i've thought about making this poll so many times over the past few years but the thought of it becoming a two horse race between "Killing" and "Bulls" just depressed me so i didn't bother

my high school band performed "yellow ledbetter" by pearl jam and "killing in the name of" at our senior year talent show.

poor markers having to make the same weak joke twice

xxxp my other talent show experiences:
- rapping "parents just dont understand" at the talent show in 3rd grade- auditioning for the talent show in 4th grade with "blame it on the rain," not making the cut ;_;

My favorite 45 seconds are the start of Killing In the Name Of, but I don't like the rest of the song as much as I like the rest of Bulls on Parade or Renegades.
Bonus points for the Down Rodeo came on when I was driving back from Westwood to the apartment I lived in on the outskirts of Beverly Hills, and I detoured down Rodeo Dr. and turned the radio all the way up for fun. Even though mostly it reminded me that the most of the wealthy people one sees on Rodeo Drive are not exactly the grandchildren of slaveholders.

Bullet in the Head. The way it builds is ludicrously exciting. Amazing that they pretty much had the whole album written and recorded within a few weeks of getting together. They knew exactly what they were doing.
Admire No Shelter for it's shitting-where-you-eat lyric and video.

rage were hella corny and one dimensional but i'll be damned if any band in the 90's as popular as they were did big dumb undeniable riffs as well as they did.

I have to say, few major selling bands of the era had such a high level of WTFness about them. Case in point, how they turned de la Rocha losing his voice before a gig into this NSFW and rather embarrassing photo-op.*

Rise Against have picked up the mantle of 'popular radio band with strident politics and humorless frontman and heavyhanded statement videos with the word against in their name' but it's just nto as much fun because there's no rapping or woop woop guiturntablism

the way guitar magazines used to jack off over morello was disgusting.

great mosh pit riffer tho
