Mariachi Cover of The Devil Went Down To Georgia

The video for this is worth watching just to see the effort the Mariachi band have went to to impress. It’s hard not to like them as they all smile a lot and look like they’re enjoying themselves. – If you care, give it a share –

Iron Maiden – Run To The Hills

This song is a comment on the genocide perpetrated upon the First Nations peoples of north America by the US federal government and the land stealing settlers who followed. The First Nations people still await justice and respect. – If you care, give it a share –

Fire Inc – Tonight Is What It Means To Be Young

Taken from the fantastic movie, Streets of Fire, which is well worth the watching for any fans of eighties movies out there. The other hit song from the movie can be heard here: Fire Inc – Nowhere Fast – If you care, give it a share –

Declan Hunt – The West’s Asleep

The lyrics of this fine ballad will be stirring to all with rebel blood in their veins. It is based on the poem by Thomas Davis. The audio follows the lyrics. The West’s Asleep When all beside a vigil keep, The West’s asleep, the West’s asleep – Alas! and well may Éireann weep When Connacht […]

The Hooters – Satellite

Some of you may remember this lively one from the 80’s (that’s the 1980’s..). It’s a satirical look at the phenomenon of TV evangelists, pseudo-religion and associated greed and hypocrisy that covered the US at the time.

Billy Idol – Rebel Yell [Rock]

One for those of a certain vintage. Idol was touted as being punk, maybe because he had spiky hair. But there’s no punk rhythm to this one. Rock all the way. – If you care, give it a share –

Los Serruchos – Living On The Edge

Rebel Voice refuses to post any performances by the Zionists of Aerosmith. Yet Living On The Edge is a great track, so we couldn’t ignore it. This is a gritty cover by Los Serruchos who really rock it. The video is raw, the band are weird and wonderful, and the music is fuckin’ glorious. – […]
