If you liked this band the first time you heard it you're gonna get hooked. Listen to Bulls on Parade, Pistol Grip Pump, Mic Check, Testify, Guirrial Radio, Renegades of Funk, or Sleep Now in the Fire. Mic Check is my favorite.
Same. Once my boyfriend went across the street to his friends house so I put on RATM while I was making dinner. He came back and told me he could hear it from across the street, inside the house. Lmfao.
@@mokalux this may be late but they weren't taken down. There were some creative differences between the band members so zack took a hiatus. They are all still on good terms with eachother and tour occasionally
This was the first legit reaction video i remember blowing up. You can just tell this is authentic and not what he expected it to be and I think that is what makes this so great. I just want to tip my hat to this dude, everybody else is just walking in your footsteps.
In today's social context, discovering RATM has gotta feel like "wait... this has been around for years... how is this not playing everywhere, all the time?!"
Actually after 9/11 RATM was banned by clear channel from playing on the radio for being too violent. That's why you don't ever hear it on the radio or really anywhere else. www.kerrang.com/features/here-are-the-164-songs-that-were-banned-from-american-radio-after-9-11/

Sorry yall. I had to mute that eargasm part at 6:18 because that solo has a copyright block on it. I'm trying to keep these videos "forever" so I can look back at it 10yrs from now and it hasn't been taken down.
I think you need some Jinjer in your life. For real. Also before you start listening to them (if you do) they a female lead vocalist. When you hear them you'll know why im telling you this.
Man, a bunch of nuts are dancing to "Rage Against the Machine" in Arizona right now, not getting the lyrics. People are sharing your video in counter balance. Keep up the awesome vibes man!
Yea the people are raging for the machine nowdays, including the ratm.. Well atleast you can quote ratm and tell em f you i wont do what you tell me :D
I used this video to introduce my 16 year old daughter to Rage. I tried to show her a music video but she didn’t “get it”. I remembered this video from over a year ago and showed her your reaction and now my 16 year old is full of all kinds of rage. A year later and this video still brings joy.
When played live, these lyrics have occasionally been changed to: Some of those that burn crosses are the same that hold office (Live at the Grand Olympic Auditorium 2003)
They are so good live. The attitude in the songs is exactly the same on stage. It felt like I was in a field of people about to take on and change the world...then went back to normality.
The reaction to the ending of Killing in the Name is the correct response to one's first time hearing it. I'm glad you had the same reaction as me the first time I heard it.
saw this, went on a "react to rage" marathon for a few hours and then came back here just to say this IS the best reaction to rage against the machine in all youtube

39 here and yeah! I feel you! And to connect to what someone commented earlier... A bad day...this is what me and my neighbours listen to get pumped! 😉
Reading RATM lyrics is basically a PhD in Political Science, and a masters in History. Even if you don't get all the references (as it can be dense), it gives you plenty to look up and "grow on." P.S. I also love that so many got into them for the energetic and funky music, and got a "contact high" of the politics within. I have also met plenty of Rage fans who liked the music, but were ignorant of the lyrics, which contained politics diametrically opposed to their own- like right wing cops or soldiers that bump this music, having no idea that he is calling them out, and calling for everyone to set fire to the institutions that they serve.
I have no trouble with people being against bad fellas like what they are mostly singing about, but its allways too onesided, its like they are saints or something lol But the comments you can see from many of the band members were the last sign for me to stop supporting them. They became the system. I only wish i saw it earlier..
I've seen so many reactions to RATM over the last year - but nobody had a reaction similar to you. Nobody. Nobody had that kind of "wait a second! WAIT A SECOND! DID YOU HEAR THAT?!" reaction. The way the surprise crept onto your face was amazing.
whan i was 16 and heard ratm fiorst time i got same reaction but bigger i jumped so cracy over a flat that when jumping from kitvhen into corridor i hit my head into door-pass top... goood time also i was set politically to fight against hunger, bad police and things.. ratm is band numbe 1 for me of all (and i heard many those times rhcp/fnm/stp/soundgarden and things.. close to it was busta rhymes wds and the coming
My favorite line from these guys: "Set up like a deck of cards, They're sending us to early graves, For all the diamonds They'll use a pair of clubs To beat the spades". Dude's a genius
Yeah, the content owner has asked for that part to be removed. Sad because this guy is literally providing free promotion for RATM, have you seen the number of views! Awesome stuff buddy.
