@Daniea3 War Pigs is an early example. I know some people have said that it isn't, but Sabbath is clearly criticising war mongering in that song.

@TheReaper3200 This song is based on Tennyson- you even see it in the video

@Daniea3 Ironically, the Trooper has become something of a loyalist/unionist icon in Northern Ireland. You can - or could - see the artwork of Eddie carrying the Union Jack in working class parts of Belfast.... and sometimes see it on the profiles of loyalists online to this day.

@wildeyshere_paulkersey853 Do your own legwork matey. Even better, toddle off and read the poem. If you don't know who Tennyson is, you have some gaping wide holes in your cultural knowledge.
