zekterellium:
khar, the lord of the rings was written during the second world war, gandalf was a metaphor for moses and sauron was a metaphor for hitlet. the hobbits represented the working class and the elves represented the upper class, abandoning middle earth (europe) the first chance that they got. while writing the book, j. r. r. tolkien's sons were in the army getting shot at.
so, i can see why it isn't political or anti anything in any way.

I, for one, am in a phase where I find myself tired of every single lyricist who just keeps writing about his or her broken heart, and as such, I find myself gravitating towards bands that do have something political to say, even to the point where I dug out my old Rage Against the Machine albums. In fact, it has gone so far that I am considering just writing a big entry in my Livejournal (of all places) about how people should shut up about their everyday problems, but that would be kind of rude, wouldn't it?
Then again, this is all part of the fact that I am in indignation experiencing a bit of a political rebirth within myself, a development I find most fitting during this coming of legal age; I will have to vote next year, and it is a right, nay, a privilege I intend to use fully.
There are, after all, things that are more important than ourselves.
