[mysticresistence]

On July 4th, 2012, the ENTIRE Occupy Movement will converge on Washington DC. We wont stop. The fall of 2011 was just the beginning.

Remember: the bankers stole our homes, our money, our country with the help of their government accomplices. I say, we the people FIGHT BACK. It's time to LIVE a Rage Against the Machine song 2012...THE YEAR OF THE BOOMERANG! Occupy Wall St! We are the 99%

[wannyyydilliamsss]

[TomPayeaLive]

this the throwback

[AKx4]

Please take 5 seconds to listen to the absolutely beautifully played bass lines in the main riff of this song. If they don't change your life nothing will.

[kidkounselor]

Yeah punch a fuckin banker in the face today!

[PunkITechs]

Make the guilty pay. #OWS

[meanmark1]

love the ads: Go to ITT Tech and waste your fucking money on a degree that won't provide the return on your loan investment. #OCCUPYEVERYTHING. The revolution won't be televised!!!

[TheTiffdawn]

artists need to sit back, and remember they are the only ones to get the revolution started....these new artists are being irresponsible with their voices...I really don't give a damn about your bentley...I need my credit score to go up!

[jayh02110]

[ilikenofx22]

Wikipedia Frantz Fanon. Rage is smart.

[sebbeas123]

Zach's flow is sick!

[guitar45rocks5]

It makes me sick that talent like this is no longer together.

[ansoni]

@guitar45rocks5 They are doing concerts from time to time... No new music yet, but you can see them in concert.

[nikesb2406]

that opening riff is pure magic

[mamafaker1995]

@nikesb2406 RATM is magic :D

[nikesb2406]

@mamafaker1995 true that man

[piranhacuss]

there's a Pepsi commercial before the song. I wonder how RATM might feel about that.

[gaborik9494]

@XiuTheFeared If you listen closely, almost all their songs have the most killer bass lines in the industry.

[masteroutlaw100]

[THESPOOFFER]

5 people threw their boomerang's to only have them fly away.



[hypecity69]

[Kingopersia]

how dare they put an ad on a Rage song

[g0hawks11]

Thank-you page rage. I really was getting tired of my Facebook page.

[radazel]

catching an advertisement in a rage song is sacrilegious.

[TexasMadeChicano]

5 centuries of penetentry is referring to the white occupation of indeginous land... year of the boomerang = mestizo/indeginous revolution!

[JJnnaatt]

Their best album by far.

[Niemeyer2007]

These times are perfect for RATM!

[kfredneck]

I miss RATM. Glad I got the DVD @Mexico City.

[eyg24]

Godamm i cant get enough of this

[ramberghini]

Libya represent

Here's to a global revolution, who's with me?

[67gargoyle]

thumbs up if you watching this cause of the other guys cedits

[UnityPeace311]

@67gargoyle Thumbs up if your watching this not cause of some gay ass movie but because Rage is one bad ass fuckin band

[67gargoyle]

@UnityPeace311  yeah dude totally

[willalwaysloveOHIO]

@UnityPeace311 ...what movie?

[10oclockCurfew]

[Alexrules4ever]

@ragebassist yessss

[SuperJoker556]

@ragebassist i know that feeling bro i have done it never turns up preaty

[msjams100]

@ragebassist fuck yeah bro

[wspsaves]

@ragebassist If you study anarcho-syndicalism and contemporary economic history you'll find some pretty good targets for such an action. I would not recommend arbitrarily punching people in the face, not very nice ya know

[3tangle3]

@ragebassist ermmmmm they dont want you to "punch somebody" they want you to attack the shitty imperialist unequal society

[beirney82]

@ragebassist Ironic much!

[markadair]

Thumbs up if you first heard this on the "Higher Learning" soundtrack.

"Its over when its over, duuuude" - Ice Cube.

[maxman21295]

How can anyone DISlike this? It's so unbeliveably awsome.

[rarimano72]

free libya

[rageagainstmonica]

Best Rage song in my opinion, but so underrated!

[calvin799]

We should do the same of egypt, algeria,syria.. and all other countries!!.. goverment is a fucking virus!!.. fuck off capitalism... thumps up if you are agree..and if no!! so fuck off!!