That's because it's from our generation. Awesome band. I first heard them '93. This is not new. The same problems your generation complains about today, we complained, too. Then we all grow up and learn that not all is as it seems. Some problems cannot be solved, others aren't really problems at all, and no problem can be solved by government.
3:10 was a great reaction. Pure and hilarious. When I heard Rage for the first time as a kid I thought I was listening to the greatest thing ever and turns out I was

This album came out when I lacked the emotional and intellectual maturity to truly process it. It is a masterpiece and now that I just scored some Rage tickets I am over the mooon! Had to come re-watch this cause it is a joy to watch someone else so moved by the depth of the lyrics and mastery of the music! Pure gold!
The "oh really?" look on your face during Settle For Nothing when Zack sings "if ignorance is bliss / then knock the smile off my face!" Just perfect, haha
My favourite album. I was 21 in '93 and these guys blew my socks off. Now mid 40s, I still sing along as I go mountain biking and frighten the peasants BULLETINTHEFUCKINGHEAD hahaha
Damn man... that sucks that you had to mute that. This video is probably the greatest reaction video of all time. I have watched this dozens of times. Blows that you had to edit it but it's still fuckin great!
Watched this video a few months ago, I just had to watch it again hahaha. Also, the guitarist for Rage Against the Machine tweeted out a link to this video. Congrats man!
This made me cry the first time I watched it. I wish I could have bottled and preserved my first experience with the pure, unadulterated anger and passion of this album. Watching other people’s inaugural encounter with Zach and Co just brings back so many memories.
Zack was doing Hardcore Punk for years prior to RATM, look up Inside Out, his first band he sung for and their only debut ep "No Spiritual Surrender." his screams and vocals were fucking insane back then.
This is and has always been, hands down, my absolute favorite RATM reaction video. Just really embodies the giddy excitement when you realize what this little mexi-melt latin mixed kid is spitting at you. FIRE. IN YO. BELLY. SON. \m/
52 yr old dude here who has never watched a single reaction video in my life. Going to RATM in May. Holy shit, you made me laugh. You just killed it. You nailed every possible emotion that every RATM fan felt when they first heard this album. Bravo.
"Some Public Enemy metal." Actually there's another version of this band that's it minus the lead singer plus Chuck D called "Prophets of Rage," so you don't know how right you are. Back again... also, this may be the greatest music reaction video ever recorded.
@@seb5542 Yeah, but that's like saying "that's guy Adam Lambert's good, but Freddie Mercury was better." Tough to hold up to the original when it was that great.
Honestly man you have no idea how much I fucking love this video. So many times you see people and they’re like “oh wow that was really good” but you’re genuinely having the time of your life as did I when I discovered them as a 15 year old in 2005. I was just like “what IS this?” It completely changed my outlook on music from that moment
Saw your video making the rounds on Twitter. Gotta say bro, to see your reaction listening to Rage Against the Machine... it warms the cold, bitter embers of my aged heart.
Anotha middle aged white lady that's loved Rage since they arrived. I love watching you loving them. You act just like me. It never gets old. We gotta take the power back!
Just so you know, your joy and enthusiasm is so infectious, I would pay money for a show where you host and get to try new things. Your content is wonderfully honest and heartfelt. I love it. Thank you.
"oooooohooohoohoohoooo....this dude is spitin'"...... totally made my day....!!!! I still react to like that after listening to RATM for like 20 years +.
Great video mate. First discovered RATM when I was a teen in the early 90s. They aren't just a talented group, Zack and co. are a transcendent experience experience. They were the absolute shit to listen to back then. Glad you're enjoying it now :)
This video was suggested as an awesome reaction under another video on Twitter. Dude. This. Is. The. Best. Reaction. Video. Ever. I was cheesin' the whole time at your amazement, excitement etc. So glad you experienced and shared!
