I saw Rage live rn the 90's. Zach stopped the show when he saw a girl in the audience being hasseled and touched by guys. He literally lectured the shit out of us about how a woman should be able to go to a show and have fun without worryrng about her bodily integrity. He was really angry. As a young woman myself, I never had seen a guy, much less a rock star, talk about such a thing. Rock has always been a tough space for girls, and if you wanted to hang you just had to take it. He was way ahead of his time and he helped wake me the hell up.
Yep, the 90s were something different, no flashy influencers or idiotic trends for ad placement and money, just action, doing the right thing in the moment for no other reason than doing the right thing. Kurt Cobain also did something similar, stopping the concert to get security to kick a guy out for groping a woman.
Kurt did the same, there is a video out there. It makes me so proud and show that we were never about violence.
That's my dude.
@@ITHYANDEL Miss him. His music legacy is amazing. Stand up guy.
A lot of guys from the 90s were like that, feminists and feminist allies.
That’s awesome!! And you know where he got it from? Ian MacKaye and the DC hardcore (harDCore) bands he grew up listening to. Check out the Fugazi song “Suggestion” when you get a chance. Ian wrote it after his female friend was sexually harassed. He was livid, but he also wanted to see things from her perspective as a woman who experienced this. It’s one of my favorite Fugazi songs. Men weren’t writing songs like this in the 80s, masculine hard rock songs that sought to understand and respectfully dissect a woman’s experience. This scene was (and still is) so ethical and moral in the best ways, such as treating all genders respectfully and equally, being anti-racist and anti-homophobic, standing for truth and justice in America and around the world, raising money for important social and political causes at their concerts, etc. and of course, like all the great punk bands, questioning authority and using music as a catalyst for social change. Of course, we women don’t need men to defend us all the time, although the support is definitely much appreciated. But in the 90s, we also had great riotgrrrl bands such as Bikini Kill who taught us girls to “get to the front” of the stage if we wanted and stake our claim in the pit. They also taught us to have each other’s backs as women. I am so grateful to amazing radical feminist punks like Kathleen Hanna who taught me how to stand up for myself and keep my integrity (and femininity) while doing it.
As you know, they were scary for a lot of the country because they were talking about things no one else was. This was the era where government was about censoring music, video games, and movies. Rage was truly ahead of their time. Sadly, the issues they were on about 30 years ago are still problems.
The parental advisory stickers made great advertisements for the kids
That was the era? Everything they put in place then still exists today. And now we’re back to banning books.
@@bobmikecong - That's what advised me to buy a majority of my albums! *laughs*
and after 9/11 no radio station would touch them w/a ten foot pole, for a loong time
@@catwilliams7538 Hahaaaaa, right???
Mission accomplished! Rage was inducted into the rock & roll HOF on November 4th, 2023, presented to them by Ice-T
In 2009 thousands of us got this song to the number 1 spot at Christmas in the UK in protest over the commercialisation of music. To thank the public, the band put on a free show in London in 2010, amazing day :)
Yep, I bought it then, do you remember the BBC Radio 2 live version too?
Where they censored the first few verses of the outro, but then, inevitably started screaming "F**k you I won't do what you tell me!" live!
They must have known that was coming!! 🤣
Ohhh he should react to that performance- it's is so lit! 🔥
Epic
@@JenSell1626 They didn’t. They banned the video because of it’s violent imagery, as did RTÈ, the national broadcaster of the Republic of Ireland for the same reason. They played the song all the time in their various radio stations.
Long story short, the people loved it, but the critics hated it. That's why it didn't hit the charts.
I actually introduce my students (I teach college history) to this song every chance I get...I use it to explain the Rodney King beating and the LA Riots (because that's what the song is about) and Systemic Racism and Police Brutality. Tom Morello is a Treasure and I love him and RATM!
I hope you teach them about the guy on the shirt Che Guevara.
He was a maniacal murderer.
All the things you pointed are a minority of issues in this country and not as widespread as it's being made to be.