[chailizard]

The guitar between the notes the bass plays in the first verses sounds like a gun cocking :D

[wwwspelenlsucks]

Freeeeeeee Lybia!

[TheLazyPlumber]

I kill a communist for fun, but for a green card, I gonna carve him up real nice - Tony Montane.. Coolest movie qoute ever, and i would agree to this quote ;)

[scoot24925]

@TheLazyPlumber isnt Zack a communist? isnt this a communist band?

[TheLazyPlumber]

@scoot24925 No they are anarchists ;)

[scoot24925]

@TheLazyPlumber Yep,i thought they are Anarcho-Communists ,The Red star in their clothes and in Battery,seem like clear communism symbols to me,Che guevara.....and they never spoken against Communism (which clearly is a totalitarian regime)

[elipoop123]

@scoot24925 Communism is not a totalitarian regime. Marx founded communism to demolish power entirely. Look at kibbutzim in Israel, they are small towns where everybody works equally, everybody shares wealth amassed into a single pool, and nobody holds total power. That is true, beautiful communism. Mao, Stalin, Kim Jong Il, they don't know what the fuck they were doing. RATM do believe in communism, just not what many view to be communism.

[SmokMaahPowle]

@elipoop123

dude, i have copy and pasted your comment so i can deal with ignorant fools who throw around comments like "Communismis totalitarian" faster.:L

[elipoop123]

@SmokMaahPowle much obliged amigo.

[SmokMaahPowle]

@elipoop123

Go with Christ brah

[elipoop123]

@SmokMaahPowle um, ok.

[archangel2683]

anyone else get tha mexican super hero phone commercial?

[darklordoprah]

March 2011: Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Oman, Bahrain, Algeria, Morroco, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine, and of course Iraq... The Middle East is burning up.

[nrjelley]

@darklordoprah about time, perhaps they will actually progress and arrive into the 21st century.

[niloneske]

The real Australia unite, love our land, love our people. Respect for the natives. I am Kamileroi, I refuse to lay down and accept hate.

[metallica4life1989]

this is the best fusion band ever they should reunite i would love that

[KisaiKagai]

@metallica4life1989 they're playin out there

[EpsilonWolfBreach]

@LookOutThree Yeah, its really amazing :D i love morello.

[EpsilonWolfBreach]

@LookOutThree yeah, its somewhere in here:

watch?v=Eg-nF8jG3Hc

[icapuani]

it's hip-hop/rap/rock/metal whatever you wanna call it, I would go so far to say that you can't label Rage because they incorporate jazz/blues like solos into many of there songs even this song and Freedom is a good example

[EpsilonWolfBreach]

@LookOutThree Actually, He said in an interview, instead of studying Guitarists, he studied hip-hop artists and Dj's, their style. That is why Morello is so intuitive.

[totalfubar09]

Love this fucking song!!

[snoball78]

The way things are going in Egypt, Libya, etc., 2011 might be the year of the boomerang

[Supaboy000]

@LookOutThree Don't be ignorant sir.

[thebellyofthebeast23]

The sisters are in protect the frontline!

[mralexander6661]

dj? hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahaha....nice vrey nice loke...hahahahahahahahahahahah­ahahahahahahahaha

[socalkgee1027]

@SadBananaCo totally. i got hooked after i first listened to them and heard the bassline to bombtrack, insane. but ratm definitely kicks audioslaves ass so i give a shit ton of their credit to zack cause no one does what he does and no one does it as good

[wonderxlick]

who's this bassist?

[xElHijodelPapa666]

@wonderxlick Tim Commenford

[heyjude97]

I hate it when people just start fights in the youtube comments just to be assholes. Why can't we all just rant about the government like the good old days?

[njdeezy85]

fuck all of yall stupid motherfuckers. you dont know shit

[MrsMatusaBR]

5 viados fãs de justin bieber naum gostaram de ouvi uma musica com uma letra q fala coisas sérias ao inves de falar de amor e de babaquices tipicas de americanos

[KillaRock881]

[ConductiveDan]

@KillaRock881 UK back atcha brother

[JerFhilm]

Swimmin in half truths makes me wanna spit. Hells yes!

