Agree! Even more so now than back then…i was a closet headbanger heavy metal mom now i maryjane with my full grown ass daughter and have blown her mind that i LOVE RATM 🤣😱🚬😶🌫️🙌
RATM is not allowed any lyrics on apple music by Apple. In 2010 they made KITNO the #1 Christmas song in Europe and so they ended up performing a free concert. In 2000 they interrupted the Democratic national convention in DTLA by performing for free across the street. They once shut down WallStreet and were all arested while filming a music video.

@@jamestaylor3805 he’s right unfortunately James, I love their music but they were enforcing vaccine passports at their concerts, hardly sticking it to the man is it
The album version has guest vocals Maynard (Tool/APC/Puscifer), and I've seen live versions where he was just standing awkwardly in front of the drum riser, then just borrows the mic to belt out the bridge, then hands it back to Zach
30 years later and I still listen to this band regularly. Total classic that woke up so many of us in the 90s and beyond. Great reaction video to an iconic song. "All of which are American dreams." Boom.
I love this song but good Lord, this is the grandma pace version. This live version is SO much slower than the original it feels. It kind of doesn't make the impact of the lyrics feel the same as the fast paced original version. 1.15 speed is a little more like it.
Have you heard any of Bodycount? It's ICE-T's band, and they are a similar sound to RATM musically, with ICE-T on vocals. Similiar political themes and sound to RATM, and aggressive instruments which is par for the genre. I recommend: BodyCount - Black Hoodie
Hey I was in a room without a view in 92 and this week of 91 and let me tell you the Rodney King video being released was big and I don't know how everyone wasn't outraged by what they saw but the acquittal was a moment when everybody should have been super pissed and instead it showed how those people who always say just be polite and don't resist preferred to live in a delusion until George Floyd and then a whole bunch of them finally woke up but still there's way too many people who prefer their imaginary reality where the only bad cops are in the past or in movies because they've convinced themselves racism isn't real now and never really was and more police is always the answer... So long as they look like them
Guitar Solos are a big part of RATM and they’re basically just Tom Morello telling his guitar to make crazy sounds nobody else makes with their guitars. He’s truly a master of the instrument
Fun fact, the singer for Tool had guest vocals on the studio version. He sang the the "I've got no patience now So sick of complacence now I've got no patience now So sick of complacence now Sick of, sick of, sick of, sick of you Time has come to pay" part
I just watched several of your RATM react videos. Reminded me why I still love their music and especially after LA riots, it really spoke to me. I'm also reminded how angry Tom's guitar sounds and it's badass!!!!!
You need to listen to Prophets Of Rage - Prophets of Rage or Unfuck the world. Prophets of Rage are a band made from Rage against the Machine, BReal from Cypress Hill and Chuck D from Public Enemy.
This is the most relevant song of our time. The land of the free? Whoever told you that is your ENEMY So sick of complacence now... Time has come to....
Rage has the best live cover of Fuck the Police by NWA that should have a video of it. If not hit me up, I have a great copy of it hahaha love the channel
It's a shame the recording doesn't really pick up the heft of the bass. Morello is a technical whiz with that guitar and creating effects, but they have some great intros and transitions that you really feel from that bass.
I'm not a big hip hop fan, but I always thought there were certain voices that were just made for rapping. Chuck D, Ice Cube, MC A, Snoop and Zack fits right in there.
I`m starting to feeling old. Even in Germany we listened closely back when they came up. This was heavy stuff that times. Ashamingly little has changed
I bought tickets last summer to a festival with RATM and Foo Fighters headlining in May this year. About a month ago RATM dropped out. Crushed. Tho I do love Foo Fighters.
While this is a great performance, I think the early 90’s version wilth Maynard James Keenan taking vocals on the bridge (the ‘no patience for your complacence’ bit…the scream!) is *chef’s kiss* iconic.
Guitar player Tom Murano I think it is based for the drummer we’re in the group Audioslave with Chris Cardell Cornell check it out guitar player is way out of his time he does so much that guitar so many different sounds lead singer tight rock ‘n’ roll and rap
It's 2023, and f*ck all's changed. To get to the fair society RATM and any of us would like to see, it's going to take hundreds of years of incremental changes. If we haven't pushed the button, that is.
You should watch the live version at Mesa Amphitheater in 1997 were Maynard from Tool comes out to sing his verse in this song. Or just listen to the song off the album it has it.
dude, the b0n3r you get every time you hear Rage makes me so so so happy. Thank you for discovering them for the first time so we can revisit our own memories 4:36
I see Tool - Stinkfist on the next in the queue, so I'll just point out that I don't feel as though they employ too many guitar solos, but if you haven't reacted to 7empest yet, please do. I think there's one in there, but it's not the "many" you get here, and that might be more of a sweet spot. 7empest is the song they won their grammy for.
I heard this album when it came out and it made young, teenage me super uncomfortable. It's now one of the few albums from the early 90s that I've never stopped listening to and the lyrics have never stopped being relevant. I do recommend looking up one of their earlier live recordings of this song if you want to see their raw energy (even though the audio for them is rough). They used to burn the house down with their ferocity. There's one with Maynard from Tool joining them onstage (he guested on the studio version as well). The band sounds great in the more recent clip you used, but Zack sounds like he's struggling to breathe and keep up with the band here.
this is a VERY sluggish version of this song... super slow tempo... personally i enjoy it a little faster... but as many have said, this song still stands to this day.
You'll run into a lot of long solos in live music. I've been to shows that have absolutely killer musicians and then you buy an album and all of a sudden it sounds like radio music with no personality. I got dragged to a Rascal Flatts concert by a girlfriend once and it ended up being really good. Live shows bring out the best in performers. Point being, if that's not your thing listen to studio versions.
I absolutely disagree with albums not having personality when compared to a band live. Listening to live music is great, but the studio version is exactly what the band wants the song to sound like, the live performance is like a cover of that ideal version. That's especially true when you're watching a video or listening to a live performance. Recordings of live performances are hardly ever as good as they are live. There are exceptions, of course, but those are pretty rare. Because of that I think listening to the studio version before a live performance when you've never heard a song before is the way to go.
Tom and Zach are anarcho communists and most of their music should be viewed through an anti capitalist lens. This is one of my favorites of theirs. It doesn't have as many historical references as some of their other songs. They don't mince their words in this one. Straight to the point.
The beauty of RAtM is that if you distrust the gov't, you can enjoy rage. I'm fairly conservative in my worldview, but part of that, in it's purest form, is extreme distrust of the federal gov't. So whereas a liberal might identify with more of the social issue aspect, anyone can identify with this band. Rage should appeal to anyone who wants a better world
I have listened to Rage since I was a kid, I love their music but I dont share their same view like I used to as a kid . but I can separate the art from the artist
I would SPECIFICALLY like to see more of this SPECIFIC type of content.
I second this request. Any thirds? Objections?
I love when you do RATM because you actually pay attention to lyrics, and Rage deserves that.
Check put robtv's reaction to RATM
They were in their early 20’s when they wrote this, and the message still stands as strong today. Iconic.
Critiques of the system written in the mid XIXth century are still mostly relevant today, so that's not all that surprising.
Nothing has really changed in our white supremacist capitalist empire since.
Agree! Even more so now than back then…i was a closet headbanger heavy metal mom now i maryjane with my full grown ass daughter and have blown her mind that i LOVE RATM 🤣😱🚬😶🌫️🙌
More so now.
Morello was about 30, as he was a bit older than everyone else, but yeah.
RATM is not allowed any lyrics on apple music by Apple. In 2010 they made KITNO the #1 Christmas song in Europe and so they ended up performing a free concert. In 2000 they interrupted the Democratic national convention in DTLA by performing for free across the street. They once shut down WallStreet and were all arested while filming a music video.
at least they are trying more than some other bands who pretend to be as cool lol
@@jacksmith-vs4ct it's all praise to them. I have them tattooed on my arm. Met Zack about 2 years ago. Super down to earth but also the real deal. Hope I get to see them at some upcoming shows.
What Tom Morello can do with a guitar would make Jimi Hendrix stand amazed.
And that's why Tom is my favorite guitarist of all time.
I bet Jimi would have called it 'beautiful.'
Jimi would have ADORED Tom, I can imagine him with a fat j just grinning as he listens.
Those two could probably do one hell of a jam session.
Can't believe it took you this long to do this song you should've done it back when you were binging RATM
I was like ...huh...you didnt even peek at this?.....lmao.....dang
You heard that right. The crowd was singing the base line
Nice choice. The original had Maynard from tool in it. Great song. Check out “Not gonna work on Maggie’s farm no more” it’s a bob dylan cover.
"Maggie's farm" i know he would have found it from what you said, but thats the title. Great choice though!
"All of which are American dreams", to misquote Al Murray "You don't need to dream if you're awake!" Love RATM, love the reaction.
Or George Carlin. "It's called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it." ✌