There is a judicial system problem above anything else that can be discussed, way above policing, that us more about power & control than race (the scapegoat distraction).
But they want to distract you with their underlings, taking the focus away from the masters themselves & root problems.
Based history professor.
then i bet you're the type of teacher they'll remember in 30 years. ~tips hat~
Do you also use Sublime _April 26th, 1992_ with your students?
YES. YOU ARE AWESOME.
RATM did an interview and live performance of "Killing in the Name" for UK radio, before they went on air they asked them to not say the "F" word and just keep it as "I won't do what you tell me" and Zack obliged... for the part where the music builds up and then when the music ramps up he yelled loudly while holding a middle finger "FU*K YOU I WON'T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME"
You could hear the panicked hosts say "cut it out" in the background 😂
I love this story! They lyric they're trying to make them censor is literally "Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me." What on earth did they think would happen?! lol!
@@irisblue2332 if you haven't seen it, the video is available in UA-cam, just search RATM UK radio
Loved this moment!
It amazes me that they thought a band like that would be willing to censor themselves, with Zack's lyrics?
@@SRHtheHedgehogthey didn't though. They're Brits. It's about plausible deniability. They say "please be nice. The BBC doesn't allow cussing". The artist says, "ok". Everyone did what is expected from them.
The guy in the editing booth surely knew what will happen and had his finger on the button. They were probably even thinking, "how many can we let slip..."
Dude is living in one big ass bruh moment over RATM, and I'm here for it.
I'm an Australian, i saw them live in 1996 when i was 17. Changed my whole life. To this day i take it as a privilege to have seen them perform.
Saw them in '95. It was amazing! First concert ever and it was EPIC!!!!
i was at Lollapalooza 1993, Nashville, TN. Rage opened the show on the mainstage, no one knew who they were. They absolutely destroyed the place, then, at the end of their set, out of nowhere, Zach says "this is for the local PD" then proceeds to flip off a local cop at the foot of the stage, and they did their version of Fuck the Police (NWA) Zach holding the bird in the cops face the whole time, i was an immediate fan for life.
Amazing show, and i got to see them bring the energy before anyone knew who they were.
They also made an appearance on the 2nd stage at the 1992 Lollapalooza at Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre in Orange County, CA. I was there registering young voters for the 1992 US Presidential election and Senate campaigns for California. In between acts, they brought reps from each of the volunteer orgs up onto the stage to pitch their cause to the audience. I was fortunate enough to be brought up right as Rage was getting their set ready. I ended leading a chant of "Fuck Bush!" on repeat with the band members, including Zack chipping in as well. I'll never forget it. One of the most incredible moments of my life.
They are the source!
That's cause it's totally underground the powers that be were against them
1997 RATM went on tour with the Wu Tang Clan. Can you imagine that lineup?!?!
The day I was supposed to go to the concert in Boston, during a morning talk show they announced that Zack de la Rocha had sprained his ankle and that the concert was canceled. I came to find out a day later that they still went on with the show, and Zack sang while sitting on a stool. They even had the show in a light rain. I was soooo pissed.
I saw that show in Dayton Ohio in 97, it was INCREDIBLE!!!!
He sprains his ankles alot, huh? I would've bet that you were talking about missing that concert in 2022, not 1997.
I went to the Hartford CT show and it was a sick show! Craziest concert I’ve ever been at. Wu Tang had a full line up including ODB…
@@ami3627 25 years 😂
I went to this concert in Minneapolis and Wu Tang canceled! I was so upset. Instead we got Atari Teenage Riot.
You’re just dipping your toes in, you will not find a bad song from them! I’m so excited to see more Rage reactions from you!
Editing to add you ALWAYS want lyrics up for Rage, you will miss too much without them. They rock hard af and will teach you more than a history class in the US.