[Dametta13beararms]

!It's darck now in dachow and im screaming from with in!

[soydave1988]

This is one of my favorite RATM songs. They need to come back

[deliciousmorton]

2011: Tunisia, Egypt, Algeria, Syria, Yemen, and Jordan. And it's only the beginning of February.

[blackerthanebony100]

@deliciousmorton I'm not exactly a conspiracy theorist, but I wouldn't be surprised if a new world order happened in about a year.

[Mustardmonkey1]

@deliciousmorton Well, great, but it can get worse as well as better.

Remember what happened in Iran?

[vvsector1]

@deliciousmorton

funny but these riots are a creation of the system you hate so much...The JewSA stands behind all of those.

[deliciousmorton]

@vvsector1 did i mention something about hating a specific system? i don't recall saying anything along those lines. plus, i have no idea what "The Jewsa" actually is. in my 34 years of life, i can honestly say that i have never heard that word. i looked in the dictionary and couldn't find it either. is it slang for "Juicer"?

[vvsector1]

@deliciousmorton

the JewSa = the USA. Sorry to be so straight about it. As for the hatred to the system - I just thought you admired all those riots...And I just wanted to say that all of them were inspired by the USA. That's all. Sorry if I misunderstood you.

[deliciousmorton]

@vvsector1 jhfjghabz akjoiudjjl top.

[vvsector1]

@deliciousmorton

whatever

[DoctorDeo1]

@deliciousmorton Wish it could have taken place 15 years earlier. Maby it could have spared a lot of innocent lifes in 9-11....

[F1brother]

@deliciousmorton Rge with you and wich east europe too this mutherfuckers treet us like shit the time is comming

[JBrewer4386]

@deliciousmorton You can add Spain to that list.

[CrabTastingMan]

@deliciousmorton You know why ME is being attacked by white ppl? Cuz Gaddafi wanted to make a gold standard currency, and he has a LOT of gold.

The Dollar and Euro being threatened, they went to attack. Democracy? Since when did they care about the ppl suffering under dictators THEY put to power 30 years ago?

[arxidi666]

@deliciousmorton Yo bro, you forgot Greece!

[chronicleone]

This song reminds me of a horrible christmas ornament I had that played the new years song that sounded exactly like the intro to this song. It was OLD, out of tune, took a nine volt when any modern device of the size and function would take 2 double AA, it had NO volume control and was extremely( very very ) loud, it screeched through holes cut in a plastic shell that had HORRIBLE plastic reverb, it caused it's own horrible distortion, and listening to it caused headaches in everyone I knew.

[mustang96100]

5 People must like GAY BOY BIEBER!

[Lucia139]

@mustang96100 by mentioning his name ur no better than the people who endorse him so why don't you just shut up. enough with this crap.

[D33veeoss]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!! GOOOOOOOOOOOOD ONNNNNNNNEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH­AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH

[Kelkhin]

a fucking slap bassist....

[roxbmyk18]

I always felt that the rap group Public Enemy was very similar to Rage. Just the fact that both bands were rebels and spoke against authority.

[ThrashMetalMan1]

@roxbmyk18 public enemy is the most underrated rap group ever and in my opnion one of the best

[KidFromMichigan]

@39user274502 ahem RHCP=Rock/Rap too, RATM was heavily influenced. love em both

[ghighc4]

This song was in the 1995 film Higher Learning :)

[justwatchinthis1]

@39user274502: In this instants, there is no need for a DJ anyway. By the way, show some respect to the DJ.

[MrJamell21]

this is like Hip Hop rhyming and metal rock into 1. Hot Musik.

[MrCsooty82]

fucking too right mate, timeless sounds ratm are the fucking kings of music as well as the beatles of course.

[jelert6]

@NevillesCovers its Rage against the Machine

[TheKipKadillac]

@Ferrarimaster4 You forgot rules 5, You can't have Ferrari in your YouTube name then talk about rules of the underground.

[jtwiztidbagz]

Glad I got to see rage in concert...one of the craziest pits ever

[ratmphan]

@jtwiztidbagz u lucky bastard

[fuckyouthenbill]

Wen waz da year of da boomerang?

