Zack is to rap as Drake is to street cred. I doubt he intended it, but he really did lay the template for Fred Durst.

Yeeeeaaaaahhhhh, this is now getting out of hand. I mean, can we stay in any form of historical reality?

Has some electronic band called Rave Against the Machine done a cover album of these guys at 140bpm?
If not, they should.
I'd prefer a salsa-revue style thing w/horn section, sharply dressed large backing vocalists in hats, and Latin percussion, dubbed Rage Against the Machín.
Richard Cheese and Lounge Against the Machine has you covered

Holy shit! Thank you. Kinda the last thing I expected to discover today.
While I'd have preferred a little less irony and a few more papitos w/barrigas gigantes scraping the güiro or something, this will more than suffice. More than suffice. Hats off to ya'!

Easy enough Crap vote for me.

Freedom is pure awesomeness.
Last track on Evil Empire (year of the boomerang I think it is) is also a banger

A solid NOT CRAP from me. One of those bands that shaped me in my formative years, but also one that keeps on inspiring year after year.

But they have whole albums worth of material that sound exactly the same as Killing In The Name.
That's actually something I like about them; they're one of those bands like AC/DC that knew exactly what they wanted to sound like. Disciplined. The ol' Fuck You is so played out though, I would much prefer people spin one of the other equivalent but different ones and everybody can just yell MOTHERFUCKERRRRR at the end anyway if they feel like they need that.

Definitely not a band you can convince people to like.
I would say if you’ve only heard “the hits” and don’t hate the singular premise of the band take a second look at some album tracks. Down Rodeo and Born of a Broken Man are thrilling.
IMO