I watch these videos as a rock n roll fan but while seeing these rap fans discover music and meaning, I cannot help but think that there's rap music out there that would change my life
Honestly this video is one of my favourite feel good videos ever dude. I haven’t watched this video and not instantly listened to the whole album once yet.
never comment on videos, let alone reaction videos....but seeing your pure joy and exhilaration at hearing this for the first time took me right back to falling in love with this band as a teenager. The hard-hitting repetition of lyrics ignite a sense of defiance from deep within, in a way few bands since have been able to replicate since. Thanks for this, genuinely enjoyed getting a taste of my first RATM experience all over again and seeing their music live on.
Man I've watched this video countless times since it's release. This could honesty be my favorite video on UA-cam. You're reaction is amazing. Keep raging everyone, it's the beats and the lyrics they fear. The rage is relentless.
I had a poster of Rage in my bedroom when I was in high school, recently I haven't listened to them, but your reaction reignited my love for them. Perfect video, love it!
I've been a fan of this band since they first came out. Back then I liked the sound, it was different from anything else at the time. Then really listening to the lyrics, and realizing what RATM was about. Now years later, their music is still so relevant. More so than it was back then. So much craziness in this world, injustices to my fellow humans that should have never happened. But yet they are still happening.
I love that you love it... And i think it's brilliant you so obviously finished your journey and couldn't stop listening. I'm also amused the name "Rage against the machine" didn't clue you in that they're anti establishment :-)
I , pretty much , had the same reaction the first time I heard ”Killing in the name” , which was the first RATM song I heard ever. I was pushing 30 and has grown up on music with some sort of meaning in the lyrics , such as punk , thrash , black metal , grunge and some gangsta rap. Standing at work with the radio on in the background , it felt like someone bitchslapped me awake again , Hahaha.
Watched this several times now... and every single time I call back when I listened to RATM first time myself in some cellar bar whith a bunch of wild looking dudes, jumping up and down. Sweat dropping from the ceiling, raoring beats so incredibly load that I couldn't understand my own words.... Always puts a smile on my face... Everyone who has a sense for this kind of music and a little understanding for why and how one can use this music to spread his opinion around the world should know who Zack de la Rocha is... If you understand that a guitar can do so much more creative sounds than the stuff you know from the radio and that only the guitar for itself can create so specific moods in one particular song should know who Tom Morello is... Thanks for making me remember 😉
Saw this on Open Culture from a Facebook link. Dude... I was grinning all the way through. PERFECT!! I remember hearing Killing in the Name on the radio when I was 17, it had just been released. Same reaction as you. That album coloured my life back then and still does now. This thing you're doing is cool. Subbed. X
When I saw the thumbnail I thought you were Usher ahah Man it's just great to watch you listen to RATM for the first time, I can see you feeling legit goosebumps when Zach starts getting intense. Great vid!
So jealous. I wish I could hear Rage for the first time again.
No kidding, watch reactions of people hearing Holy Wars by Megadeth for the first time. I appreciate what I've know for 25+ years so much more.
Yup..
my first time listening to them is at this very moment, I think I might like this band, do they stay this good through their career?
If you liked this band the first time you heard it you're gonna get hooked. Listen to Bulls on Parade, Pistol Grip Pump, Mic Check, Testify, Guirrial Radio, Renegades of Funk, or Sleep Now in the Fire. Mic Check is my favorite.
Preach. I was in 7th grade, had no idea what the lyrics meant, but man did i know they jammed and they were real. Goosebumps still at 32.
I don't always listen to RATM, but when I do, so do my neighbours.
Same. Once my boyfriend went across the street to his friends house so I put on RATM while I was making dinner. He came back and told me he could hear it from across the street, inside the house. Lmfao.
Fucking A
Not just neighbors but the BLOCK!
This is the most consice explination I've ever heard, that describes how I feel about RATM.
RATM is either on or off right? there's no in-between
This guy arrived at work, set his laptop on fire and pissed on his bosses lunchbox
hahahahahahah
This is still the most legendary of all the reaction videos. The game changer.
