Skinhead Music

Skrewdriver is a well known racist band in the skinhead subculture. Not to be confused with “traditional skinheads” versus “neo-nazi skinheads”. Their songs typically preach white pride, hate, and violence. Although it is not wrong to be proud of being white, the use of hate and violence is frowned upon in society. It is a way to encourage white youth to “stand up”. Although it is a form of propaganda, it is a form of art through music. Collaborations and montages of videos with white power music is an alternative way the music is propagandized as the video seen here. The video depicts a race riot in Australia in reaction to people of middle-eastern descent attacking locals at the beach. The way the video is put together is an art form that creates a sense of unity to rise against the opposition.