Maaan...let me tell you, Im an older cat, I was born in 1974, which means I graduated high school in 1992. Just for reference..Metallicas Black album, Guns and Roses Use your Illusion I an II, Perl Jam: Ten, Red Hot Chili Peppers: Blood Sugar Sex Magic, Sound Garden: Badmotorfinger, and Nirvanas Nevermind all came out within 44 days of each other in 1991...and Rage Against the Machine released their first album (the one this song is on) in December of 1991, and I know their are sooo many more, those are just the ones off of the top of my head. It was a good time to be alive!!
most underrated band of the 90s. Each and every song had some serious never talked about society issue... they were so anti corporate
I was in my 30's when RAGE came on the scene. I was busy being a father and pretty much lost touch with music at that time. Fast forward to me at 55 yrs old and I come across RAGE on youtube. First time paying any attention and it was this song. They are in my top 10 bands of all time now. This song appears on every single playlist I have. They are on shelf with very few other artists... the top shelf.
Few things make me smile as much as watching someone realize the pure epic raw talent of Rage. Just wait til you start digging into their message.
I saw RATM at Lollapalooza 95 & damn near died in the mosh pit .... SO FUCKING WORTH IT!!!!! Makes my ❤ full to see the youngsters enjoying what myself & so many others were lucky enough to grow up on 😊 Keep up the good work young man 💯
An atheist in Alabama? Might as well identify as a unicorn. LOL! In all seriousness, I hope you have a solid community around you to keep you sane. 👍
Was in that same mosh pit. Good times, good times.
That Lollapalooza was the best band line-up EVER!
So wish I’d made it to that one, I went to Lollapalooza ‘94 and it was awesome! I was one of the teenage girls who would jump in the mosh pit too. (So happy to be able to say I crowd-surfed at a Pearl Jam concert in ‘92, age 17.) I’ve never gotten hurt, but I did have a ring pulled off my finger when it got sandwiched between two people; good thing it wasn’t very valuable, I wasn’t gonna go looking for it! 😂
this was my mom and step dad's first official date xD, my very sheltered mother was not having Rage OR the mosh pits
When you do rage you should have the lyrics up somewhere, those dudes had a lot to say. You haven't even scratched the surface this band's depth. And I'm jealous that you get to do it for the first time. They're bunch of real cats. True artists and a thought-provoking band
There comes a time in every music react series when they get to Killing in the Name, and it *always* delivers.
I love how Zach is just repeating a few lines but each one is different in how he says it. Such a unique style.
So when this album came out (1992) the world was OBSESSED with grunge music from Seattle, so a lot of eyes / focus was on bands like Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, and Pearl Jam. Also, 1992 is the year Dr. Dre's The Chronic" go released, so a lot of huge records took up a lot of space around this time. RATM's debut album didn't hit a million records sold in the US until 1996 (3-million world wide. Funny enough this is the same year their second album, Evil Empire, was released which did chart #1).
Tools first ep dropped in 92 as well. hell of a year for music.
A little earlier Body Counts song Cop-Killer was also inspired by the Rodney King Riots. I remember I was 16 as a guest student in an high school in L.A. and the discussion about the song was all over the media. I guess RATM were just a tiny bit late.
More Rage please 🙂
“Sleep Now in the Fire”, the official hd version where they played live on Wall Street is great.
70's child here...and I grew up with this type of music, protest music. I was a punk as a teenager...and when RATM hit, I was all in.
When you want every single person in a stadium to be jumping up and down at once. This is the song to play. Most epic intense crowd I ever experienced followed closely behind by The Prodigy believe it or not.
I believe it man, not sure if I ever saw RATM, that's how it was back in the day, but my word, I have seen the Prodigy more than once and every time it was mental, absolutely off the chart.
Agreed! THEY BELONG IN THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME!
They were inducted in May of this year (2023).
in 1992 i was 13. I bought the album on cassette. I had all kinds of friends. Hiphop kids, punk kids, metal kids, etc. All of them had this album.
