    Public Enemy - Fear of a Black Planet


    They don't come much more anti-establishment than Public Enemy.

    Have to agree with Anonoboy just doesn't get anymore anti-establishment than P.E. Same goes for Immortal Technique.

    Immortal Technique - Poverty Of Philosophy

    Good idea for a thread, I'm sure I'll think of a few more, will post them up.

    off the top off my head:

    F*** Tha Police - NWA
    Their Law - Prodigy
    God Save The Queen - Sex Pistols
    Open Up - Leftfield with John Lydon

    Beds Are Burning - Midnight Oil (maybe more political than anti-establishment)

    and er... I Predict a Riot - Kaiser Chiefs? :pac: ;):D

    Some of these are more overt than others but these would be my picks

    And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda - The Pogues
    A Change is Gonna Come - Sam Cooke
    Holiday in Cambodia - Dead Kennedy (and/or most of Give Me Convenience or Give me Death. 'Pull My Stings' is definitely one for the X-Factor status quo!)
    Triad - Jefferson Airplane for some sexual politics!
    Imagine - John Lennon
    Most of Pete Seeger's stuff
    Everyday People - Sly and the Family Stone
    Livin for the City - Stevie Wonder
    The Big Country - Talking Heads
    The Ramones!
    Woodie Guthrie - like Bob Dylan, most of it has that anti-establishment vibe to it.

    Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan. Not just the song, but the entire album. It's not so much anti-establishment, he just totally turned his back on folk music.

    It's anti-establishment in a quiet way I guess. More that the story behind the album is anti-establishment.

    Inspired by the Baader-Meinhof apparently.

    Absolutely any song by GG Allin is totally anti establishment. The video is 42 minutes but you'll get the gist of it about 2 - 3 minutes in. He is a musician renowned for the violence and obscenity of his live shows. He's had sex on stage with men, women and animals. He has attacked audience members on many, many occasions.
