We welcome dissenting opinions on all our videos but racist comments will be removed and repeat commenters blocked. Keep it civil, everyone.
Good move.
Stay strong on this! People should have every right to control their own communities and it is our right as members of the community to declare racism should never be part of it
tastefully put.
+BANGER this is an example of the real life shit that comes with having brown skin in communities like this. welcome to ma life
YES, THANK YOU! More channels should do this
Fuckin' right. Tom seems like the type of guy I could listen to for hours. He's comes across as a very genuine and wise man.
Thanks for sharing this!
Well he graduated Harvard for Political Science, so he knows what he's talking about most times. Sure a lot of it is his opinion, but regardless it still holds truth in reality. He's not just pulling this shit out of his ass. He obviously knows what he's talking about, and it's not like he's rambling either. He's very collected and direct with his answers.
We will also remove/block/report hate speech, harassment and bullying of any kind. Fight your corners but leave the personal attacks out of it.
Good
nice open debate you have here. hahha
Ok then socialism is shit
Awesome. All I can say is end racism and achieve more unity. Thank you, Bangers TV.
Thank you, both Tom and Sam, for this.
Keep on fighting the good fight.
I will write my astute commentary on this video using Tom Morello effects:
WAH WAKKA WAK WAKKA WIKKI WIKKI BAK DZHGJAAAAAAAA BWEEEEQ BEKKE BWEEEEEQ BEKKE BEKKE BRAKKAM
SQUUUUAAAAaaaaaaaAAAAAaaaaAAAABBA *part that sounds like a harmonica* WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMP *F# chord*
+Mark Arandjus Best comment!

dude! so good
Tom morello speaks the truth I'm with him
I'm not American, I'm a female and I listen to metal, rock and the multiple subgenres that follow. I play and also write music (in English) and being bilingual has a lot of benefits and doesn't make the experience of listening to music any less greater. Although some Americans don't understand that unless they're musicians or very open. Talent is spread but not everybody thinks like Tom Morello people!
Yeah Ive always loved black metal but like the fact that so many of both the fans and the artists themselves are racist, homophobic, xenophobic really bothered me. Metal and hard rock music, to me, is a place where no matter where you grow up, who you are, and whatever background youre from, the music will always be there to help empower you that you arent alone and that there are people out there who feel the same. Yet some of the artists will close themselves off to those people and it just doesnt make sense to me. Closing yourself off for a specific demographic is something the radio does and MTV does, not underground music
remember there will be no rock if theres no African Americans rock only become dominated by whites and called as “white music” because of huge influx of suburban Whites being rebellious toward their parents
Tom Morello, brilliant as always.
Wow. That's a great clip that ks for posting. I'm kicking myself because I stayed at the Beverly laurel in 2005 whilst lucky enough do some TV shows with a band so I had guitar in tow and remember thinking hmmm, L. A is the home of ratm wonder where they are right now lol! However I did get to record with Brad wilks next door neighbour 😊
Metal is for everyone,
Just as music itself is for everyone.
seemingly not for this guy,you agree with him or your a nazi
Please post the Corey Glover interview!
In the Latino community I don't think it's seen as shocking at all for liking metal. I think plenty of bands in Latin/ South America are examples for Latinos in metal. However, I do think it is harder for blacks to like metal because like Tom Morello stated, we don't see as many mainstream rock/ metal musicians.
Maybe a further topic could be NSBM bands.
yeah literally all my latino friends like rock and heavy metal
Yezz Dizzey I'm part Latino and LOVE rock music and my friend group is very diverse and a lot of us like the music
I'm black and I literally couldn't care less. If people want to hate, that's their problem, not mine - I enjoy life and love playing metal on my Jackson guitar - and a bunch of haters wish they had the power to change that but they don't. When I see/hear about racist people, I think "poor them, must be horrible living a life hating other people and having absolutely no power whatsoever to do anything about it".
I don't think we should have a conversation of racist fans - to hell with them. However, the important thing is that artists, who are role-models to many people, represent decent values and that's not just related to racism but to other topics as well. Therefore, when Phil Anselmo does stupid comments (not the first time), that's more of an issue than a bunch of stupid KKK fans.
LotN2 yo what model, I love Jackson’s
this is such an unnuanced and simplistic take on a complex issue, plugging your ears and covering your eyes doesn't dismiss the effects and the obstacles racism causes you brainlet lmfao
There's a really fine line between in-house conversational racism, and organized racism along the lines of the KKK or Identity Evropa, who do have political power. The FBI itself has acknowledged that White Supremacists have infiltrated the police force in the US. "Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses."
Out of many, we are one! American Revolution 2016!
excuse but didn't rock and roll metal derive from rhythm and blues..hello Chuck Berry
jaba ju Exactly! But since Elvis helped popularize it, it was seen as "white" music and not "black" music I just dont like using the term race in the end we are all human
Thoughtful as always. I haven't shut up about this guy's style of guitar playing in days.
My favorite musicians are Babymetal, Yvette Young, System of a Down, and yes, even Tom Morello. Jimi Hendrix is an inspiration to anyone who plays the guitar. I really resent Tom's statements here.
