Fuck you I will do what you tell me!
Boyhood hero’s, slayed 🗡️
So cringe lol
I was raised on Rage. I completely agree and yet when one of their songs hits I still want to rip the face off my high school math teacher.
Big let down. System of a Down has taken their place for me
Still good music but yea they sold out hard
rage for the machine
early-mid 1990’s Rage was real & novel
then they got a taste of the good life
but it was a real thing once
O know, but I can sing some of his songs ignoring this shit. The feeling is right, they only are raging the wrong machine.
I didn’t know that, it was always a weird form of propaganda to me as a high schooler but I did enjoy that first album.
You broadcast noise to feel significant. Who cares.
Personally I was never into it. Always hated rap metal / nu metal.
Yep. same on the music side.
But I recognize & genuinely appreciate uniqueness & craftsmanship for what it brings. I think that’s why I have such a hard time connecting with most modern music.
yes, correct, but as a kid they were badass lol 🤘
💥💯💥
And completely fucking silent about 9/11. Fookin’ coonts
Lol.
This is a "separate the art from the artist" situation for me. I still think their first three albums rip, despite whatever nonsense they're up to now.
Some of the best bands are the ones 99% of people have never heard of. But chances are you will disagree with me.
Unlistenable, now.
There is a new generation, "we don´t forget the past" but the future will be build in what kind ?

Turned in to “Fuck you, tell me what to do.”
Thanks for sharing! I didn’t know that she made a video to that song. 🥰
Iyah May is such a talented artist and she deserves much more reach for her work. 🙏
Their music was brilliant but not sure they knew exactly what they were saying.
I mean, those things are not the American dream of the Founders, more so collectivist socialists (fascists, communists), which Americans fought against.
America has drifted towards fascism with a lot of socialist policies implemented, one of which is the central bank.
Regardless, good music but Tom MacDonald and Iyah May appear more coherent and aligned with the American dream of independence.
You support orange man. Don’t show your hand by dipping your toes into intellectual subjects. Your ambiguous “profound” post serve you better.
100% this.
he's so fucking brainwashed he hasn't said one word about trump and his nazi brigade marching the streets of america harassing and killing US citizens, but he is sad about a band saying bad things about his orange god.
brainwashed as fuck.
His cognitive dissonance is astounding.

Sir this is a Wendy’s
You can make this argument about anyone. Humans are imperfect.

Come on, dude. You can't expect them to stay poor forever.
They made good music and got rich out of it.
& Now their situation is the situation of every successful artist.
They become the prisoners of their own success,
Bound to remain in the persona until it doesn't work.
Think of Eminem for example. He is 55 and he comes on stage acting like he's still 25 because that's what people came to see. No one is really interested in the real 55-year-old Eminem. Everyone is here for the 'persona'
Cute
The persona is to rage against the machine tho…
conflation. difference is in hypocrisy of it all. Eminem’s not ‘captured’ and he’s not making living off something he’s not - dude’s just old
cool take.
fake rebels always end up serving the machine.
if that’s your vibe, check out The Orange Pill Jam Project.
bitcoin only. toxic maxi.
if you’re tired of rich commies cosplaying revolution,
we make music for you.
View quoted note →They’ve always been socialists.
It really is a travesty man. Loved them as a kid. Now they rage for the machine… sad times
Well said 👏
I thought this was obvious but the band was against capitalism and capitalisms use of government for imperialism and profits from exploitation. They hated the military industrial complex and oppression. They never said they were against science.
I see you have rage against rage against the machine. That’s deep
Remember when YOU totally misconstrued what they’re about… sounds like a you problem.
Remember when everyone thought Darius Rucker’s name was Hootie? That was some buuullsheeot.
Were they? The guitarist has denied that
Ha! Nice! I was quite impressed with their first LP when it came out - Went to see them live that same year - brought my giant VHS camcorder that I lugged everywhere back then for fun. Their goons took my tape and kicked me out.
🖕😆🖕Haven't listened to those posers ever since.
