Members of Rage Agains the Machine

Rage Against the Automobile is an American rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1991. The band'due south line-up consists of singer Zack de la Rocha, bassist and backing vocalist Tim Commerford, guitarist Tom Morello and drummer Brad Wilk. Critics have noted Rage Against the Machine for its "fiercely polemical music, which brewed sloganeering left wing rants confronting corporate America, cultural imperialism, and government oppression into a Molotov cocktail of punk, hip-hop, and thrash."[one]

Integral to their identity as a band, Rage Against the Machine often voiced strong criticism of the domestic and foreign policies of the Usa government. The band and its private members participated in political protests and other activism throughout its existence, and the band saw its music primarily every bit a means of spreading ideas. De la Rocha explained that "I'm interested in spreading those ideas through art, considering music has the power to cross borders, to pause military sieges and to establish existent dialogue."[2]

EZLN [edit]

The band are vocal supporters of the Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN), particularly De la Rocha, who has taken several trips to the Mexican state of Chiapas to assist their efforts. The flag of the EZLN serves every bit the primary recurring theme in the ring's visual art. Morello described the EZLN every bit "a guerrilla ground forces who represent the poor indigenous communities in southern Mexico who, for hundreds of years, have been trodden upon and sort of cast aside and which really are the lowest form on the economic-social ladder in United mexican states. In 1994, on New Years Day, there was an uprising there and they were led by the very charismatic Subcomandante Marcos and information technology'due south a group which is tremendously supportive of the well-nigh objectively poor and continues to fight for nobility, for all people in Mexico."[three] An interviewer was one time told by De la Rocha, "Our purpose in sympathizing with the Zapatistas is to help spark [real] dialogue."[2]

De la Rocha has been especially outspoken on the cause of the EZLN. He explained the importance of the cause to him personally.

It is important for me, equally a pop artist, to make clear to the governments of the United States and United mexican states that despite the strategy of fear and intimidation to foreigners, despite their weapons, despite their clearing laws and military machine reserves, they volition never be able to isolate the Zapatista communities from the people in the United States... Through concerts, videos, interviews, dissemination of information at concerts, and our songs' lyrics we have placed within reach of immature people, our audience, the experiences of the Zapatistas; we act every bit facilitators of the means in which they can participate and put them in contact with the organization and the Zapatista support committees in the United States.[4]

The EZLN and De la Rocha'due south experiences with them inspired the songs "People of the Sun", "Current of air Below" and "Without a Face" from Evil Empire,[iv] and "State of war Inside a Breath" from The Battle Of Los Angeles.[ citation needed ]

The EZLN flag has been used as a stage backdrop at all of the band'southward shows since their reunion in April 2007.[ commendation needed ]

Zack de la Rocha asked their record label, Ballsy Records, for $thirty,000 to donate to the EZLN.[five] It is not known if they complied.

Saturday Nighttime Live incident [edit]

On Apr ten, 1996, the band was scheduled to perform two songs on the NBC comedy variety show Saturday Night Live. The prove was hosted that night by Republican ex-presidential candidate and multi-millionaire Steve Forbes. According to Tom Morello, "RATM wanted to stand in precipitous juxtaposition to a billionaire telling jokes and promoting his apartment revenue enhancement by making our ain argument."[six] [ unreliable source ]

To this end, producer Brendan O'Brien suspended two upside-down American flags from their amplifiers.[ commendation needed ] Seconds before they took the stage to perform "Bulls on Parade", SNL and NBC sent stagehands in to pull the flags down.[7] [ unreliable source ] The inverted flags, says Morello, represented:

Our contention that American democracy is inverted when what passes for commonwealth is an balloter choice between 2 representatives of the privileged course. America'due south freedom of expression is inverted when you lot're free to say anything yous want to say until it upsets a corporate sponsor. Finally, this was our way of expressing our opinion of the show'due south host, Steve Forbes.[6] [ failed verification ]

The band'southward first attempt to hang the flags during a pre-telecast rehearsal on Thursday was stopped past SNL's producers, who "demanded that we accept the flags down," according to Morello. "They said the sponsors would be upset, and that because Steve Forbes was on, they had to run a 'tighter' bear witness." SNL also told the band it would mute objectionable lyrics in "Bullet in the Head" (which was supposed to be RATM's second song), and insisted that the song exist bleeped in the studio considering Forbes had friends and family there.[half-dozen] [ unreliable source ]

On the dark of the show, post-obit the removal of the flags during the outset performance, the ring was approached past SNL and NBC officials and ordered to immediately leave the building. Upon hearing this, RATM bassist Commerford reportedly stormed Forbes' dressing room, throwing shreds from one of the torn down flags.[ citation needed ]

