Fist full of steel could be the mic that amplifies his or our voice that could be used as a weapon or a actual weapon in my opinion.
I tend to think of it more as the mic, but yeah, could be either.
"potentially, specifically" :D
I thought it was down the line of holding a gun tightly, the "steel" being a gun, only because the lyrics later "44 full of bullets" the 44 being a magnum.
Ill totally add that Zach has stated many times his preference to the microphone over violence
Like he said in Ju$t "But the breath in me is weaponry"
You hit the nail on the head. But most suicidal weapons (knives, guns, syringes) are all made of steel as well. It’s a super clever play on words 👊🏻
That whole CD was quality from start to end.
I still think it's the best debut album ever personally
Correction, is quality. Its still there fella!
I had it on cassette tape
Facts
It is without doubt a call to action that we as a people not just this nation but the people that never had a chance and we have now missed it.
I love how you break down all the RaTM songs. I learn something every time. I like this specific type of content 👍
I too like this specific type of content
I'm glad we all specifically enjoy this specific type of content, lads.
Man, Zack had this look on his face like "I'm gonna kill y'all for being complicit!" LOL
scary
Zac always had a look on his face that said
“Listen to me mother fucker! What I am saying makes me angry as hell and I don’t know why you cunts aren’t as pissed off as I am”
Tom Morello writes some of the greatest riffs of all time.
always thought this one was their heaviest. cant really thing of anything else
Words are the weapons. Steel is the mic. He cuts with his words like a weapon. Definitely a double meaning (double entendre I think)
Double Entendre is french for heard twice.. It's anglicized to mean two meanings. So yes double entendre is correct here :)
I see loads of Sleep Now in the Fire requests, do the music video rather than the live performance as the video is a statement in and of itself, directed by Micheal Moore
I second this sentiment... Also sleep now in the fire is their greatest song in my humble opinion...
“Calm Like A Bomb” and “Born of A Broken Man” have always been a couple of my RATM favorites
Man, I've been listening to Rage since I was like 10 or something. What I find beautiful about them is that the older I get the more nuance I am able to glean from their message. What began as angst and anger toward... well whatever (as kids can be) has informed much of my moral compass. Every time you peel back a layer it's just as dense, meaningful and true as the previous. So long as we hate each other and not the system which asks us to do so, Rage will always be relevant. Forever thankful not only to have them in my life now, but to have had them with me as I've grown. Fuck yeah. Go Rage.
You should check out “Voice of the Voiceless” and “Township Rebellion”
Voice of the Voiceless is an amazing song. No other band wrote songs about Mumia, sadly.
Now I gotta go listen to Township Rebellion right now. That song gets me so hyped up. Makes me feel like a teenage who felt something again.
He has to checkout Township Rebellion for sure
Township rebellion gets so slept on. It’s one of my favorite rage songs.
Rage Against the Machine's "Know Your Enemy" should be your next song if you've yet to check it out...
He has I believe
@@williamswiniuch7527 couldn't find it anywhere on his channel and it's a shame because its one of their hardest hitters as far as raging against the machine goes.
We need more Rage reactions from you bro
He often uses the raised fist to represent his active resistance to the complicity to atrocities intrinsic in our society. His fist full of Steele could be describing the strength of his resolve to rebel, as well as describing the nature of his rebellion, i.e. spoken poetry through a microphone.
Zack De La Rocha is maybe the most underrated lyricist ever
I saw them in 98’ with Wu Tang Clan! Best concert ever and I’m a metal guy.
I always thought Fistful of Steel usually refers to a gun whereas he’s saying that his fistful of steel or weapon is his microphone. You can do cutting with the microphone as in his words are cutting.
It's time to check out Jane's Addiction - Three Days! You're doing a great job sir.
But do Jane's concert from Hammerstein ballroom 1997; their musical powers were still awesome. The Milan concert has some great songs as well, but it's not as long
I've always interpretted 'fistful of steel' as the mic, but it is lyrically brilliant enough that it could be open to other meanings. Likewise, as for 'let me do the cutting' -- I never thought of that as violent or annialiation, but rather cutting the mental strings that bind you to this complacency and silence. Keeping with a theme -- his words are his weapons and his power. Similarly, I interpret "Bullet in the Head" and the line about "in house drive-by" as being about television. He uses violent metaphors for things that aren't physically violent, but mentally so. (My reading of a lot of RATM; feel free to disagree.)
"If ya bowin' down then let me doing cuttin'". The fistful of steel is the weapon (words / knowledge) needed to cut through, enact change. If you are going to be silent (bowin' down), get out of my way (let me do the cuttin') and enact change.