They are not really under rated. They are just insufferable hypocrites that advocate for totalitarian governance.

Underrated? Who has ever underrated them?

I would recommend "Without a Face" off their Evil Empire record. Great song that I've never seen anyone react to. Its about immigration.
First time I heard Rage I was about 17 and I just loved the message and his passion for the lyrics...you completely believe everything he's saying!!
Just do every Rage song ever, bro. I cheer when I see you have a new RATM reaction up 🤘🔥
30 years later and I still listen to this band regularly. Total classic that woke up so many of us in the 90s and beyond. Great reaction video to an iconic song. "All of which are American dreams." Boom.
Yayyyy you finally reacted to this song. Wish you'd heard the studio one first tho. Maynard added another layer to the song.
One of my all time favorite bands! I actually have tickets to one of their reunion tour shows next year it’s gonna be epic! 🔥🔥🔥
That makes me peanut butter and jelly.
One of my favorite bands! They never disappoint. All their songs are political. My favorite high energy music. Never boring!
@Sideways G prolly cuz they realize the vaccine wasn’t some weird conspiracy like so many people were making it out to be
I want to watch you interview the band about all of their songs! Like a whole convo about the history and stuff behind the songs! That would be dope!
I love this song but good Lord, this is the grandma pace version. This live version is SO much slower than the original it feels. It kind of doesn't make the impact of the lyrics feel the same as the fast paced original version. 1.15 speed is a little more like it.