I got grounded for a month for coming home late from their concert in 98 in Dallas. I'd do nothing different if I could do it again. I jumped around in my room for a month and it's what I'm doing now at 42. Haha
Just do the entire debut album honestly. It was life changing for me when it came out in 92. It goes hard 🔥🤘🏼
Ratm first album was to raw for radio air play. They were mainly underground. They didn't have commercial success until bulls on parade. But they had a huge following just by word of mouth. They were on the cover of Time magazine. Tltled theost dangerous band in America. Due to there influence on free thinkers
They’re FIRE because they’re TRUTH! RATM came out in ‘91.
As a white kid from the 90's, it was Beastie Boys, RATM, and Sir Mix-a-lot who got me interested in rap. They were truly pioneers in their time.
I picked up Rage's first album in 1998. Unfortunately never caught them live back in the day.
[They are one of those bands that became famous through the word of mouth. They blew up when they appeared on the matrix soundtrack. ]
Evil Empire is the blow up stage charted at #1 in the US when it debuted.
@@jeffreydunlap9118 [Yes. But that was on the rock charts.]
Since you brought up Rodney King, another totally unrelated band you might like is Sublime. It's a softer groove, but they are great! The song April 29, 1992 in particular. Also based on the Rodney King situation. Some of the best bass lines ever.
Not just April 29,1992 but so many more songs by sublime are great!
This song is 30 years old and that kid acts as if this were the early 2000s. Like, goddamn, that is ages apart.
Second this.
Fistfull of Steel (Live), Bullet to the Head (Live), Down Rodeo, all 🔥
The early 90”s were a weird/ awesome time for music- the end of hair metal, the rise of grunge and hardcore rap/ hip hop, the 1st boy bands , then these pioneers of my metal (tool rage etc), there was just so much coming out that it’s not surprising that this song didn’t chart. Also Michael Jackson was making million dollar videos, which upcoming bands couldn’t compete with. Nirvana got the dude from people s court for in bloom, and they thought it was the greatest score ever!
Well, they're in the Hall of Fame now as of May 4th, 2023!
Loved your reaction! You should definitely watch it again with the lyrics. It’s pretty profound, and very timely. This song is so incredibly relevant today.
This album was actually early 1990s and largely a reaction to the Reagan years and the rise of neoliberalism, but your point stands about the the 1990s. I was 15 in 1990, so obviously the decade shines strong for me. I feel the Western world changed with 9/11 and the response to it, which saw a lot of the hope of the 90s evaporate. Then, the economic collapse in 2008 exacerbated this, and we are still living with the effects of it today. The 2000s have so far seen an increasing conservatism and eroding of the rights that people fought so hard for. That upward trajectory of progress that many of us thought (or hoped) would keep going has faltered and stalled and even started to tumble.
Thank you for articulating my thoughts so precisely! The Machine is winning and as someone who grew up in the 80’s/90’s, it’s so sad to see. The commercialisation of the underground culminating in the Woodstock disaster then 9/11 killed all impetus of the cultural revolution that bands like Rage and system could have led.
The world is reverting to far right authoritarianism and it’s pretty frightening - hopefully someone starts pushing against the pendulum again.
Freakin love them!! Their message is so strong and powerful and still needed today sadly. I highly recommend you still watching that live version you were about to cause bomb AF!
I was there, it was alternative, not pop and before social media and internet to spread music, it mostly went by word of mouth. Everyone in my friend group listened to them, they were very popular in the 90s for teenagers, particularly rebellious ones who shared political views and more so with the Mexican crowd, probably because the lead singer is Mexican American like us.
So happy to see RATM - do Down Rodeo next!!!
1992 was my first year in university. i am from canada, so i am not sure about the US, but it was absolutely huge in canada...the record, and the singles, especially "killing in the name" and "freedom".
there was a lot of experimentation with rap and metal prior to their coming on to the music scene, but rage was the first to do it best, and i truly think no one has come close since. they are the greatest.
edit: they did perform at woodstock 99, and tim set fire to an american flag on one of the amp stacks. i seem to recall that getting quite a bit of attention back then.
killing in the name and bombtrack got a lot of radio airplay when they came out, and the album did well, made it to 43 on the album charts. But it was such a genre bending record that it didn't get the recognition it deserved at the time. I went to a Rock for Choice concert in 1993 where they played and I remember at the time that I had definitely heard those songs on KROQ in Los Angeles, but not a lot else. I went to the show to see a different band, but Rage absolutely destroyed every other performance. Their entire set was cranked up to 11 and by the time it was over the whole crowd was exhausted from moshing and the amount of sheer energy that was put out! One of the best live performances I have ever seen.