This reaction and NolifeShaq's reaction video to Pantera - Domination are the most wholesome ones
I've watched this one at least five times. Not many reactions are this honest and on point. Just wish the sound didn't disappear in the middle.
for real. i love this dude
@@hathspider9763 Not of, but the.
this guy made reaction videos what they are today, straight up.
"This is not an album, this is a movement"
On point
that's why they took them down!

People passing in their cars thinking "There's a dude listening to RATM for the first time"
Every now and then when shit feels hopeless, I come back and watch this. Always puts a smile on my face.
big facts.... seeing others discover music... nothing better, reminds you that you are human
I just searched this out to put a smile on my face.
BEST VIDEO ON UA-cam. SO PURE, SO MUCH LOVE.
Back right now for the same thing
This guy needs to run for office. I'd canvass door to door to have him in Congress...
This is literally watching a man fall in love when he wasnt expecting to...It's a beautiful moment from a beautiful person.
In today's social context, discovering RATM has gotta feel like "wait... this has been around for years... how is this not playing everywhere, all the time?!"
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
Just like the Woodstock crowd, Rage too birthed a generation that opened their eyes.

WTF why would it give you a copyright strike for eargasm?? it's just a word!
Mike Cwir I had to mute the entire solo part. Crazy
Man, a bunch of nuts are dancing to "Rage Against the Machine" in Arizona right now, not getting the lyrics. People are sharing your video in counter balance. Keep up the awesome vibes man!
That's what led me here 😂
Yup!
"Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me... Mom!"
The machine they were angry about was the McDonald's ice cream machine

Some of those that burn crosses are the same that hold office (Live at the Grand Olympic Auditorium 2003)
Those were the original lyrics. Record company must have made them change it. Saw them live many a time before I bought the album and was like WTF?
They are so good live. The attitude in the songs is exactly the same on stage. It felt like I was in a field of people about to take on and change the world...then went back to normality.
What's the alternate? I don't think I've heard a different version
Tommy “work forces” meaning cops
They write killing in the name for Rodney King in 92 and now in 2020 never has change
"Y'all got me listening to some Public Enemy metal man" - I'd say that's pretty spot on haha
Agreed
The reaction to the ending of Killing in the Name is the correct response to one's first time hearing it. I'm glad you had the same reaction as me the first time I heard it.
I think every rage fan had the exact same reaction
And it sure is an amazing sensation listening to their music for the first time and getting those goosebumps
it is IMPOSSIBLE not to feel that way dude!! full body chills
Sophomore year ‘92, English class. Heard this and it really was revolutionary. It was indescribable and changed music for me forever.

I taught college for a short stint and used Rage Against the Machine as an example of modern political prose in my lit class.

"oooooohooohoohoohoooo....this dude is spitin'"...... totally made my day....!!!! I still react to like that after listening to RATM for like 20 years +.
I watch this video from time to time. The joy you experiencing hearing these cats for the first time is priceless.
This band is priceless.
Semper Fi
One of the best reaction to Rage video's and there are many.
Tom Morello is a guitar genius, and I really think the bass player is underrated.
Tim = Tom
Thank you so much for walking me down memory lane. I re-lived hearing this for the first time through you
Great video mate. First discovered RATM when I was a teen in the early 90s. They aren't just a talented group, Zack and co. are a transcendent experience experience. They were the absolute shit to listen to back then. Glad you're enjoying it now :)
When u suddenly become a RATM fan😂😂😂
This video was suggested as an awesome reaction under another video on Twitter. Dude. This. Is. The. Best. Reaction. Video.
Ever. I was cheesin' the whole time at your amazement, excitement etc. So glad you experienced and shared!
I love your facials trying to understand the lyrics of Killing in The Name Of
i grew up listening to ratm but this made me feel like i was hearing it for the first time too. thank you! literally got tears of joy watching this!
I watch these videos as a rock n roll fan but while seeing these rap fans discover music and meaning, I cannot help but think that there's rap music out there that would change my life
This is legit my favourite video on UA-cam. I'm not even a huge RATM fan but I just love watching your reaction.
love the reactions of this dude. and of course : "where you going with that though?"-> "killing in the name of" epic.
