rage against the machine

With the recent release of ‘Rage Against the Machine - XX,’ the 20th anniversary edition of Rage Against the Machine's self-titled debut disc, fans had plenty of reason to celebrate in hopes that it marked only the beginning of fresh new things to come from the band. However, guitarist Tom Morello has squashed that dream for now, even going so far to say that the band may never play together again

With the 20th anniversary edition of their self-titled debut set to be released Nov. 27, Rage Against the Machine fans are wondering if the band plans on recording a new album.

While it recently emerged that Rage Against the Machine have an unlikely fan in Republican vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan, Rage guitarist Tom Morello has been pretty clear that the feeling is not mutual.

All the big influential bands had to start out as small baby bands playing to crowds that didn't care who is on the stage.  This piece of rock history was recorded at Cal State in 1991.  It's funny to see people walking past ignoring one of the biggest bands of the 90's. Check out the video of their very first public show.

But for now, the rapper and rocker has written a poem for those who have been motivated into action by corporate greed and the division between those who have and those who have not.

Whether performing in Rage Against the Machine, Audioslave, or any of his other projects, Tom Morello always does something unique with his guitar.