It's all about different cultures. I'll break it down for you. Southern metal comes from the deep south of the USA where there's a lot of white people. Viking metal comes from Scandinavia, where there's a lot of white people. Same with black metal. It's just because there are a lot of white people in these areas that metal has such a dominant white standard. So why don't more people around the world pick up the electric guitar?
Well, isn't it obvious? You look at most Latin American, Asian, and African countries and they live on about $5 a day. A cheap guitar costs about $200 and a cheap amp costs about $60. So they'd have to starve while saving for this stuff. God forbid they want two instruments or a drum set. They can't afford a Fender Telecaster plugged into a Marshall amp. They didn't go to Harvard. These people around the world just aren't as rich as Tom is. Hell, most people aren't.
enough said! great interview !
how is this man SO ARTICULATE. jeeze i love it
What's political about not wanting people to think about unemployment at your show/concert etc. In what way is that political?
Dam, good questions and nice deep answers
oh lord,i thought Bono was tedious.
Weird. I never cared one whit about the racial composition of a band. I either like them, or not. Over the years, going way back, listened to lots of Metal bands with members of various races. Living Color. Suffocation. Death Angel (Filipino members). God Forbid. Either they play music I like or they don't. Who gives a crap about race? I never did.
happy 53th birthday thomas baptiste morello !!!
We need new episodes of Metal evolution please
I have an African American friend. He's Jewish and he listens to death metal. Stereotypes=gone
Metal came from the blues, and this was brought about by black individuals from the 20th century.
try to find politicks in cannibal corpse
As much as I disagree with Tom Morello with his political views, I know people who went to that Ozzfest show and saw a lot of skins/neo nazis. However most shows I've been too didn't have obvious neonazis and also that's such a big venue that it'd be hard for bands to see.
My personal opinion is that politics should stay out of music. I personal do not hear anything political in a slayer song or a cannibal corpse song.
love him. salute
I don't agree at all with his final statement about everything being political, but outside of that this was a very insightful interview. Well done.
how isn't everything political?
Without Sound Barrier, Living Colour would not exist Tommy boy.
How about Detroits DEATH, formed in 1971 ?
What really pisses me off when people talk about rage against the machine is when they will get so wrapped up in the fact they have leaning ideas that they forget to see the message of anti war, anti corruption, and anti racism. That is bullshit. I love my country to death and hate communism with a passion, but this country is not perfect and who gives a damn if they’re left or right, They are being patriotic by voicing their thoughts. And yes it’s your right to criticize, but it’s my right to criticize when your just plain wrong. And one more thing, how dose rage get the Left commie hate flag, but the Mc5 get off free. Keep in mind I love both bands
some of these comments sound like that white guy in raison in the sun lol
Living Colour was RATM before RATM :)
we need RATM in 2017!
Yes !
How much of his 30 million dollars he's made in a capitalistic economy has he given away to charity? Inquiring minds would love to know
man did you know google exists and its free right?, you're way too wrapped up in your own biases to even attempt to be intellectually honest
only time Ive seen white power tattoos at a festival was mayhem fest 2012.
I fucking love Tom.
I've never been to ozzfest but ya id imagine it would be filled with a lot of racist people, that sucks man music is music, treat everyone with respect no matter what.
All praise due to Jump Hendrix
Claim to be a commie but make money on capitalism... I like quite a few RATM songs, but I find their politics hypocritical to the music they make.
Yeah, how dare RATM try to not starve to death?
Seriously, you deserve to get punched for that extremely stupid argument.
30 million isn't starving to death dolt
Adam Jaye uhhhh I didn't say they were? Do you know how to read or are you just too young to be on the internet?
u mean using bigger platform to inform and mobilize? wow totally antithetical to their movement, especially how he has donated to causes and participated in protests , yeah man totally hypocritical lmfao
Tom Morello is not black
Not a real Limp Bizkit fan, but Tom Morello wishes he could play guitar as skillfully as Wes Borland. That's why Rage doesn't put out any more albums. One they are all rich hypocrites. Two, Tom Morello is a one trick pony guitarist with no range.
The races of mankind are different, intrinsically. Different average intelligence, different psychologically, different in talents and proclivities. One size does not fit all.
I could be friends with a guy like Tom Morello, listening to music (not his music, RATM sucks) like Priest and Maiden, talking about guitar, etc. But when he get on to politics or race, his commie-biased views, I'd have to shut my friend down.
Love the music Tom has created and really like his musical style. Don't really care about his politics though.
+Dan Hilmart I'm the other way around. Never been too impressed with their music but always impressed with his interviews.
+the artist formally known as craig lastname
me too
Tom Morello used to be so cool
Wasn't Tom Morello's father down with Jojo Kenyatta and African? Hello
his father was part of the mau mau guerrilla and his great uncle was jomo kenyatta
Thanks for clearing that up for me.
I disagree. Not all music is political, the best music allways becomes some form of folk witch gets embeded in culture. Politics comes from resentment and some music is based on that too. Folk music sings about the life people live in a given time, theres no resenting, thats the diference. Love, respect RATM.
