I was not expecting this, at all. Generally I want to delve into vocal analysis here on this channel, but upon hearing the emotional connection Rage Against The Machine has with its lyrics and stylization, I was immediately intrigued. "Killing In The Name" was the song our patrons chose a few months ago that failed the internal polling we do, but I felt the message was poignant enough to still take a look at. I am pleasantly surprised!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Rage Against The Machine for the first time, performing "Killing In The Name”.

It's a bit unnerving how some people have 'turned' against the band, and call them 'sold'. The same kind of folks that grew old and started asking very obviously political bands to "stay out of politics and stick to music". Music like this, for good or bad, will always be relevant because injustice takes many forms, and we need a reminder, and a meaningful way to protest. We've become a bit too indifferent, and we need anthems.

Another fun fact, as a result of the Christmas #1 they were invited to perform the song live on BBC Radio, they were asked to cut the expletives for live daytime listening and just sing "Screw you I won't do what you tell me" to which they agreed. Anyway the moment rolls around and de la Rocha sings the lead in "I won't do what you tell me" as it builds and builds until the drop where he screams "FUCK YOU I WON'T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME!" and carries on until the end. The radio version where the DJs cut the feed is available on here, and the full version where they were being filmed is also.

This song has been played to death for 30+ years. Between cover bands, 90s countdowns, alternative rock radio stations - and yet, watching her listen to it for the first time and breaking it down, touching on all the little points I haven't even thought about for 2 decades - make it feel like I'm hearing it for the first time too. Chills. A weird dynamic, as I know what's coming and can't wait to see her reaction!

Just a girl growing up in Scotland, having SO many different kinds of music give me SO much to help me through. RATM felt so important to me and has continued to do so even though I'm old now! But THEN having you explain to me in YOUR language why and how it has the effect it does adds a whole other layer of meaning and power to my experience that I never even knew was possible. You did the same with the SOAD songs. I love the inclusivity in you bring so up for looking at this music and genre, and how much you are helping me understand the power of music I love in a way I haven't heard before. It means SO much Elizabeth. I love how you're not scared of the edginess, I love how you are so emotionally connected to it, and so authentic in your experience, and we get to see that. It's really special. I'm an art psychotherapist working with kids who've experienced complex and often brutal traumas. They often bring music into their therapy work in ways that helps me understand the multiple layers of its power and meaning. Music has been a fundamental part to my own journey through life, so woven with difficulties and joys. So to have you show me, and translate the effects of all the parts of songs and voices in your particular way, with the lovely way you have about you, with such a height of skill, experience, talent - and heart - it's so powerful, enjoyable, fascinating, special, full of meaning about what music does for us humans. I watch your videos smiling, chuckling and often tearing up too of course. THANK YOU!!! Sending you lots of love over the water and through the air, from Jo in Glasgow 🤍✨️🌟✨️😀✨️🙏✨️

Much respect for keeping the full song intact and not censoring the end. I know you like to keep your content fairly clean and family-friendly, but it's such an important part of the song. Too much would be lost without it, and your musical ear clearly understood that. This is such a powerful protest song. Most of Rage's music can be classified as protest music. This one stands in a league of its own, though. It's like they managed to bottle pure anger and frustration and then transformed that into music. The words are like a blunt force object and Zach just beats the listener over the head with it relentlessly until you get the message. I hope we get to see more Rage on the channel. Their lyric are all very politically charged so I would understand if you choose to steer clear but they have some powerful music. Immense lyrical content to break down and Tom Morello is a wizard on the guitar.

I believe he is using a pedal to pitch shift the notes. There are also other FX in there to create the sound, (possibly wah/envelope filtering, and tremelo) but the up and down is the pitch shift pedal. He is performing it like a wah almost where he initiates a note and then pitches it up and down. I think it is moving an octave and with him playing fairly far up the scale on the guitar, it creates those high frequencies we don't hear from guitars as well as that cat sound you are hearing. That sound is the initial pitch being shifted up. If you plucked it out on the piano I think you would see the octave move. In some of the shots of him playing, you can see he is just playing one note, but the pitch goes up and down.

Tom Morello is a guitar god. While other bands of their time were tapping into rap influences by adding on DJ's, backing tracks, and scratches. Morello figured out how to add all those layers with guitar feedback, unconventional picking, and effects pedals. Definitely a band worth listening to more for their pure creativity.

yes agreed. also piggybacking off this, Tom considers himself the DJ in the band

This song has ALWAYS given me chills. Kinda like my body knew how important the words were before I even understood the full significance as a child. So happy you enjoyed Rage. They were a huge part of informing a whole generation and got us to look at we could try to use our privilege to fight oppression.

Back in the day, if I had a bad day as a teenager that sometimes felt like everyone was against you, this would not be the best album to put on your discman and go across town haha. It always gave me the feeling that I literally was superman, able to kick everyone's ass when needed. Much later on (I am not US and English native) I understood what all this was about. It goes to show how well emotions are being expressed across music.

It’s too bad you can pretty much call them rage for the machine now.

It’s crazy than every time you’re analyzing a song of my teenage years, you’re able to put words on every single thing I was never been able to say, before it was just feeling, but now I know how explain it 😜🤟 Thanks you, you’re are the best in what you did👌

I have a new appreciation of this song thanks to your analysis. I was a teenager when it came out, and in Australia, and didn't know the background that inspried it. Thank you.

The repetition takes you through a whole journey from examining an idea, through trying to screaming it in the faces of the people it needs to be screamed at.

It is also talking about being the victim of propaganda "those who died are justified for wearing the badge They're the chosen whites" is being told to you over an over until when as a listener you break away from it. they hit that idea home with the addition of "now you're under control". Even angry/bigoted/awful people who are fighting against you are sometimes victims too, they just don't know it.

It's definitely their most well known song, but I feel like the highly repetitive nature (while is serves a very specific purpose) doesn't really demonstrate the lyricism of a lot of their other work.
