The Official Rage Against The Machine thread

you assume far too much based on my dislike for RATM and my poor opinion on tom morello.

hendrix on an acoustic still sounRAB like hendrix. morello without pedals doesn't sound like morello.

you going to make any more assumptions about my tastes based on this comment? continue to ignore how i base my opinions on your boy morello so you can keep crapping on my character?

Oh and Misfits, Renegades was one of the first songs I got into too, 'now renegades are the people, with their own philosophy' man it kicks arse.

*puts it on*
 
wow you're awesome.

i say take away his solos (the only unique element to his style) and you tell me to check out a solo.

i say his solos are out of place in his songs (as in there's a dedicated gap in the flow of the song for bzzt reee bzzzt ree brrrrpppp reee dooooop x4) and you resort to bad spelling. his solo for guitar hero 3 was pretty cool it worked in that context. on the other hand, changing a groove midway through a song for no other reason than forcing one of his solos into a generic radio rock tune IS cheesy.

i imply that if you take away his effect pedals and give him an acoustic that he ceases to be unique and you infer that it's the making of a great guitarist. i don't see how being reliant on something other than a guitar makes someone a great guitarist.

yeah you definitely told me...
 
Rage Against The Machine are great, i love em.


Audioslave is good and all, but im still waiting for them to break up so RATM and Soundgarden get back together. :(
 
all rages albums are polical. zack de la rocha is political, tom morello is political, he went out feeding homeless people. ne one seen the sleep now in the fire, proves the polical point. they should have produced more albums but after battle of la their last political album i feel they had done all they could their message was proved.

You know they went after king
When he spoke out on vietnam
-from wake up- about martin luther king during the vietnam war diverting his attention from the civil rights, and speaking about the war.
even on rages website they were campaigning for the release of a man accused of killing a police man. rages stuff is full of political messages. songs like freedom and township rebellion give an obvious showing of them being political.
 
The last stuff Zach did was on the Farenheit 9/11 compilation, apparently helped out in the track "We Want It All".

He also did some work with Saul Williams. And Trent Reznor but apparently they aren't releasing it cause it wasn't that flash.
