Manliftingbanner is a Dutch, communist hardcore punk band. They are best known for their merging of the straight edge lifestyle and radical politics, particularly communism, anti-racism, gay rights, and the DIY ethic.[1][2] The band has been referred to as the first communist-straight edge band.[3] It was originally named Profound.[1] Due to the pretentious nature of their name, it was changed to Manliftingbanner after a Communist propaganda poster.[2]
