I haven't found any bands yet. I know there is a movement called "Rock for Life" or something like that. There should be tons of bands. But while I was searching, I found this awesome editorial by a guy who actually writes for Seattle (where I live). It is a good article. I even e-mailed the guy. Of course I told him about phatmass.

Punk Rock Baby Killers

January 31, 2004

by Hans Zeiger



In its dirge entitled, "Generation Lost," the punk rock band Rise Against screams, "Getting trampled under boots of progess / Ignore the pleading of the nameless faces / Now with our backs against the wall / How long til we fall?" It would be an appropriate question about a generation of Americans lost, literally, to abortion.
Not surprisingly, the vociferations of "Generation Lost" have nothing to do with the tragedy of abortion and much to do with lamenting what Rise Against perceives as immense misfortune, pain, poverty, and hopelessness amongst young punks as perpetrated by the family, religion, the pro-life movement, and George W. Bush. Rise Against was a congruent addition to the line-up of punk rockers at a pro-abortion orgy late Thurday night at a Washington, D.C. nightclub co-sponsored by NARAL Pro-Choice America and Punkvoter.com.

Joining Rise Against were the bands Against Me, None More Black, and Anti-Flag. One Anti-Flag song entitled "No Apology" is an apparent refusal to apologize to aborted babies for having taken their lives. "Making it illegal won't make it go away ... the issue for [pro-lifers] isn't life, its control! Control of what we do and say but you'll never gain control!" And in its "pro-choice" anthem, "Right to Choose," Anti-Flag screams out a motto for what NARAL calls Generation Pro-Choice: "I'm f-ing free!!"

Outgoing NARAL Pro-Choice America president Kate Michelman was present at the Punk Rock Abortion Party Thursday, telling rebellious pro-abortion punks, "Young people who've never lived in a time when they didn't have the right to choose shouldn't wake up one day in a world they don't recognize." Michelman and Anti-Flag lead singer Justin Sane announced an ambitious new plan to empower the next generation of pro-abortion activists through the internet, alternative news sources, and drug-laden punk rock concerts. "We must defend a woman's right to choose while she still has it!" proclaimed Sane.

Punkvoter.com was founded as a "voter education organization" to "register and mobilize over 500,000 of today's youth as one voice" in voting against George W. Bush and opposing his pro-life policies and the war on terror.

Among hundreds of Punkvoter.com member groups are the popular bands Green Day, Foo Fighters, NOFX, and Bad Religion. In the customary spirit of the movement, Bad Religion skreighs, "I hate my family, hate my school, speed limits and the golden rule." Death is better than living in a world of rules and morals, asseverates Bad Religion. Why then, asks the hate band, "do we pity the dead?" Bad Religion concludes, "The dead are better off than we."

So it is clear - the abortion industry and the punk rock industry are a natural partnership. One legion preaches death as another executes it. "I want to die today, f-ing die today," are the lyrics of a two-month old St. Louis punk band called Today's Abortion. In 2001, the band Toys that Kill released its first CD entitled, "The Citizen Abortion," with songs like "Mating Season" and "Bullet from the Sky." Another band called Butthole Surfers has a CD on the market entitled "Locust Abortion Technician", in one song of which a young boy is instructed to hate his mother for giving birth to him: "If you see your mom this weekend, / Be sure and tell her, SATAN, SATAN, SATAN!!!"

We live in the midst of a youth culture that celebrates rebellion and rage in its entertainment. And we live equally in a culture of death that exalts abortion to the count of 43 million since Roe v. Wade, that has exacted most of a billion dollars from the paychecks of American taxpayers over the past year for "family planning," that cares neither for life nor the quality of life, that spits upon dignity and curses God.

The indelible link between abortion and its gospel singers is not to be ignored. NARAL Pro-Choice America and Punkvoter.com may symbolize the more vocal movement of a divided culture, but they can never stand for America's future. For if America's bards continue screaming for death and America's youth continue their comfortable march toward the clinic at the beat of the CD speakers, America will surely die.

as long as she's spread......

I got something to say

Yeah...rock for life www.rockforlife.org

They are awesome, we hand out literature by them. BUT....
I know they are from the east coast and I am from the west, so maybe they are really effective out there, but...

Their point is rock (bands) for life (prolife), but yet it harder for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than to get your prolife band linked on their prolife band list, hence their band list is pretty weak/obscure.

They never put on any pro-life shows on the west coast.

They haven't put out a prolife cd in about 4 years I think.

They are a sweet organization, I love em, but it just doesn't seem like they are too focused on the "rock" part.

but it is sweet cause they are headed by catholics and under the Catholic
American life leauge...ALL

sounds like someone on the west should give them a call and see whats up. We gotta keep pushing.

As for the band member of Misfits starting conservativepunk.com, this is fact. Check the link to a editorial by a fellow from Seattle about conservative and Graves: [url="http://www.mensnewsdaily.com/archive/yz/z-misc/zeiger/2004/zeiger122804.htm"]http://www.mensnewsdaily.com/archive/yz/z-...eiger122804.htm[/url]
The guy who wrote the editorial is actually the same who wrote the article from a few posts I made earlier in this forum. I am definately not saying Misfits are still okay to listen to, but its good to hear that they grew up a little and are trying to make somewhat of a difference.

Pax,
Melissa
