I too am guilty.

Someone obviously doesn't know what they're talking about. If you haven't listened to it or read the lyrics, you have no room to judge the music or the message behind it (which is actually quite erudite and changed my mind about the role of religion in anarchism).
Come on now, let's be accepting of other peoples' ideals..

What about David Rovics? I'm not crazy about his voice, but some of his songs aren't bad.

www.anarcho-punk.net has a lot of crusty stuff and punk which cover a lot of topics concerning "anarchist issues" or whatever. Amebix is good. Additionally, Anti-Flag are anarchy.

I listened to "Options" on my mp3 player today while I was standing around killing time at the bus stop near the place I had a job interview cos I'd accidentally turned up really early for it. I definitely felt like I was sticking it to the man.

I think that's who he's referring to, I've heard of it, I'm not crazy about black metal, but they wrote songs about Sacco and Vanzetti... I don't think they are Nazis
Indeed. Here he is fighting against the zionazis:
they do have a pretty decent song about Makhno.