Tom Morello: Redefining the guitar and putting DJs out of work since 92
I'm always here for a Rage track.
*" 'CAUSE I KNOW THE POWER OF THE QUESTION "* (the missing line on this live version)
The words Arm The Homeless has the cool story. It begins in early RATM's form in Whiskey. Tom Morello is a huge fan of Woody Guthrie, Woody himself wrote on his guitar: This machine kills fascists. So Morello think: If we "Arm the Homeless", they at least would be steven with the cops
I absolutely love it when people discover Rage, it's a beautiful thing.
I know I am really late to the party here but: To me the fist full of steel is a metaphor for whatever force we can bring to bear for our cause - A gun, a sword, a microphone, a pen, a lever that controls a machine etc. Wars are won on many fronts and the message RAtM screamed out 30 years ago is more urgent than ever today. The steel in our fists is the power we wield at the polls or in unions or by not putting up with dehumanizing shit on a day-to-day. May kindness and empathy prevail.
Fuck yes
I got them goosebumps. What a piece of music!
I thought it was down the line of holding a gun tightly, the "steel" being a gun, the lyrics later "44 full of bullets" the 44 being a magnum.
Add the "grips the microphone with a fistful of steel"
Like you're going to listen to the dude with mic and a gun.
Ill totally add that Zach has stated many times his preference to the microphone over violence
This show was on Pinkpop( Netherlands) Caused a measured earthquake. No joke. Legendary.
Your voice makes me come back to listen to more of your opinions.
He's saying, his words ARE his weapon.
Maria, Ashes From the Fall and Roll Right are all under rated but fairly surprised you have not covered Know Your Enemy yet.
Maria makes me tear up every time.
Pretty sure he’s done enemy but nope he did bullet in the head
Love the unpacking - where were you when I was obsessed with rage in '93?! I think most 40 yo like myself leaned 70/30 music to lyrics when Rage was current ... and I'm not sure that's what Zach de la Rocha had in mind when they released these jams. They were trying to make timeless music that mattered, and hit hard. Well done. Keep it up.
"Visions of the MOVE" is about a group in Philly, 1972
Just realized this after all these years...
"For all the strong positive sisters in the house, this one for y'all"
Camera pans over a sea white dudes... priceless
Also, please react to "ashes in the fall" off of the 3rd album, it's an underrated classic
Zack did typically dedicate that song to the ladies for whatever reason. Although they would drop that song not long after their first tour, the BOLA tour saw Zack calling out those guys for groping or tearing off women’s clothes at their shows.
Zack is a master lyricist, however here I think that he is talking about an actual weapon probably a gun or perhaps a machete with so many talks about cutting and with his wording of "madboy grips the microphone, WITH a fistful of steel" although you could also say maybe he is grabbing the microphone with a steel courage.
Son of a Zapatista separatist, i don’t think he’s too far removed from the idea of taking up arms as a show of political or cultural protest. I don’t think that’s his end goal, but political radicals have radical boundaries that surpass those of joe blow with his head up his ass. I think he just wants ppl to get pissed off at a lot of fucked up shit that they’ve been propagandized into accepting as normal.
Thsese are De La Rocha's hardest bars. As soon as he comes in, he's in his bag. Pure Hip-Hop.
You mentioned seppuku (Harakiri) early on, but didn’t make the connection to “But if ya bowin' down, then let me do the cuttin'”
The traditional method of performing Seppuku involves the person kneeling down, then cutting their belly open, allowing their guts to spill out. Immediately following this, an assistant decapitates the person.
I've always felt that the 'fist full of steel' he was holding was the microphone being used as a projectile weapon.
Steel is a slang term for guns but the best thing about music it's all about how you enterperate it
"Because I know the power of a question..."
We all have a collective power...armed resistance has many layers(proverbial onion)! We must manufacture the revolution!💪🏾
My favorite fun fact about this song is it was written before Shaq was even drafted to the NBA (by a month or two)
YEEAAHH! MY FAVORITE! Hey, wouldnt it be cool if, at the start of the video , they put up a screen that was official looking,that said "No guitars were harmed in the making of this video" XD Morello, you Beast!!
MrLboyd, Settle for Nothing is a absolute must listen.
His words are like bullets coming thru the microphone
I would say that mic is the weapon/gun and words are the bullets.
So if bullets are made of steel...
When he has the mic in his hand loaded with words, he has his hand full of steel!
That's what I always thought about this!
I've always understood "... with a fistful of steel" as a reference to a grenade alongside a mic. Thus, enabling the lyricist to drop bombs metaphorically and potentially physically.
