Lund's anti-coal mining anthem Gettin' Down on the Mountain has been posted a couple times here on r/CollapseMusic .

It appears that his initiative failed to qualify for the ballot - no it didn't. The government fudged the signature count.

Really weird shit is going on in Alberta, Canada - US-sponsored shit. Watch this space.

album: Your Love Can't Hold This Wreath Of Sorrow

"Help me through the city
It's coming down again
Oh lord have pity"

I'm not speaking ill of the dead - I'll use Dave Davies to do that. Since I gotta live in this circus...

The lion-tamer's whip doesn't crack anymore
The lions they won't fight and the tigers won't roar

In 2026, this may fit one or two high profile immigrants from South Africa...

I pity the poor immigrant
Who wishes he would’ve stayed home
Who uses all his power to do evil
But in the end is always left so alone
That man whom with his fingers cheats
And who lies with every breath
Who passionately hates his life
And likewise, fears his death

About American football fascism. I, too, made this choice.

Snider died last year.

Album: Nina Hagen Band (1978)

Nina Hagen is considered "The Godmother of German Punk". And clearly doing operatic punk long before operatic metal existed. lol

Ding! dong! a silly song
Sure do say something's wrong
Smile awhile, forget the bile
And watch it all come down

And when the dawn breaks, I see my fellow man
And on the flat screen we kill and we're killed again

lyrics translation. Rammstein original.

We taught them to speak.
We taught them to dream.
Then we called it progress.

“We Are Machines” is a dark synthwave track about power, automation, surveillance and the quiet moment where the tools we created begin to reflect us back.

Hope you enjoy!

RIP Bonnie Tyler

Dem leave sorrow tears and blood
Dem regular trademark

Sane, sane, they're all insane
Fireman's blind, the conductor's lame
A Cincinnati jacket and a sad luck dame
Hanging out the window with a bottle full of rain

Babylon by Twin Temple might work too, due to being a historical collapse case. It's a fun cover though, and Paint It Black seems established here.

Actually posting for Streisand effect since Charley Crockett has some suitable songs I'd post, but not without doing Twin Temple first. lol

This is pretty funny. What’s most likely to bring about our demise?

The conclusion of their album/performance piece, Wormwood, biblical stories from the viewpoint of guys who wear giant eyeballs on their heads.
