I didn't even know much about America or what was going on at that time of my life, but as an Irish person it resonated to how the troubles started up north. And the war of independence here too. So I'd imagine it would resonate with black people in the US even more so.

      Rodney King was a tragedy. But, keep in mind, he led police on a high speed chase, nearly wrecked into other cars and then refused to exit the vehicle. He acted erratically and resisted arrest. The riots were even worse. Look up truck driver Reginald Denny, who was pulled out of his truck and savagely beaten. Every time, the riots are far worse than the police beatings. And they are NEVER justified. NEVER is looting, burning, beating or killing a justified response. In my eyes it’s worse.

      @@danielbeckstedt767 Don't you get the feeling we are part of a human lab rat experiment? Everybody does stuff to up the ante to ratchet up the violence. The so-called authorities and peace officers seem just as blameworthy as the original perpetrators. And then you have outside groups who go in and provoke and incite people to react and overreact. I am willing to accept the Rodney King was an unfortunate incident that got out of hand. But all of these different incidents that happen especially in urban black communities seem calculated to stir people's anger. In the George Floyd case you had outsiders handing out bricks and encouraging people to create mayhem. What does that have to do with happened? Here in the Nichols case the special unit is very special indeed. They were recruited specially. Why is that? The corruption in that department is blatant. I think people were hoping there would be a huge riot, but it didn't happen. Anyway, forgive me. I am one of those tinfoil hat people seeing a conspiracy everywhere. But trust me that Nichols case is about more than what you think.

    Gentlemen, this band is one of the most influential bands from the 90s and their content carries so much weight, it would do you good to research them a little bit and watch the lyric videos. Rage against the machines messages were so raw and Ironically lost in their popularity of mostly white audience due to their sound. They carried a heavy political message trying to speak truth to power and shed light on police brutality of african americans, along with general government control over the lower classes. With their rock sound they found fame in the numetal communities which would not have been their target audience if you follow the lyricism. Everyone should listen to them now as their message hits hard and their music even harder. I really hope you can get into them because they were amazing.

    I'm a decades long Rage fan and I think if you delved further into their catalogue you'd really appreciate this band's message. They don't hold back. They speak truth to power and they do it fearlessly. Songs like "Freedom" and "War Within a Breath" will change your life. As others have said, definitely read the lyrics. Zack doesn't always enunciate well but his lyrics are fierce and truthful. They'll honestly give you one of the best history lessons in the historical oppression of marginalized communities combined with a powerful call to arms for people to rise up and fight back. Also, since you mentioned The Matrix, there are Rage songs at the end of the first and second films, "Wake Up" and "Calm Like a Bomb" so you've probably heard this band without even realizing it. Give 'em a chance. Seriously. I think they will resonate.

(this is my opinion being born into poverty in Central America, as being lied to my entire childhood about freedom and protection. When they took all of our money, votes and opportunity. In return we were guaranteed universal poverty, equity and equality of nothing. Now I live in the USA and am sad to see how ungrateful people are to be in the best county on the planet.

    You REALLY must do more RATM - lyrics vids. This band is still so relevant today - sadly. Police brutality, corrupt governments, racism...a very political band. Love watching you guys. Cheers from Denmark!

    I once had the pleasure to be in third row of a RATM concert. My arms were black and blue but it was worth it. The energy was insane!

    This isn’t a song that was made just to be made like a lot of music these days. It’s so relatable to those who lived during the 90s, specifically younger people. You either get it or you don’t and idk if these guys got it. And that’s ok. Sometimes you have to look deeper into the background of some music to fully understand it.
    On another note.. the simultaneous head banging was epic🤣 love these guys.

    One of you mentioned The Matrix, so now you really need to do their song “Wake Up”, which was at the end of that movie. With the lyrics pulled up, read and listen so you don’t miss anything.

    Down Rodeo, for me, that's one of their most powerful songs lyrically. And Tom Morello is an absolute genius, makes you think there's a DJ but it's him on the guitar.

    Yall REALLY needed a lyric sheet for this, especially for your first Rage cut.
    "Some of those in Forces
    are the same Who burn crosses."
    Zach is an MC with bangin bars to spare. Yall should not not know that from now going forward..Peace

    The drummer from the band Rush is called The Professor. His drum kit completely surrounded and rose above him. True skill.