Morello noted that members of the Sabbatum Night Live bandage and crew, whom he declined to name, "[e]xpressed solidarity with our actions, and a sense of shame that their show had censored the performance."[half dozen] [ unreliable source ]

Radio Free L.A. [edit]

Radio Gratuitous Los Angeles was a radio show held by the band on January 20, 1997, the night of Pecker Clinton's second inauguration every bit President.[8] The bear witness comprised segments and interviews featuring Michael Moore, teen rights activist Emily Hodgson, Leonard Peltier, Chuck D, Mumia Abu-Jamal, UNITE, Noam Chomsky, Amy Ray of the Indigo Girls, and Subcomandante Marcos of the Zapatistas.[9] These were intercut with musical performances past Morello, De la Rocha, Flea and Stephen Perkins playing unlike versions of Rage songs, and also Beck and Cypress Hill playing their own songs. The band organized and played the show in response to the re-election of Clinton:

That election had resulted in one of the everyman voter turnouts in the history of the country, every bit more and more Americans came to realize that their authorities was not in their hands, just in the hands of large business organization. Radio Free Fifty.A. provided a musical and political gathering indicate for the bulk of Americans—and immature people especially—who rightly felt left out of the 'autonomous process.'[9]

The 2-hour bear witness was syndicated by over 50 commercial U.S. radio stations[10] and streamed live from the band's website. Transcripts of the interviews are freely available online.[11] [12]

"Slumber At present in the Fire" video shoot [edit]

On January 26, 2000, filming of the music video for "Slumber Now in the Fire" caused the doors of the New York Stock Exchange to be closed and the band to be escorted from the site by security.[xiii] Directed past Michael Moore, the video was shot on the steps of Federal Hall National Memorial, across from the NYSE in downtown Manhattan. The band invited fans to join them in the shoot and approximately 300 showed upward.[14] Later the breakdown of the shoot, the band members, forth with many of their fans, stormed the doors of the NYSE. De la Rocha was shoved away from the entrance after briefly entering through a side door.[fifteen] They then succeeded in forcing the NYSE to lock its doors during the middle of the trading day.[16] After the incident, Morello was quoted saying, "Our protest stopped trading at the stock exchange for the last ii hours of the day. I gauge nosotros stopped downsizing for at least a couple of hours."[14] Footage of enthusiastic Wall Street employees headbanging to the music, police force attempting to take Tim Commerford's bass every bit he refused to quit playing, and the emergency doors of the New York Stock commutation endmost were all used in the final video. "We decided to shoot this video in the belly of the beast", said Moore, who was arrested during the shooting of the video: despite having a federal permit for the location, they did non take a audio permit.[13] Only Moore was arrested in relation to the incident.[15]

The video was nominated at the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards for Best Rock Video. After losing the award to Limp Bizkit'southward "Interruption Stuff", bassist Tim Commerford climbed upwards the fake palm tree behind the podium and refused to come up down. He then began shaking the set, which appeared equally though it might plummet.[17] Commerford was eventually coaxed downwards and was ultimately arrested later on a cursory scuffle.[17] Tim'due south deportment are widely believed to be the impetus for vocaliser Zack de la Rocha'due south get out and the cease of Rage.[xviii]

2000 Democratic National Convention [edit]

RATM played a gratuitous concert at the 2000 Autonomous National Convention in protest of the two-party system. The band had been considering playing a protestation concert there since April that year.[nineteen] Although they were at first required past the Metropolis of Los Angeles to perform in a minor venue at a considerable distance, early on in August a United States district court estimate ruled that the City's request was too restrictive and the Metropolis subsequently allowed the protests and concert to exist held at a site across from the DNC.[19] In response, the Los Angeles Police force Department increased security measures, including a 12 ft fence and patrolling by a minimum of 2,000 officers wearing riot gear, as well as additional horses, motorcycles, squad cars and police helicopters.[20] A police spokesperson said they were "gravely concerned because of security reasons".[20]

During the concert, De la Rocha said to the crowd, "brothers and sisters, our democracy has been hijacked,"[nineteen] and later also shouted "nosotros accept a right to oppose these motherfuckers!"[21] Afterward the operation, a small group of attendees congregated at the point in the protest area closest to the DNC, facing the police officers, throwing rocks,[22] and possibly engaging in more violent activity, such as throwing glass, concrete and water bottles filled with "noxious agents,"[23] spraying ammonia on police and slingshotting rocks and steel balls.[24] The police force soon alleged the gathering an unlawful assembly,[21] turned off the electric supply, interrupting performing band Ozomatli,[22] and informed the protestors that they had fifteen minutes to disperse on pain of abort.[25] Some of the protestors remained, including 2 young men who climbed the argue and waved black flags, and were subsequently sprayed in the face up with pepper spray.[24] Police then forcibly dispersed the crowd, using tear gas, pepper spray and safe bullets.[24] At least 6 people were arrested in the incident.[25]

