Conservative Rock Music? - Vanity

[QuisCustodiet1776]

As a branch of the thread that was just posted about modern music - anyone have any suggestions for conservative rock bands? Why are there so few?

I have run across one: Tor Nemo

Can be found on CDBaby. Any others?

[CatherineofAragon]

Yngwie Malmsteen is a conservative

"Lots of conservative musicians, not much in the way of “conservative” music."

Ain't that the truth. I've been trying for a few years now to get a group of people together to play original conservative/patriotic protest rock, and have met damned few. There are conservative musicians around, but not many who have the guts to put their beliefs to music, then put it out there for the CommieLibs to rip to shreds.

So at this point, 10 Pound Test is just a solo project. If any FReepers know anyone who might be interested in collaborating with a PO'd conservative, Christian, veteran, gun owning, pickup driving, Southern/Western redneck rocker, send 'em my way.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

Time for chow.

Closest one is Kansas... :-(

[CatherineofAragon]

Oh, my...will you look at that BBQ sandwich. So much of it looks good. Maybe if I’m ever in Kansas..for whatever reason.

[Rides_A_Red_Horse]

A lot of Metal performers are Conservative, for instance Dave Mustaine of Megadeth.

Alice Cooper is Conservative and built a Presbyterian Youth Center in Arizona.

[who knows what evil?]

There are a LOT of tasty items on that menu...if they are successful; I wouldn’t be surprised to see a few turn up east of the Mississippi in a few years. if the country makes it that far, of course.

[Rides_A_Red_Horse]

I’ll be honest with you, I don’t necessarily look for political viewpoints incorporated into music.

As long as they don't break into a liberal, douche bag rant in the middle of a concert...

[CatherineofAragon]

The menu might have more of a Mexican/Guatemalan flavor by then.

[who knows what evil?]

No doubt.

Personally I vote for Charlie Watts.

No, I'm not kidding.

Don’t be bothered by what smaller minds have to say”

“It’s simple to say I’ll quit
When I’m scared and sick
But I know that when I come down
I’ll try the same old trick
Please help me God when I’m feeling well
Save me God from speeding to Hell”
