Recent protest songs that have actually been good?

aactv [Edit] [Delete] 18:09, 23 May '11

Are there any? All I seem to hear on to hear on the topic these days is shit like the king blues/shikari/frank turner etc (mostly boneheaded incoherent slogannering).

And I know most will say stuff like Dylan normally, but I was wondering about stuff more recent, within the last 5 years or so.

This is not a thread moaning about the lack of protest songs, there have been plenty of awful ones. Its more just trying to find if there are any specs of decency in the large-ish heap of shit.