This isn't all that accurate. I was a sophomore in HS in '92 in WI and this album was straight up word of mouth and tape trading. No radio airplay, no label support, it was all just kids passing it around and just telling each other "you gotta hear this band" for close to a year until they blew the doors off Lollapalooza in '93 as one of the lower cards. After that Killing in the Name got a radio edit that got pretty heavy radio play and their album sales finally started to take off. And it's just kept consistently selling for decades ever since. What was wild is their next album, Evil Empire, debuted at #1and it sold more copies in its first week than their debut did in its first year.
I saw these guys lead off Lolapalooza 93 with complete and total aggression. Brad the drummer played with his back to the audience!!! Congratulations 2023 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE!!! Tom Morello gave the speech of the night! They were inducted by the legendary Ice-T.
Dude, punching that mic is EXACTLY how it makes you feel, they hit so hard.
Gotta do Down Rodeo next. I promise it won't disappoint! Great reacts bro! ✌️🤟
Every rage song is a masterpiece. Down rodeo....they changed my life.
You got an old soul. Wish you could've experienced losing yourself at a concert without worrying about phones recording you. Very free feeling.
We're wearing headphones, why aren't you? You're missing out on all the juicy bits!
More Rage please!!! Next I’d love to see you react to Down Rodeo (lyric video). It has, in my opinion, some of the most important lyrics ever written.
Following your channel now just for Rage reactions.
Rage is being inducted into the hall of fame this year!
Head's up: 6 days ago (at the time of this comment) they announced they're going to be inducted - finally - in the hall of fame!
Rage is one of the most under rated artists in the history of music. the words said and the bombs dropped are epic
Sleep Now in the Fire is my favorite by them. ❤❤❤
I was there for Woodstock 99, so was RATM. It was a memorable experience. Just saw RATM again last summer with my son, who is also a big fan, and it was one of the best shows ever.
Today it should be "Most of those that work forces, protect those that burn crosses"
Love them so much! Their passion is unmatched.
I saw them open for the Beastie Boys in 2000, I think, in Miami. It was an epic show. Rage has a way of hyping up an audience (whether you like them or not), and to amp them up for the Beasties was off the hook.
I saw Rage at Lollapalooza ‘93 at Irwindale. They were the first band on the main stage. There were only about 150-200 people there because no one really knew who they were yet. They were a local band still. I was at the front of the stage losing my mind! Brad Wilk (drummer) had his drum set turned backwards away from the crowd. It was incredible!
It was massive. Huge here in Canada. Look at the album sales
Rage got big in my area around 95’ 96’. And at that time very underground. very underground. They got some airplay but were very censored. They are the very definition of a force that cannot be stopped. Good stuff.
I flew from California to Chicago to see Rage Against the Machine in 2022🙌🏽.
This came out in like 1992.
Rage Against the Machine was a fucking revelation when they hit the music scene.
YES SIR, I concur with your assessment COMPLETELY!
I just subbed to you yesterday!
I’m excited by you getting hyped about music that i’ve listened to since i was 13-14 yrs old (i’m 43 now & tool korn RATM…found them early 90’s)
i love it!
You get it...the pure diversity and power of this era is unmatched.
Darkness of Greed by RATM is a great song that only appeared on a movie soundtrack so it gets a lot fewer reactions than their other songs.
One of my all time favorites.
Off The Crow soundtrack, I believe that was Brandon Lee's last movie. The Cure also had a fire song on that movie.
@@Glyphmorph That’s right!!
