	Rambles: David Rovics, Return (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Rovics never oversimplifies his message, or talks down to the audience.
		Instead, he manages to finesse the phrase "nonaggression treaty" into a catchy beat or turn a thoughtful discussion of social motivations into a driving chorus that would be popular for any social crusader.
		This isn't an America-hating album; Rovics' pride in the country and faith in its citizenry comes through with almost painful intensity in the opening "After the Revolution" and several songs honoring those who have stood for varied causes.

	punkrockacademy.com - Reviews > David Rovics
		It may sound odd to hear that I can't think of a single album I've reviewed for this issue which is more punk than this one, especially considering that this is one person with an acoustic guitar and some bitter, scabrous humor.
		Rovics, a musician who I wasn't familiar with, works in a similar vein, although his songs are far more overt and really don't require any parsing at all.
		while Rovics isn't pulling any punches, it's because he's using these hard-hitting songs to help shape a better future and, as sad as it is to say, it's highly unlikely that such a future can be built without a brawl or two.

		Rovic's singing is perhaps reminiscent of Steve Goodman (of "City of New Orleans" fame); his guitar playing is perfect for his messages.
		Rovics' recordings are not on one of the huge corporate labels, and for good reason: Big corporations don't care if you to hear these words or think independently.
