Rage Against the Machine is a rap metal rock band formed in Los Angeles, California, United States in 1991. The band’s continual members are vocalist Zack De La Rocha, guitarist Tom Morello (who also records as a solo artist under the name “The Nightwatchman”), bassist Tim Commerford and drummer Brad Wilk. Rage Against the Machine are noted for their blend of punk rock, hip hop, heavy metal and funk as well as their revolutionary politics and Socialist lyrics and imagery (including use of the former-USSR Red Army white-outlined star emblem, as well as images of Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara, and the red EZLN star). Rage Against the Machine drew their inspiration from early metal instrumentation, as well as rap acts such as Public Enemy and Afrika Bambaataa. The group’s music is based primarily on de la Rocha’s rhyming styles and powerful stage energy, and Morello’s unorthodox guitar techniques.
Rage Against the Machine released their debut album Rage Against the Machine in 1992, which became a commercial success. Following a slot on the 1993 Lollapalooza, the band did not release a follow-up record until Evil Empire in 1996. The band’s third album The Battle of Los Angeles was released in 1999. During their initial nine year run, they became one of the most popular and influential political bands in music history.
The band released their fourth studio album Renegades in 2000 and broke up shortly afterwards. The band have also released a live album, Live at the Grand Olympic Auditorium.

I know this isn't the place for political debate,and most people are bored with politicsbut i just have say...AIDSeverywhere and Empjori they obviously dont teach politics where you go to school past the level of attaching good or bad to political tags,i.e Anarchy,Socialism bad The American way of doing things good.I am against any imposed Political or Religious system that stifles freedom...But as someone who considers himself a Socialist(just for the simpleminded during the Soviet Communist Dictatorship of Russia and Eastern Europe i along with many on the Left Demonstrated our oppostion )i believe in a World of complete freedom from poverty a more equable share of Wealth,a greener way of doing things,one where our happiness doesn't depend on the exploitation of humans and animals..Obviously thats a simplified version..and the point i am making is this listen careful to what RATM say dont just respond to labels attached to them..

This band goes far beyond liberalism and right into extreme anarcho-socialism. [2] But it's still good music, so I don't give a fuck, even if they are socialist douchebags.