@@wheatthicks
I'm just going to link those because I live for people expanding their music libraries...

They are being inducted into the rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame this year finally
Rage Against the Machine was inducted into the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame in May of this year (2023).
I was a junior in high school in 92, every other kid in school had this album. they were huge
I really wish I could convey the feeling of being at a show like that back then. Not just Rage, but countless other bands from the hip-hop/hardcore/punk rock scenes conveyed these messages raw and unhedged. And we were going completely bonkers to it - basically beating each other up in perfect consent without leaving any serious wounds.
🎉subscribed 🤘 i love the rawness
The Body of Rock, Mind of Rap, And Sprit of Punk. The following that is RATM.
It rocked in 92. At the same time as the band follow for now. Evil empire was hitting on All of the Denon pull out radios and bazooka base tubes in the trunk!!
I saw rage against the machine open up for U2, on their Pop Mart tour. I saw them at Jack Murphy stadium which ended up being Qualcomm stadium in San Diego California and let me tell you what an amazing show that was my friend. You too was trying to break a Guinness book world record of having more power running through their system for a single concert than anyone else they had 12 million Watts of speakers going at the same time and rage against machine got to play on that could you imagine that bassist and Morello on that type of machinery dude the speakers were stacked almost as high as the stadium was monitors so big you couldn't even believe it I will never forget that concert as long as I live
This whole first album is epic!
Dude. You’re filling my niche need to see rap fans react to how bad ass RATM is!!! ❤❤❤❤
check out some of their live performances! do killing in the name live 1993 :)
Been one of my favorite bands since 1992
They are straight raw and truthful ❤
I saw Rage and WuTang in the 90s and it was the most lit thing ever. Ppl were burning flags and bras and going crazy. It was the best. ❤❤❤✊✊🏻✊🏽✊🏿✊
You need to do the Live at Finsbury Park london version of this Actualli,the whole disc is great Reall great story about the show! Best,wildest audience EVER!
Love you young brother. Preciate your honesty.
My friend first introduced them to me with their self-titled album and the words, "Pretty strong words for a white boy." He was right and I've never looked back.
The lyrics are so important.
Imagine being 9 years old, like I was at the time of this song’s release, and my parents furiously checking my book bag to make sure I didn’t bring home a RATM cassette tape. That’s right, I said cassette tape. I still got my grubby little mitts on it anyhow. Tell a rebellious child no and see how it goes.
Remember in 92 the internet was new. You could hear a song on the radio and not catch the name of the artist. Also parents didn't want to buy their kids an album with so much profanity. It was censored on the radio of course.
Great reaction. Keep going!
It did preform great just back when it came out it was punk, metal heads, skateboarders LOVED Rage just didn't get the MTV and radio play but we were buying them and loving it. Pantara also
Wake Up, Know Your Enemy, Take the Power Back, Sleep Now in the Fire, Down Rodeo, Testify, etc. 🤘
420th like! Had to sub for that!
Start from the beginning. Bombtrack.
Bullet In the Head (live 1993)
Epic!
Best part of this song is they played it live on BBC and were requested to change the lyrics. They played the original and got yanked off air. LOL
I am so proud of you expanding your music tastes, but it is so important to dig into the words and the messages they are representing... soooo important!
Political force to be reckoned with...powers that be are censorship... and ppl wonder why there are so many conspiracy theorists. One of those things that make you go...🤔🤔🤔🤫🫣🫢
Your reaction is priceless! Thumbs up, brother. Or should I say MIDDLE FINGERS OUT!!!!!!
this it s the masterpiece from them ,i group with them im born in 75.tanks again four your reaction.RESPECT
You HAVE TO listen to Down Rodeo. But you GOTTA pull up the lyrics for that one. It’s gonna blow your mind.
Down Rodeo is surely most anticipated now :) but seriously, the whole self-titled album is fire 🔥 hope you react to some Sabaton soon too! Panzerkampf or Night Witches or Bismarck:)
Thank you!!!!
