I hardly ever listen to Rage, but Killing In the Name is probably my favorite song by them.

If Bullet in the Head was on there I definitely would've voted for that, but I voted for Bulls on Parade anyway.

Check out Without a Face. Evil Empire is so underrated.
And Wind Below has a great opening line: "Flip this capital eclipse/Tha vocal tone got 'em sweatin' their own apocalypse"

Something from the first album; the other two haven't got any good songs anyway. The best song which wasn't on the self titled album sounds like a shit attempt at Led Zeppelin.

Which song are you referring to?

I gotta hear that.

Listen to Vietnow and then listen to The Wanton Song. Elastica were sued by Wire for less.

In fact, when i lsiten to it with this in mind, I think that Tom Morello must have a book of Led Zep chords, which he just re-arranges and put directly on Rage albums. Rage = Led Zep + extra distortion + poor rapper

But then again, Led Zep did the exact same thing to a load of 50's blues songs, and plaigarising other people seems to be a tradition in blues.

LOL you're right, it's basically the same music.

Check it out:

Rage Against the Machine - Vietnow

Led Zeppelin - The Wanton Song

that's too funny. And all Blues is is talking old riffs and expanding on them.

the led zep version didnt have any leftist sentiment anyway so who really cares i dont.

People are ripping off other peoples tunes all the time anyway. Listen to what sugababes did to Gary newman's 'are friends electric'.

Or going further back listen to 'ice ice baby' by vanilla ice and 'under pressure' by david bowie.

I love Calm Like a Bomb, the intro is great. I always blast the "I be walking God like a Dog" part while I drive by my school administration security pigs.

"Killing in the name"... is my favourite song of RATM! This is one of the greatest tracks, I've ever heard!

Gotta love Sleep Now In The Fire.

Shutting down the NYSE for the win!

Why is the music forum always inundated with threads about Rage Against The Machine? Wasn't there a ban on them a while back - I mean I like them as much as the next man (probably a little moreso) but they just don't warrant this many threads.

I fucking love the song War Within a Breath.

One song from Evil Empire? C'mon. That was their best album.

Vietnow is their best song, but I strategic-voted for Bulls on Parade.