The law faced astringent and wide criticism for their reaction, with an American Civil Liberties Union spokesperson saying that it was "nothing less than an orchestrated police riot."[23] Several main witnesses reported unnecessarily violent deportment and constabulary abuses, including firing on reporters[22] and people obeying police commands.[25] Police responded that their response was "outstanding" and "clearly disciplined."[25] De la Rocha said of the incident, "I don't care what fucking television set stations said, [that] the violence was caused by the people at the concert; those motherfuckers unloaded on this crowd. And I retrieve information technology'south ridiculous considering, you know, none of us had rubber bullets, none of usa had M16s, none of us had billy clubs, none of us had face shields."[26]

Footage of the protest and ensuing violence, along with an MTV News report on the incident, was included in the Live at the Grand Olympic Auditorium DVD.

2008 Republican National Convention [edit]

On September two, 2008, during the Republican National Convention, Rage Confronting the Car was scheduled to play a free show in protest of what De La Rocha chosen the power abusing party in St. Paul, Minnesota on the State Capital lawn for Ripple Effect. Tom Morello was asked past SuicideGirls to report what happened there. He said:

[We] showed up at exactly the time nosotros were scheduled to perform, and as before long as we got out of our vehicle nosotros were immediately surrounded by riot police who told us if we approached the phase we'd be arrested for playing music. They said that we were not on a permit for the 24-hour interval'due south show. We produced the allow and showed them that none of the artists that had already been playing for the previous four hours, including Anti-Flag and Michael Franti, none of the artists were listed on the permits. They just tried to use that as an excuse to stop us from playing. We were at that place right on time to play and they physically barred us from getting onto the stage because they were agape of the music we were going to play. Imagine if in Beijing during the Olympics a Chinese band whose songs were critical of the government was told they'd be arrested if they attempted to sing those songs in a public forum — in that location would accept been an international man rights outcry. Only that'south exactly what happened in Minnesota. Only this is a band that has made a living singing a song that goes 'Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me,' so we weren't about to go back to the hotel with our tails between our legs. So nosotros out-flanked the law line and went into the middle of the oversupply, and played a couple of songs passing a bull horn back and along, and it seemed to get over pretty well.[27]

On September 3, 2008, the band played a concert in Minneapolis at the Target Center, on the second mean solar day of the Republican National Convention. The band surprised the crowd when they silently stood on stage while wearing orange Guantanamo Bay-like prisoner suits with blackness hoods over their heads. They opened up with "Bombtrack."[28] An impromptu demonstration spilled out into the streets later on. 102 people were arrested as riot police ended the gathering.[29]

Iraq War, Fox News, and the "bump-off" comments controversy [edit]

At the Coachella 2007 performance, De la Rocha made an impassioned speech during "Wake Up", citing a statement by Noam Chomsky regarding the Nuremberg Trials and subsequent deportment by US presidents,[11] as follows:

A good friend of ours once said that if the same laws were applied to U.S. presidents as were applied to the Nazis subsequently World War II [...] every single i of them, every concluding rich white i of them from Truman on, would accept been hung [sic] to death and shot—and this current administration is no exception. They should be hung [sic], and tried, and shot. As any war criminal should be.[thirty]

A prune of De la Rocha's speech found its way to the Fox News program Hannity & Colmes. An on-screen headline read, "Rock group Rage Confronting the Machine says Bush admin should exist shot." Ann Coulter, a right fly commentator and a invitee on the prove, stated, "They're losers, their fans are losers, and at that place'due south a lot of violence coming from the left fly."[31]

On July 28 and 29, Rage co-headlined the hip hop festival Rock the Bells. On July 28, they made a speech during their operation of "Wake Up" just as they had done at Coachella. During this, De La Rocha made some other statement, defending the band from Fox News who he claimed had misquoted him:

A couple of months ago, those fascist motherfuckers at the Fox News Network attempted to pin this band into a corner past suggesting that we said that the president should be assassinated. Nah, what nosotros said was that he should be brought to trial as a state of war criminal and hung [sic] and shot. THAT'S what we said. And we don't dorsum abroad from the position considering the real assassinator [sic] is Bush, and Cheney and the whole administration for the lives they have destroyed here and in Iraq. They're the ones. And what they refused to air which was far more provocative in my mind and in the minds of my bandmates is this: that this organization has become so cruel and vicious and cruel that information technology needs to start wars and profit from the destruction around the world in social club to survive as a world power. THAT'southward what we said. And we refuse non to stand up, we decline to back downward from that position...[32]

On Baronial 24, RATM played Tall Valley in Wisconsin. They made another speech communication during "Wake Upwards".