[Ferrarimaster4]

~Underground Youtube Decrees~

I Thou shalt not make fucking retarded Justin Bieber Jokes

II Thou shalt not comment on the dislike bar

III Thou shalt not combine the first two decrees EVER.

IV Thou shalt stay on topic in the comment boxes

V Thou shalt spread word of the decrees

~Underground Youtube Decrees~

Disobeying the decrees will doom you to a Youtube afterlife filled with bad rap music and male enhancement advertisements.

[jaketno]

@Ferrarimaster4 i agree 100% comments are starting to suck and they are repetitive however by spreading this word that makes you no better than them choose to lead not to follow

[NASTYREPHLEXX]

its so nice to ear good music artist with talent !

[14unicycle]

Gods name is zach

[AceBassist2]

So true.We have to show the government whos boss!

[SadBananaCo]

Zack de la Rocha and Tom Morello are great and i thums upped ^those comments but dont you thik the bassist and drummer should get a bit more cridit too?? There are loads of awsome bass riffs in rage songs (like this one^) that are,in my opinion, better than the guitar riffs and the drums are the foundation to any band. so thumbs up if you aggree :)

[5oulPower]

@SadBananaCo dude i started playing the bass all because of Timmy C! Model: Jazz bass. Been playing for 2 yrs now.

[cuervomania74]

@SadBananaCo Wilk and Commerford ROCK!!! all four are amazing musicians, the band is great only because of all four and their style on bass/guitar/drums/vocals... if any of them were replaced by someone else, the band would never have the same style and the music would be completely different

[iliabashel]

@SadBananaCo

No you ara wrong...

There is big differance betwing simple bassist and great bassist...

90% of rock bands have got simple bassists and 10% great bassists...

which ara this 10%? I'll tell u: Iron Maiden,RATM,Red Hot Chili Papers,Dream Theater and others...

This ara bands where bassists have equal popularity or more popularity to guitarists and vocalists...

just like example of Steve Harris from Maiden,he is N1 in his band...

[pastorofmuphets]

@iliabashel Dude ive never heard a cool bass line in Maiden, no offence but all i ever here is god damn triplets!

[roxbmyk18]

@SadBananaCo  That's so true my man.

[MindC0rr0si0n]

THis is how I learned to love a woman in the morning in the B.C. by cleaning her with my tongue from the back... SHOCK ...I didnt know what I was in for, but I didnt want to betray myself and so I swallowed and she alwasy brought it up. Thanks.

[MindC0rr0si0n]

So we built ships and returned when we were needed.

[MindC0rr0si0n]

When I tried to approach her I truely worried about her mental health and stability. She was on the ciling and then she was gone... She had never seen a bathroom like this before.

[MindC0rr0si0n]

If youve seen her face then youre already too close...dont think about a glance its too late to run. Shell eat you alive, by her righteousness shes ready to die. And shes naked.

[lockandreload]

I love when he says 'power to the PEOPLE!!!'

[TheEcmf]

@lockandreload i love it too !!

[fillipeano]

What time signature is the ending in? It sounds like a really fast tempo of 5/4, not sure though.

[39user274502]

linkin park is shit, limp bizkit is garbage. there is not a single rap/rock band out there that can reach the greatness of RATM. they came out in 91 when no one was doing rap/rock. 20 years later you listen to their music and its still better than any of the crap other rap/rock bands have released in the last 10 years.DJs make the music sound cheap in my opinion. RATM dont use DJs.

[iliabashel]

@39user274502 POD's also good band :)

[5oulPower]

@39user274502 dude, do you even know why Tom Morello plays his guitar with effects of a turntable? Coz this band was heavily influenced (they said it themselves) by... Guess who, Public Enemy - the pioneering hip-hop group which among others, pioneered the rapper - dj relationship. DJ's influenced Tom. HE doesn't think it sounds cheap, he thinks it sounds BADASS. So your opinion screws up there...

[wwwspelenlsucks]

@5oulPower

naah they were influenced by Urban dance squad,

try to find it; "good grief"

[ITzzINsANITY911]

@39user274502 fuck a dj when u have tom morello haha listen to his fuckin solos he makes 2 bandmates guitarist and a dj. lol