Its too bad you had to mute that part, but it's hilarious watching you have that eargasm without sound.
Honestly this video is one of my favourite feel good videos ever dude. I haven’t watched this video and not instantly listened to the whole album once yet.
never comment on videos, let alone reaction videos....but seeing your pure joy and exhilaration at hearing this for the first time took me right back to falling in love with this band as a teenager. The hard-hitting repetition of lyrics ignite a sense of defiance from deep within, in a way few bands since have been able to replicate since.
Thanks for this, genuinely enjoyed getting a taste of my first RATM experience all over again and seeing their music live on.
This reaction is so pure!! RATM - more relevant than ever!
2:17...the moment you know you're a fan...
Man I've watched this video countless times since it's release. This could honesty be my favorite video on UA-cam. You're reaction is amazing. Keep raging everyone, it's the beats and the lyrics they fear. The rage is relentless.
I had a poster of Rage in my bedroom when I was in high school, recently I haven't listened to them, but your reaction reignited my love for them. Perfect video, love it!
I've been a fan of this band since they first came out. Back then I liked the sound, it was different from anything else at the time. Then really listening to the lyrics, and realizing what RATM was about. Now years later, their music is still so relevant. More so than it was back then. So much craziness in this world, injustices to my fellow humans that should have never happened. But yet they are still happening.
I can watch people discover RATM all day... Been raging against the machine for 20 years. we were mad in the 90s too millennials!
The best part is that the video innocently begins with "I'm not going to do what you tell me, I'm going to listen to Rage instead."
Watching this video months back is what got me back into listening to rage.
These strikes are silly,
Keep up the work man, you're awesome to watch.
I love that you love it... And i think it's brilliant you so obviously finished your journey and couldn't stop listening. I'm also amused the name "Rage against the machine" didn't clue you in that they're anti establishment :-)
I , pretty much , had the same reaction the first time I heard ”Killing in the name” , which was the first RATM song I heard ever. I was pushing 30 and has grown up on music with some sort of meaning in the lyrics , such as punk , thrash , black metal , grunge and some gangsta rap. Standing at work with the radio on in the background , it felt like someone bitchslapped me awake again , Hahaha.
This is one of my favorite videos on the whole internet. Thank you!
Your unbridled joy is palpable. I can feel it coming through the internet and head banging right in my face. Thanks for sharing this with us. 😊
i remember the first time i hear take the power back,damn dude i was like ''HOLY SHIT THIS IS INSANE HAHA'' the bassline is crazy good
That is your best react EVER man! I follow you thanks to this video :D
All honesty Rust In Peace was
Thanks for sharing - I sang along the first time I watched this, it's making the rounds on Reddit again and you're still making me smile!!
Watched this several times now... and every single time I call back when I listened to RATM first time myself in some cellar bar whith a bunch of wild looking dudes, jumping up and down. Sweat dropping from the ceiling, raoring beats so incredibly load that I couldn't understand my own words....
Always puts a smile on my face...
Everyone who has a sense for this kind of music and a little understanding for why and how one can use this music to spread his opinion around the world should know who Zack de la Rocha is... If you understand that a guitar can do so much more creative sounds than the stuff you know from the radio and that only the guitar for itself can create so specific moods in one particular song should know who Tom Morello is...
Thanks for making me remember 😉
Haha it's so funny watching your reactions when you get into the music
Saw this on Open Culture from a Facebook link. Dude... I was grinning all the way through. PERFECT!!
I remember hearing Killing in the Name on the radio when I was 17, it had just been released. Same reaction as you.
That album coloured my life back then and still does now.
This thing you're doing is cool. Subbed. X
PARANOOB Thanks Please Share:-)
When I saw the thumbnail I thought you were Usher ahah
Man it's just great to watch you listen to RATM for the first time, I can see you feeling legit goosebumps when Zach starts getting intense. Great vid!
I can't tell you how many times I've listened to Rage and watching him react, makes me get excited too! LOL
He already knows the lyrics lol. Love this