Nosotros played this show at Coachella Pavilion. It was our first prove back. I said a few things from the stage, and the next day Fox News ran this whole piece about us saying that the Presidents should be assassinated. Only those fascists ever get it incorrect when they simply want to pin a band in the corner for continuing up. What nosotros said was that the whole Bush Administration should be put on trial for war crimes so hung [sic] and then shot, that'due south what nosotros said.

But besides that it made me think about something. It fabricated me think, "what are they so afraid of?" It fabricated me think about what scares them. Is it really four musicians from Los Angeles who've got a point of view? Is it really only this music and these rhythms and these words? Is that what they're scared of? I thought I'd retrieve well-nigh it and you know what? My determination is this: nah, they own't scared of united states of america, they're scared of you! They're scared that you might come up ballot fourth dimension and throw Bush-league and Cheney and all them fascists out of power! That'southward what they're scared of!

And let me say this: the Democrats are scared of you too! Considering they know that you see through their bullshit as well. Because when Bush-league was wiretapping, spying on citizens, torturing innocent people – they were supposed to be the people to defend the states from them, and they didn't do shit! So the Democrats are scared of you also. Why? Because they know they're coming to power and they're taking information technology all for granted, simply they're scared because they know that if they don't get-go fucking pulling troops from Iraq that yous're going to go and burn down every office of every Senator that doesn't do the job.

Well I will say this, that the world is watching usa at present. The whole world is watching us. The brothers and sisters in Due south America who are dealing with this imperialist violence take got their eyes on us. Our brothers and sisters in Iraq got their eyes on u.s.a.. Because nosotros are the ones that are prepared to, and going to, put an end to this nonsense. And then Wake Upwards. Come on, Wake Up! Wake Upward![ citation needed ]

Later, De la Rocha added Tony Blair, the United kingdom Prime Government minister who supported George Bush'southward 2003 invasion of Iraq, to the list of those who ought to be tried and hanged at the Reading Festival on August 22, 2008. The Reading and Leeds Festivals organizer appear afterward the 2008 festival that De la Rocha had requested Friday and Saturday slots specifically so he could exist back in the United states for the Democratic and Republican conventions taking place in the week of the 25th.[33]

Rage Against Torture [edit]

In October 2009, Rage Against the Auto, along with members of Nine Inch Nails, Pearl Jam, R.Due east.Thousand. and The Roots joined a campaign to close Guantanamo Prison, calling too for the declassification of military machine records regarding the use of music in torture.[34] Based on reports that songs past Rage and Nine Inch Nails were used in torture at the controversial facility, the group is filing for further declassification under the Liberty of Data Act.[34]

Guantanamo is known around the earth as one of the places where man beings take been tortured – from water boarding, to stripping, hooding and forcing detainees into humiliating sexual acts – playing music for 72 hours in a row at volumes simply below that to shatter the eardrums. Guantanamo may exist Dick Cheney's thought of America, simply it'southward not mine. The fact that music I helped create was used in crimes against humanity sickens me – we need to finish torture and close Guantanamo now.[35]

2010 activism and censorship in Brazil [edit]

On October nine, 2010, the RATM made its beginning gig in Brazil and played at the music festival SWU Music & Arts in Itu. Despite sound problems and some flaws in the organisation of the event, the first show on Brazilian soil had a major impact and has received practiced reviews.[36] Tom Morello wore the cap of the Landless Workers' Movement (known in Brazil merely every bit MST) during the functioning of the song "Wake Up" and the band dedicated "People of the Sun" to that social movement.[37] According to the Brazilian Independent Media Center and other alternative media news websites, the Boob tube aqueduct Multishow, which had announced that would circulate the full concert, censored the broadcast cut it curt later on but 35 minutes of its onset, at the verbal moment when the guitarist Tom Morello put on a cap of the MST. Instead of RATM's performance, the aqueduct aired the erotic television testify "Sexytime" that was expected to air 1 hr 25 minutes later.[38] The channel claimed that the circulate was interrupted due to technical problems after the public invaded the restricted area of the shooting crew;[39] [xl] it is impossible to ostend which version is true. However, it is undisputed that the praise vocalizer Zack de la Rocha made of the Brazilian Landless Workers' Movement was omitted from the Multishow Aqueduct broadcast, and censorship has occurred at least in this respect.[41] On October 10 Tom Morello stated on his Twitter account: "I empathize the network cut away when I put on the PST lid. That ways we're winning." And so corrected: "Of course that'south MST, non PST. PST stands for Mail São Paulo Triatholon."[42] [43]

