What is your favorite 100% non political "just nice music" music artist? (lemmy.ml)

I'll start. System of a Down.

Recently it seems like some people are JUST NOW realizing that Bring me the horizon is not Christian friendly and I wonder how many other artists can we put into the bag of "Wait, they were political this whole time?"

Mate are you seriously saying System of a Down is a non political music act

What do you mean? They're just songs about nice things, like bringing your own beer to a party, jumping on a pogo stick and shimmying until the break of dawn, yeah. Oh, and cocaine. Lots of cocaine.

I like grabbing my brush and doing a little makeup in the morning to start the day

Not wanting to die shouldn't be a matter of politics.

Edit: I'm dead serious too. Singing about culture, tradition, and real heroes for humanity fall more inline with folklore style singing. Which is a tier above politics. Don't ever diminish an artitsts work with the disgusting political label. And the "politics" of a certain genocidal nation are certainly debatable too.
