Maybe not exactly what you're looking for but heres the best I have to offer:

David Rovics... One song is: "Failed State". Much of his work is about related history, like "1848"," Rojava", and commentary on wider subjects like overall class struggle.

Another artist is Grandson. His works are more about the current dystopia broadly, only tangentially related to labor through entangled issues. But it is anti-authoritarian. A couple examples: "Dirty" "Autonomous Delivery Robot". Very modern.

And my final offering, Moon Walker. Very similar to Grandson, modern. But, more overt in the meaning of the music. Some examples: "Apocolypticism", "Ban this song" (definitively anti-authoritarian lol), "Monopoly money".



Enjoy~!! :3

@DeliaChristina Not sure if “British anarchocommunist hip hop with 1990s beats” is what you’re looking for, but if so I recommend QELD: https://qeld.bandcamp.com/album/kush-zombies

@DeliaChristina Maybe Mathew Herbert, Strong: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tE41XRIArH4

@soundclamp @DeliaChristina @buffyleigh Would've recommended Test Dept, was not disappointed to see it already here!

[deathkitten@firetribe.org]

@DeliaChristina@sfba.social Have you checked out The Dropkick Murphys? Particularly the albums "This Machine Still Kills Fascists", "Okemah Rising", and "For the People"

@DeliaChristina Might not be what you are looking for exactly, very much the queer, trans, furry, anarchist niche, but Dog Park Dissidents fits the bill (and is my favourite band :D)

[cadellin@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@DeliaChristina pretty much anything by The Levellers; a lot of the political stuff is UK specific but should be what you're looking for.
