Do you consider Against Me! along those lines?

Never gave them a listen so I'm not sure. I just listed those 3 as they seem pretty obvious. Was thinking more in the vein of Springsteen though, but that's cool.

Well I wouldn't. Give them a shot, definetely one of my favorites. Jump on their myspace, its a decent sampling

they aren't much like any of the bands you named but desaparecidos are pretty political.

It's strange to think that people still haven't heard of Against Me!. One of my favorite bands of all time, incredible tunes.

Thank you for the rec's, threw some Desaparecidos on my ipod and I'm digging it, will most definitely check into the others as well.

From the songs he has up on there, check out "Another Bag of Bones" and his rendition of "Love Me, I'm a Liberal"

Take a look at Bloc Party. Helicopter comes to mind, when seeking politically themed songs..
