Rush drummer/lyricist Neal Peart Was (and could still be; I dunno) a proponent of Objectivism. Their album 2112 is a rock-opera rendtion of the struggle between a future collectivist Brotherhood of Man and the rationalist/romantic "Elder Race" who return to Earth in their spaceships to overthrow the whim-worshiping Priests of the Temples of Syrinx and the hated Red Star banner. Ayn Rand would've given it a 98 on "Objectivist Bandstand".

I hope she wouldn't have danced to it with her "girlfriend," though.

Don't forget "Tom Sawyer" and "Freewill".

Unfortunately the better prog-rock bands (Pink Floyd) were socialists I think.
