DopeSickGirl Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 My discovery today after digging out Renegades and The Battle Of Los Angeles for the first time in a while.. Is that;Listening to RATM is very nearly orgasmic. They have actually got -the- perfect sound.Amazing.And imagine how fast Timmy C's fingers must move Seriously though; anyone else a huge fan?xDSGx Quote
Calm Like A Bomb Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 I fucking love RATM, a truely amazing band. Quote
ADPT Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 Great music, though I always run Zach's bullshit through a mental filter. Quote
Shearaxl Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 Yep. They're inspiring and there is a lot of emotion in their music, expecially live. Quote
st0n3r Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 Great band! I really dig their music, but I don't like their message. Quote
bax Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 They're genius. Go see them live-they put on an amazing performance. I hope this reunion isn't temporary-would be nice to hear some new music from them. Quote
Turn_It_Up Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 (edited) Incredible band. The debut and Battle of Los Angeles albums are phenominal.Really hope they aren't reuniting for just a tour, but will be hard at work on a new album. Can't wait to see 'em at Alpine Valley later this month.Added: Chris, if you haven't given 'em a thorough listen, check those 2 albums out I mentioned. You can't like heavy, aggressive music and not dig those. I hate rap and I hate overly political music, but those are 2 of my fav albums of all time. They just kick your ass...

JAC185 Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 Love them. Love them. Love them.Seems an incredible energy about their live shows aswell. Quote
FunkyMonk Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 Fuckin' love them! Best party music too BTW, just killer rockin' out tracks.Goddamn Rage kick ass... Quote
highvoltage Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 Great music, though I always run Zach's bullshit through a mental filter. Rage are great. I listen to them when i'm angry. Quote
Ridin' the Nightrain Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 I always found it odd they were signed to a Sony label with their political message. Aside from that, very few bands blend together the number of genres that RATM do with perfection. I'm not as big as them as I was a few years ago, but it's impossible to listen to them and not have a desire to mosh like your life depended on it. I hope I get a chance to see them live. Quote
ADPT Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 Great music, though I always run Zach's bullshit through a mental filter. Rage are great. I listen to them when i'm angry.I think you missed the point. Great music, but I find it hard to take much of what Zach says seriously. So, like I say, I ignore it. Quote

I was laughing because I do the same thing.Is there anyone who actually does take the lyrics seriously? For those that think all the New GNR solos suck the life out of the shows, try watchin' a totally kick ass Rage concert DVD only to have it interrupted by numerous propoganda segments about the Zapatistas. Worse than bein' blue-balled. :xmassrudolph: Edited August 7, 2007 by Turn_It_Up Quote
Dead Flower Posted August 7, 2007 Posted August 7, 2007 My favourite Zach rhyme is "The present curriculum - I put my fist in 'em!". But they're a cool band. I'd love to see 'em live and mosh like an idiot. Quote
