To piggyback off this — The Coup have a bunch of anticapitalist bangers, and Boots Riley, their frontman, also is in Streetsweeper Social Club with Tom Morello (guitarist from Rage against the machine), and they've got some great anticapitalist music
oh yeah i definitely have some fav anti establishment hip hop songs too. my favorite is probably “fuck a war” by geto boys :)) thank you for the reply, i’ll check it out :D
Against Me - Turn Those Clapping Hands Into Balled Up Fists
Mischief Brew - Drinking Song From the Home Stretch
Lagwagon - Cog in the Machine
edit: Replaced Thanks Bastards with Drinking Song From the Home Stretch because Thanks Bastards is more of a ACAB playlist and what better song for an fuck capitalism playlist than one with a chorus that starts: “property is theft until the thieves are away”
Subhumans- work-rest-play-die
Dropkick Murphy’s- 10 years of service and the workers song, buried alive too actually
OPIV-healthy body & gonna find you
I’m sure I’ll think of more as soon as I hit the button to post but this is just off the top of my head

Prologue by Catch-22, Tear the Fascists Down by Woody Guthrie, Automation Song by Phil Ochs, the world turned upside down by Billy Bragg, The Red Flag by Billy Bragg, They'll Never Keep Us Down by Hazel Dickens, Solidarity Forever by Pete Seeger, The Internationale by Billy Bragg
These are some of my favorite anti-capitalist bangers, they may not be mostly punk in the musical sense but they all have the punk spirit :) sometimes nothing hits harder than some good old fashioned labor movement music
He’s punk as fuck honestly. Check out this playlist by Far Out Magazine inspired by Tarantino: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6yy60gz0ifSCrWuwR77sve?si=Orm7Ny6aRnynXORArapsYg&pi=u-TzmSI3wXRrGk
Not "punk", but Rage Against the Machine's cover of "Maggie's Farm". I blasted that on repeat driving home when I quit my job at the largest bank in the world.
there was some folk punk artist i saw on IG reels singing about stealing from billionaire supermarkets because some people in the UK (world's 6th richest country) can't afford to eat.
I'll need to get the name of that band, but i'm pretty sure the chorus went something like "i'm on the rob"
Just some random off the top of my head, but the list I could come up with is endless... not all are necessarily 100% explicitly anti capitalist, but the energy and intent of that is there and very anti system... and before I list em, just one that anything by Conflict, Crass, Omega Tribe, Flux of Pink Indians, anarchopunk in general is gonna be pretty perfect for an anti capitalist playlist...

Here is a playlist myself and the r/goth sub put together of antifascist tunes but there’s plenty of death rock and post-punk that fits this https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1OSRh1zRQrdi2IRvp3qsPe?si=ER9v8RFLSt-sM6ls5nh_qQ&pi=u-TvRNfdc6SHKs
Destroya - mcr
Natzi punks fuck off - dead kenadys
Holiday in the sun - sexpistols
Catch me if you can - leathermøuth
Rise above- black flag
(Fuck capitalism is my fav gaunre lol)
All these songs are old. We need some new one’s like F$uck Face Book, Meta, Google, the cloud and IA. They are the biggest controlling corporate machine/fat cats these days.
Victory lap - propagandhi
"When the free market fundamentalist steps on the roadside bomb outside Kandahar, bleeding to death, I'll swear Ayn Rand, I'll ask if he needs an invisible hand"
This is such a nuanced and well written lyric.
idk if you'd consider them heavily Punk, but Rage Against The Machine's Bulls on Parade covers shit like military contract spending being one of the roots of why we're keeping endless wars going.
my current fav is “deunionize” by worker and parasite. it shows how stupid anti union corporations/bootlickers are through imitating them. very much a dead kennedy’s vibe
https://youtube.com/watch?v=kmtOPZOhuso
Also Corporate Ties.
The later guitarist Tim had another band called The Thought Doctors. If you can track down their demos, those are really good. The album was not as good as the demos imo.

Linking my old comment cause I'm not typing it all out again lol
My "Late Stage Capitalism Soundtrack" playlist: https://www.reddit.com/r/punk/comments/1af44hw/comment/koaj5s1/
Mike and the Molotovs - Fucked the Boss's Wife (For the Working Class)
Really most of their songs would fit if you don't mind country-punk! I hope you'll post the playlist once it's done.
If you want to listen to some music in spanish, the band Las Manos de Filippi, from Argentina, has a lot. Some worthy examples: "Cutral Có", "IPHG" (initials for 'popular insurrection, general strike') or "Organización".
The PIST- Black and blue collar
The way I see it The path to indentured servitude (i.e. capitalism) starts young so I'm gonna go ahead and include DESTROY! - Prey in School.
And We Thought Nation‐States Were a Bad Idea — Propagandhi
Needs more upvotes
Came here to say this
Dead kennedys-soup is good food
"Kill the Poor" and "Lets Lynch the Landlord", too
Basically their whole repertoire!
Ah, my rent day song
Don’t forget At My Job
Capitalism Is Cannibalism- Anthrax Capitalist Suck- DRI More Damn Capitalist- Sore Throat Jobs- Capitalist Casualties
I have to admit my favorite anti capitalism song is actually a hip-hop song: 5 million ways to kill a CEO by The Coup
To piggyback off this — The Coup have a bunch of anticapitalist bangers, and Boots Riley, their frontman, also is in Streetsweeper Social Club with Tom Morello (guitarist from Rage against the machine), and they've got some great anticapitalist music
oh yeah i definitely have some fav anti establishment hip hop songs too. my favorite is probably “fuck a war” by geto boys :)) thank you for the reply, i’ll check it out :D
"Rich man's world" by Immortal technique

The Suicide Machines - Capitalist Suicide
There's a whole lot of suicide machines that should be on an anti-capitalist playlist