Always love seeing ratm reviewed. And seeing everyone's mind get blown.
Commented to soon the original version has Maynard and there’s on with Maynard at the concert Time has come to Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!
This is probably my favourite Song by Ratm
We need RATM now more than ever.
Don't look at their twitters then. They are some of the worst boot licks in entertainment.
What ... #JoKKKeBiden is the most popular President ever ... it's how he got 81 million legal votes "on or around election day"
Darkness by Rage is a deep cut that is from the Crow soundtrack
Such an incredible song
New Millennium Homes, lyric version.
We're living it now.

"Know Your Enemy" is Master Sun Tzu's -first- law of Warfare!!
My favourite RATM song alongside Guerrilla Radio. Just includes every part of what makes them special
The revolutionary brilliance of Rage Against the Machine.
Moving into 2022, still in a room without a view.
Guitar Solos are a big part of RATM and they’re basically just Tom Morello telling his guitar to make crazy sounds nobody else makes with their guitars. He’s truly a master of the instrument
Township Rebellion! Nice reaction as always!
Fun fact, the singer for Tool had guest vocals on the studio version. He sang the the "I've got no patience now
So sick of complacence now
I've got no patience now
So sick of complacence now
Sick of, sick of, sick of, sick of you
Time has come to pay"

what? the land of the free? whoever told you that is your enemy!” 🤘🏻🔥🍻 Bombtrack up next
I just watched several of your RATM react videos. Reminded me why I still love their music and especially after LA riots, it really spoke to me. I'm also reminded how angry Tom's guitar sounds and it's badass!!!!!
On the studio album the bridge part was actually sang by Maynard from Tool. The “I’ve got patience now…….” part.
You should check Testify! It's one of my favorites and trust me it'll be stuck in your head for a while!
You need to listen to Prophets Of Rage - Prophets of Rage or Unfuck the world.
Prophets of Rage are a band made from Rage against the Machine, BReal from Cypress Hill and Chuck D from Public Enemy.
This is the most relevant song of our time. The land of the free? Whoever told you that is your ENEMY

Rage and Maynard love the scream
criminals in action by Zach de la Rocha, the last Emperor and, KRS-ONE. You would be the first to do a reaction video for this song.
Not true I’ve seen at least two different reactions to that song
@@williamswiniuch7527 I'll have to have another look around
I love how you break down the lyrics that i (at a young age) never would have guessed. Its good to hear RATM again
This song had me mobilized in th 90's.
Algorithm brought me here. If you haven’t already please do Sleep Now In the Fire. Song and video are still so insanely prescient today. Even more so.
5:15 This Part is the Part Maynard from Tool sings on the album :)
Rage has the best live cover of Fuck the Police by NWA that should have a video of it. If not hit me up, I have a great copy of it hahaha love the channel
Sleep now in the Fire by RATM next
On the album version "the time has come to fly" is sang by Maynard James Keenan in a cameo appearance.
Pay
Here to say you need to hear darkness by them 👌👌
It's a shame the recording doesn't really pick up the heft of the bass. Morello is a technical whiz with that guitar and creating effects, but they have some great intros and transitions that you really feel from that bass.
I'm not a big hip hop fan, but I always thought there were certain voices that were just made for rapping. Chuck D, Ice Cube, MC A, Snoop and Zack fits right in there.
That’s why he fits in so well with run the jewels
When listening to a band like Rage you need to take time to enjoy Tom's guitar solos
Immortal Technique- 3rd World or Rich Man's World
I`m starting to feeling old. Even in Germany we listened closely back when they came up. This was heavy stuff that times. Ashamingly little has changed
jesus fucking christ Zach is spitting bars for bars! true rebel to the injustices
Still one of my favorite songs from them.

I think you would be interested in Rage's version of The Ghost of Tom Joad by Bruce Springsteen.
I've been waiting for you to get to this song. So good!

Yes, I've been awaiting this. A man with a good intellect about to react to R.A.T.M.
Dude this band RATM are gonna be considered greats for thousands of years
Question everything brothers!
Join the machine to change the machine. Hollering about it won’t get it done.
Heyyy, I was in that crowd, good times
Listen to the studio version with Maynard James Keenan.
I definitely missed the Maynard cameo in the studio version...
I think this was from their free concert in London a few years back, looked like a particularly good performance.
Good guitar solo have rhythm, so if done properly it’s another page n the song. It’s part of it. A melody in a solo is greatest.
Saw these when I was 16 (1992) at the Ritz in Manchester. Got elbowed in the nose
Studio version has maynard appearance bro ..must hear if diving into rage. just a suggestion ..love the reactions though no doubt
