sonic youth has a lot of cloaked references in their songs. they are not always overtly about a political ruler/movement etc., but they do have some prominent themes that i would argue are political...the no wave they grew out of was political, they have a lot to say about the record industry, they address the myth of the wasted artist, kim writes a lot about issues of gender and sexuality etc.
