Who on earth downvoted this masterpiece?

Probably the same people who are mad that RATM got political
(aka media literacy = 0)

Absolutely. Saying βRage against the machine got politicalβ is like saying βwater got wetβ

The fact that every single RATM song is applicable 30 years later has shown that humans are not capable of governing themselves effectively.
They will remain applicable until the evil empire collapses.

I wish Zach de LA Rocha did more stuff
I remember reading interview with some old rock & roll musician and he said something like βpeople keep asking me why Iβm not as rebellious anymore and Iβm like βdude, Iβm 50 and I have kids now. Itβs your generationβs turn to rebelββ. So yeah, Zach is 55 nowβ¦
-
There was just another thread where people were talking about how many Gen Xers have gone full MAGA, but Rage is a quintessential Gen X band. Wtf happened
The Machine started paying peopleβs bills and they thought βWell maybe itβs not so badβ¦β

I mean, he did do that one song with RTJ not that long ago and stuff, I more meant I wish heβd done some solo rap after Rage. Obviously dude had a lot of valuable shit he was getting done and I get why he didnβt, I just like his rap a lot and think it would have been really nice to have more of him doing straight hip hop. Oh well.

Weapons, not food, not homes, not shoes
Not need, just feed the war cannibal animal
I walk the corner to the rubble that used to be a library
Line up to the mind cemetery nowThat verse rocks so hard.
The way he spits out βcannibal animal Iβ

Didnβt he have that one project, one night as a lion or something?

High quality post

I think thereβs an extra chicken in the 2nd line.

Most people arenβt actually rebels, and many of those who are, are just mad that the status quo isnβt fascist enough.

Pretty sure that was just the one EP β¦

Zach did his last album when he was about 30. Sure maybe itβs too late now, but I really want to know what was actually going on with him in the 00s. Some people even suspect three letter agency involvement, and TBH that sounds about as likely as any other explanation.

I think being in a band like RATM had to be really strange. Youβre screaming as loud as you can about rotten system while at the same time getting rich thanks to this system. You know that fame helps you spread your message but at the same time itβs contrary to everything youβre preaching. I wouldnβt be surprised he simply gave up and left.

I actually checked and οΏΌyou may be right.

Is that that song from phineas and ferb?
