I was stunned by Zack de la Rocha's vocal stylization and Tom Morello's guitar work when I heard Rage Against The Machine for the first time with "Killing In The Name". From your response on our community page, I decided to jump down the rabbit hole and see what else RATM has to offer. Apparently, quite a bit!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Rage Against The Machine performing "Bulls On Parade" for the first time.

I'm pretty comfortable with hating everything Fascism is. A government is not meant to and should not get to harm, subjugate, or threaten its citizens, instead it should be a concentrated body of effort directed towards assisting, protecting, aiding, and ensuring the full list of rights of their citizens in an unbiased, unprejudiced fashion. Unfortunately, at the time of this song's writing up to now, and well before the song's writing, the United States government has done the opposite, being incredibly cruel to its citizens, especially on the basis of race/ethnicity as well as social and economic class. The US Government is currently moving towards a Fascist Theocracy, and if that isn't something to oppose with great force and vigor, I don't know what is.

@billmcdonough3950 7 месяцев назад

The other thing she might not be realizing is that unlike some orchestral strings, 3-4 of the strings on the guitar (depending on the weight he's using, I imagine he's using 9s) are wound with nickel, so there's a texture there that Tom can use there (and which is responsible for the pick slides that have confused her on other pieces).

@Living_Dead_Girrl 7 месяцев назад

It’s a combo: he’s not just using pedal board (and he’s not “scratching” fret) - his hand on the fret is also *palm muting* chords. For the record scratching sounds, he’s sliding his finger on open, highly distorted guitar strings, and looks like he’s hugging the guitar because he swaps to palm muting with his hand/forearm that’s otherwise on the fretboard. This technique of palm muting for staccato and/or distorted guitar chords originates in Punk & Grunge. Morello primarily incorporates Punk, Funk, and Acid Rock elements. The Hip Hop influence in Rage (besides the infrequent incorporation of the “record scratching” guitar sound) is primarily in the drums & incorporation of sampling, just like Nü Metal.

Zack was barely 24 when this album was produced, and 21 in the first one.

For the verses, Tom engages the wah wah peddle in a top-side (toes end of the peddle) down manner which gives the gritty/trebbly sound. So when you point out that “sound in the background” around 18:25, Tom is taking his foot back on the wah so he can shut it off which is a button at the top-side. So he’s quickly turning it to the neutral position so he can engage the button, cleaner. That motion is the sound. A wah sound. The chorus is straight distortion channel so he wouldn’t want the wah wah engaged.

From a guitarist’s pov, there’s a lot to take in with Tom’s playing. Sometimes, instead of using the Wah, which filters the tone in a legato fashion, he does pick-up switching which makes it more staccato. Basically, each pick-up in his guitar can be independently set to a different eq, then he uses the toggle switch next to his volume/tone knobs to rapidly switch back and forth between those different frequencies with a certain rhythm. He’s an absolute masted at utilizing every function of the guitar.

Actually no....there is an old Guitar World video where he shows that the bridge pickup is used EXCLUSIVELY on this particular song INCLUDING during the solo and on almost every other RATM song ever. Tom always has 1 tone knob set all the way down, and the other set to all the way up, and so the pickup switch acts as a killswitch, and his wah and whammy together create a high pitch to the scraping, then add in the rhythm of cutting it off at the right time and boom there ya go.

I too saw them at Ottawa Bluesfest last summer and Zach was on point even though he was sitting down. However (and keep in mind that I have been a Rage fan since their first album, saw them in 1994 at Varsity Arena in Toronto) I thought they struggled to keep the rhythm in parts. Tim Commerford is a great bassist, and I think I chalk it up to being rusty after all these years and then the stress of Zach's injury probably didn't help. I was shocked when the beat started to drop and the rhythm got out of sync. And then I was amazed at how Tom Morrello pulled them right back together. That man is amazing not only as a solo guitarist but as a band member. It was impressive and an amazing concert.

Tom Morello uses a funny mixture of a Whammy pedal for the high pitch sounds and sometimes a wah-wah (which makes the exact sound of the name). But Tom also said that he was very inspired by hip hop and DJ scatch music. Which is why many of the sounds he makes is actually him scratching (like a DJ) on a guitar while manipulating the sound with a whammy pedal. It's super fascinating and is also many of the reasons of why his tone is so freaking different. If you look up Cochise with Audioslave the intro is him slapping the guitar with a pick. His creativity is insane.

@jacobseal 21 час назад

I saw an interview with him a few years ago. He said while other guys were sitting in their room trying to learn Van Halen or whatever shred stuff, he was trying to figure out how to make his guitar sound like a helicopter. (Paraphrased). But he is also a very good "traditional" guitarist.

He's said that he used to practice 8 hours a day playing guitar at the height of the 80's shred guitar era. Competition was fierce. One day he was going to play a gig and noticed that every other guitar player was shredding like crazy and he felt that he wasn't going to stand out that way. And on these few songs where he does play normal lead I get it as its nothing special. But realizing this he began to study DJ's and trying to emulate their sounds. Discovering the Whammy pedal, which was then brand new, didn't hurt either. He has also said that he stopped chasing tone when he realized he could never find the tone he wanted, so he was going to use what he had from that time on. I guess that made him explore his effects pedals and amp a lot more thorough then most. He's mostly still using the same rig and pedals.

1 of Rage’s most pivotal tracks. Also one of their most well-known songs. And the tune where Zack’s flow earns the respect of major rap and hip-hop fans. This guitar solo might be Morello’s most famous lead ever. It even fools some people that there’s a DJ scratching records on this track. But the guy is just so wildly inventive it’s unreal. And on a very serious note, a lyric from 1996 has proven to be ominously prophetic in 2023: “They don’t gotta burn the books, they just remove ‘em.” To me that is less about politics than freedom of thought vs. oppression. Rage already knew that dangerous scenario was possible.

For me she is one of the artists that always come to mind when thinking about 90s music. The Album Jagged Little Pill was packed with great songs like You Oughta Know, Ironic or Hand in My Pocket etc. It is probably one of the best albums of the 90s, although I also like many of her later songs like Thank U. In terms of choosing possible reactions I think most of the studio recordings sound better because the instruments are kinda too loud on many live performances of the 90s but it is also a must to see at least one of her live performances.