Other activism [edit]

The band advocates for the release of convicted political prisoner, former Black Panther and life imprisonment inmate Mumia Abu-Jamal, for whom they wrote and recorded the track "Voice of the Voiceless" for their 1999 album The Battle of Los Angeles. The band performed at a benefit concert, and all the proceeds were donated to the International Concerned Family unit And Friends Of Mumia Abu-Jamal, and De la Rocha spoke before the United Nations Commission on Human Rights in support of Abu-Jamal.[44] The band also raised funds and awareness for political activist and bedevilled double-murderer Leonard Peltier, and documented his case in the video for "Freedom".

At a 1993 Lollapalooza appearance in Philadelphia, the band stood onstage naked for 15 minutes with duct record on their mouths and the letters PMRC painted on their chests in protestation confronting censorship by the Parents Music Resources Center. [45] Refusing to play, they stood in silence with the sound emitted being only audio feedback from Morello and Commerford'due south guitars. The band later played a free show for disappointed fans.[46] Tom Morello was arrested for ceremonious defiance in October 1997 during a spousal relationship protestation past garment workers and their supporters confronting the use of sweatshop labor by Guess?[10] Billboards subsequently appeared in Las Vegas and New York featuring a photograph of the ring with the caption "Rage Against Sweatshops: We Don't Wear Approximate – A Message from Rage Against the Automobile and UNITE (Union of Needletrades Industrial and Textile Employees). Injustice. Don't buy information technology."[10]

Some other controversial stands taken include that of the music video for the song "Bombtrack", in which RATM expresses support for the Peruvian revolutionary arrangement Shining Path and their incarcerated leader Abimael Guzmán, sentenced for the 1983 Lucanamarca massacre[47] and the Tarata bombing.[48] Over its career, the band played benefit concerts for organizations such equally Rock for Choice, the Anti-Nazi League, the United Farm Workers, children's care organization Para Los Niños and UNITE.[10] 1994 saw the band organizing Latinpalooza, a joint benefit concert for the Leonard Peltier Defense Fund, and Para Los Niños. The band too raised funds for Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting, the National Commission for Democracy in Mexico, Women Alive, and played at the Tibetan Freedom Concert on more than one occasion.[x] Album liner notes contained promotional textile for AK Press, Amnesty International, the Commission to Support the Revolution in Peru, the Hollywood Sunset Complimentary Clinic, Indymedia, Mass Mic, Parents for Stone and Rap, the Popular Resources Centre, RE: GENERATION, Refuse and Resist, Revolution Books, the Rock & Rap Confidential, and Voices in the Wilderness. When the ring headlined Reading Festival on August 22, 2008, Getafe Electrical Festival on May 30, 2008, and the Pinkpop Festival on June ane, 2008, they came on stage to the audio of a prison klaxon, dressed in orange prison house jumpsuits with blackness sacks over their heads, presumably in reference to the conditions of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay. They remained silent onstage for effectually a minute until existence led to their instruments and performing their opening song, "Bombtrack", still in the prison outfits.

In June 2010, frontman Zack de la Rocha stepped upwards his campaign to compel the state of Arizona to repeal its controversial immigration constabulary by encouraging artists to cold-shoulder performing in the state. In improver, he has said they "are going to be organizing a series of concerts that are respectful of the nature of the cold-shoulder in its attempts to isolate the Arizona government only not isolate the people."[49] Rage Against the Machine performed in Los Angeles for the first fourth dimension in 10 years on July 23, 2010, to protestation the Arizona clearing law.[50]

Paul Ryan, the Republican nominee for Vice President in the 2012 election[51] has said that he likes Ludwig van Beethoven, Rage Against the Auto and Led Zeppelin.[52] [53] Tom Morello, the atomic number 82 guitarist of Rage Against The Auto, wrote an op-ed in Rolling Stone stating that "Paul Ryan's honey for Rage Against The Car is amusing, because he is the embodiment of the car that our music has been raging against for ii decades" and "You see, the super rich must rationalize having more than they could always spend while millions of children in the U.S. go to bed hungry every nighttime".[54] [55] [56]