I always thought his fist full of steel was the power of his lyrics he shouts through his microphone hopefully to inform and inspire.
Fistful of Steel sir, backbone, balls, Resolute in one's beliefs. When you raise your fist up high for a Cause it is full of Steel
One of the best live shows I ever saw! 96 lollapalooza 🤘😎🤘
I specifically would like to see more of this specific content
Jane's Addiction's "Of Course" should def be on your list.
I think it's meant as a double meaning. His mic is a weapon that is loaded with "the question". He also appears to be threatening to use this "fistfull of steel" on the ignorant. Kind of a metaphor for a forceful education... In my humble opinion anyway
P.S Sleep now in the Fire for the next RATM song
I've always interpreted it to mean that the microphone is his weapon and he's holding it tightly
Much like the band Propagandhi, RATM were a life raft for me growing up as an Anarchist in rural Tennessee.
To me, with "Fistful of steel" he is making a point that in the right hands a microphone is a far more dangerous weapon than any gun to those in power.
Guns run out of ammo eventually, knowledge can live forever.
He's an MC. The microphone is his Fistfull of Steel
"Give me the cure" by the band Fugazi could be a good one for you to react to. Keep up the great work!
Your videos are dope as fuck and I love that you produce content. Keep bein you, comrade.
This is my band: they're who I listen to before I teach my college classes.
This song is as relevant now as it was in the early 90s.
Hope you get to Darkness by Rage against the machine soon.
I would love to see your reaction to "Without a Face" by RATM. It is as relevant today as it was in 1993.
Would love to see what you think of Know Your Enemy.
He's saying some people speak "grab the microphone" with a gun "a fist full of steel." Some people use violence to speak, that is how they speak and how they amplify their voices.
fist full of steel means not letting go ... he will ALWAYS speak the truth.
like Beastie Boys', Looking down the barrel of a gun (aka microphone aka weapon of choice)
Yeah I think it's about the Mic in his hand. An uses it as a weapon
A 44 full of bullets
Face full of pale
Eyes full of empty
A stare full of nails
The roulette ball, rolls along on the wheel
A mind full of fire
And a fistful of steel
This is comrade music.
Long love the USA! 🇺🇸
You can really see the rage against the machine in his eyes.
They had a shirt in the late nineties that had a picture of a microphone with the head of it being a 🍍grenade
They’ve always been a hugely political band but I’ve always felt that people who initially become interested in their music aren’t generally politically minded people. As these new fans begin to understand the message in their music, they become more interested in politics. They inspire these people to become more active in their own personal views and get out and vote. Cudos to Rage. Loved these guys for 2 and a half decades now
Fistful of steel is the mic/gun analogy that both are weapons.
I think reactions should be on album versions. The sound quality of live performances usually doesn’t sound good, unless they were planning on recording the show!
The microphone is the projectile weapon. And the words are the bullets.
The wind below by rage is amazing too, your awesome love your vids
am glad ur digging in to rock music!!!
He becomes a ball of pure energy at one point in this performance
“Steppin into the jam and I’m slammin like Shaquille” written during Shaq’s LSU days. Fistful of steel is a microphone, rather than the played out overused OTHER fistful of steel a gun.
We need this band now more than we ever have...
You should check out “without a face”
1000% this. Bars on bars, deep meaning...can't ask for more.
I love the fact you got the people who speak to a cause but do nothing about if that is a difficult concept to grasp
Gotta react KNOW YOUR ENEMY by them!!
Great reaction 🙌🏼👍🏼👏🏼💜🇨🇦
this man is so eloquently spoken
Its like watching the police trying to decipher secret code in outlaw music!
Still garnering the same response, 30 years later.
Beste Band die ich je live sehen durfte 🔥🤯 damals 2000 in Berlin...Vorband waren Asian Dub foundation... einfach nur geil gewesen
Love to see you do Ghost of Tom Joad. It's a cover of Springsteen song but it's better than the original.
A fist full of steel is a metaphor for anger
LOVE Rage Against the Machine!!! xoxoxoxo
Township rebellion, now that just has a certain energy about it, so so good!
You have the best Lyrical breakdowns on RUclips
"Mic Check" and "Year of Tha Boomerang" from RATM are underrated, and well worth a listen
Township rebellion & Ashes in the fall!!
That guitar meooowing at the beginning
Best band EVER!
We absolutely need this band this day in age
It’s wordplay
Arm the homeless and give a helping hand
RAGE IS ABSOLUTELY FREAKN AWESOME!!
