The revolution is here, and you need to put in your Revolutionary mix tape to get it going What songs will you use. Oh yeah, and this isn’t some pussy revolution of “love” and “non-violence”. This is the real, bloody thing. For starters, I’d use:
Terrordome - Public Enemy
Voodoo Child - Jimmy Hendrix
Gimme Shelter - Rolling Stones
Street Fighting Man - Rolling Stones
And of course, the big, bad-ass mother-fucker of revolution songs:
Won’t Get Fooled Again - The Who
“Children of the Revolution” as performed by U2
“Der Koniggratzer March”
“Beds are Burning”—Midnight Oil
“I Never Picked Cotton”—Johnny Cash
“I Will be Heard”— Hatebreed
“The Fight Song”— Marilyn Manson
“Kashmir” as performed by the London Philharmonic
“Life is a Lemon”— Meat Loaf
“Motherf_cker”— Beck
What, no Rage Against the Machine?
“VX Gas Attack” – Skinny Puppy
“Carmina Burana” – Carl Orff
“N.W.O.” – Ministry
“Fuck You” – Dean and the Weenies
There are so many Midnight Oil songs that fit… I’ll go with “U.S. Forces”…
Not to nitpick, but isn’t Won’t Get Fooled Again an anti-revolution song?
Technically yes, but still, how many other songs can get people pumped up like Won’t Get Fooled Again?
Working Class Hero - either the original John Lennon version or Marianne Faithfull’s remake
The Who pumps people up to buy a Humvee nowadays. Hardly the soundtrack for bloody revolution.
How about:
“Police Truck”, Dead Kennedys
“F— the Police”, Public Enemy
“Cop Killer”, Ice-T
“Pigs”, Cypress Hill
The Internationale. And not Billy Bragg’s version, either.
it is NOT here.
But wasn’t there a good song by Jefferson Airplane?
Dead Kennedy’s “Kill the Poor” and/or “California Uber Alles”–surprisingly relevant even today.
And no mix tape for the revolution would be complete without some MC5. “Kick out the jams, motherfucker!” The MC5 played on the street during the protests surrounding the 1968 Democratic convention. Talk about your revolutionary bona fides!
Will the revolution be televised?
Ask Gil Scott-Heron, Ilsa
Volunteers – Jefferson Airplane
Maybe it can be on the soundtrack for a militant-apathist revolution? I’d be up for that, but then, why bother? 
White Riot - the Clash
Blues for Ceaucescu (The Only Solution mix) - the Fatima Mansions
To Hell With Poverty - Gang of Four
I heartily second that one.
“We Can Be Together” by Jefferson Airplane.
“Revolution 9” by the Beatles. Might be too abstract, though…
“Plastic People” by Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention, which was meant as a critique of American society but was adopted by Czechoslovakian revolutionaries as their anthem against the USSR.
Let me suggest:
“Get Up, Stand Up” by Bob Marley;
“Fight the Power” by Public Enemy;
“Maggie’s Farm” by Bob Dylan.
