Have you ever listened to Body Count? It's a rock band that was led by Ice T. One of their songs was banned in the US. It's called Cop K*ller. I'm not saying Body Count is as good as Rage Against the Machine, but they had some legit lyrics.

My Favorite two interactions from Tom Morello is when fans/trolls suddenly said he was political. the two quotes are " What machine did you think we were raging against?" the other was “One does not have to be an honours grad in political science from Harvard University to recognise the unethical and inhumane nature of this administration but well, I happen to be an honours grad in political science from Harvard University, so I can confirm that for you"

And yes, if we're getting into specifics, they're closer to mutualist than traditional socialist, but I'd argue that socialist is a pretty broad umbrella that mutualist falls under. They've also expressed support for several MLM movements. One I can think of off hand is The Communist Party of Peru, which they gave explicit support for in the video for Bombtrack. I think they mostly support any people's movement, and don't get too hung up on what their specific ideology is. And to me, that's how you build socialism.

I'm a 46 year old white dude who grew up poor from the Baltimore/D.C. area. I had mostly black friends and definitely grew up a hip hop head but started expanding my musical taste when I got to high school. I was exposed to grunge and Pantera. Then Rage dropped their first album my freshman year in 92' and I was hooked. It was like the best of both worlds to me. I would try to expose my friends to Rage but it was a hard sell because of the style of music. Then in 96', my senior year, they dropped Evil Empire. Rocked my world again. I saw them live multiple times. I was all about Rage on the rock side and Wu Tang Clan on the hip hop side so when they toured together in 97' it was like 2 of my worlds colliding. I'll never forget that concert. It was at a pavilion and we bumrushed security to get up close. I ended up standing on top of the first row of seats with a bottle of 151. What a show. What a time to be alive. RIP ODB.

You can tell true Rage fans when you ask what their favorite songs are and this one is in their Top 5. A song that never hit radio waves for reasons, this banger is more or less unknown by the general public and lives on in the hearts and minds of the people who really get into this music. Fun aside, I believe the "Just a quiet, peaceful dance" is a nod to John Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath. The gist is about a migrant camp that the higher ups want shut down, so they hire some people to start a riot. The leaders of the camp watch out for troublemakers and when they find them they quietly escort them out. When the authorities arrive expecting trouble, they find nothing of the sort and are told it's just a quiet, peaceful dance. Been years since I read it so hope I'm not too far off. Grapes of Wrath essentially tells the tale of the struggle of the common folk, in this case migrant workers, against their for-profit driven masters who don't care about them, only what they do for them. Second fun fact, Tom Joad is in Grapes, and RATM does a remake of a Bruce Springsteen song "The Ghost of Tom Joad".

Alright, I’m coming back to comment again after watching the video This is peak Rage imo. Plenty of their songs have deep, powerful lyrics on par with Down Rodeo, but its delivery and instrumentals are perfection. I’m so glad that you got around to listening to it, place it in your top two and could appreciate the lyrics for how phenomenal they are. You mentioned in Calm Like a Bomb that you wanted to know what his political views are, and one line in this song summarizes that up well to me “A thousand years they have the tools, we should be taking them Fuck the G-Ride, I want the machines that are makin em” Zack doesn’t want the products that are sold to the consumer; he wants the means to production, the redistribution of wealth. Fun fact, Tom Morello actually majored in political science. There is an interview you can find on KZfaq with Zack where you can really get an understanding of where he stands within the first few minutes.

I rememebr when this record released and I heard this song for the first time. Jaw Dropped. 1st, "...These people aint seen a brown skin man since their grandparents bought one", 2nd "So make a move to pleade the 5th cuz you cant plead the 1st", These 2 lines resonated and they still do. Can't tell you how many times this cd got played.

Man, without a doubt the best Rage Against the Machine reaction video! I was about 20 years old when I heard this and today, at 53, I still want to hear this sound at full blast!

Youngblood, I play drums in a Rage tribute: bassist is a mid 20s Chinese med student, Matt is 30 and I call him Son of Morello, Nico is on vocals early 40s, Italian brother jumping around like Zach, I turn 57 this year: We play a set and you can’t HELP but get into it. It’s like CHURCH when we’re on point, AND ALL THE LYRICS STILL RESONATE TODAY. Man I’m sitting here at 1am watching you preach… the end of the song is so beautiful. Appreciate you sir, consider me subscribed ✊🏽

The chorus and a lot of the way Zack is rapping on this is a callback to “Pistol Grip Pump” by Level 10.

I cant calculate the damage 9 year old me was responsible for thanks to "Make a move and plead the 5th cuz you cant plead the 1st". One time, someone had broken a window at the neighborhood gas station and they tried to blame it on me because white kids are rare in that part of fayetteville. (I knew who did it and they weren't even white) The gas station owner and the cops pissed me off so much, and my oldest sister's Ratm CD turned me into a little demon. I stole SO MANY bags of doritos, cartons of jungle juice, and bottles of Dr Pepper out of pure spite. The 90's was a wild time lmao Idk how I never got caught.

I'm constantly checking to see if you've done another RATM song. Your reaction to these are the best. I've been waiting for this song specifically and wasn't disappointed. And as much as I want to see you do Rage songs. I'm dying to see you do Weird Al's "White and Nerdy."

9 times outta ten it’s the same dudes who thought they loved rage back in the day (but obvi didn’t ever listen to their lyrics), than lost their sht in 2020 when they got mad rage had “become political.” I follow Tom on twitter & while he’s become something of a cornball, he’s also still showing up. Just saw him giving a free concert at a campus protest.

Bro, your reaction to Rage songs is actually educational for me. Thank you for reacting to what I think is the most important music act in our times. I wish Rate was active right now, we need people speaking truth in the public backed by killer music that gets us pumped.

They were super influential in the rap/metal shit that happened in the 90s. Maybe even the#1 (cause who else was doing that in 1991 ?) Limp Bizkit, Korn Kid Rock, Linkin Park, etc... all got a foothold because of Rage. And they all got bigger at the time. But no one is still listening to their shit and being like "oh....damn. that's real"

I'm a middle aged white drummer. I watch you cuz it's refreshing to see you give these rock songs a chance. I realize that in itself, but baby steps. I mean why wouldn't you listen to rock....? That would be the human in you. People generally like multiple genres of music. I like all kinds. So hats off to ya. Keep doin...
