Thread Name: Songs of Irish rebellion & conflict
Subject: RE: Songs of Irish rebellion & conflict
There's any number of nineteenth century broadsides which rail against the injustices of English imperialism, without descending into the jingoistic f**k the bloody Brits which characterise so many rebel songs.

A good place to start looking would be Robert Zimmerman's Songs of Irish Rebellion. It was republished by Four Courts Press a few years ago.
