A Sonic Youth ep 251 - Storytelling Protest Songs

In what was supposed to be the episode 250 special (before last week's short-notice interview with Courtney Barnett), Oliver looks at some favourite 'storytelling' protest songs. Including an incredible unreleased song by MJ Lenderman about the Vietnam War, Jason Isbell and Drive-By Truckers with more introspective tales of U.S. involvment in The Iraq War, and a brilliant song about ex NRA Leader Harlon Carter's dark past.
