I'm not surprised. What were they thinking playing amphitheaters with no supporting acts? Looks like the days of riding the coattails of Rage Against The Machine fame have ended.

Nobody cares unless it's the actual rage against the machine band.
Seemed foolhardy from the start. Whoever in their mgmt or that worked for the promoter that thought they could carry a nat'l tour in such large venues with no co-headline should be fired. This is a 2000-3500 capacity club band. No shame in that.
Non-profits of Rage
^^^ there's some low hanging fruit
<------ drops mic. Leaves stage... forever.
The publicity/interviews for this project have been horrendous. Whether or not you feel like this is a good idea, it's hard to argue that.
Tim Commerford never helps anything; just keep your mouth shut, please. Chuck D and Tim C were on Opie & Jimmy a few weeks back and it was just embarrassing. I can usually separate artist(s) from their beliefs, but I'm not so sure in this case.
The lack of "Down Rodeo" when they have Chuck D should say a lot.

what is this shit
Holy shit a new song from the main man himself!
http://www.metalsucks.net/2016/09/08...-track-decade/
This new track is sick, and features production from El-P. Good stuff.
What piqued my interest the most is that El-P produced the track.
I really hope this isn't a one off but a start for more things to come.
Specifically a whole album with El-P producing, and maybe some guest artists within El's circle would be phenomenal.
EL-P today on twitter:
"thank god i can finally say publicly HERES A ZACK DE LA ROCHA SONG I PRODUCED.
the ZDR the album is happening. 2017.
and thats all the info im authorized to give out ; )
and yes this is new material made this year and yes there is more where that came from."
I heard it earlier today. Holy fuck, it is incredible!!!!

Best Of meaning hits, or Best Of meaning best songs? If the latter, do not ever in your life skip:
Walk unseen past tha graves an tha gates, born without a face
One motive no hope
and then jesus christ that mosh part at the end? FUCK

i wont argue with any of the above selections, but....Bullet in the Head needs to be included.
Thoughts on the Prophets of Rage album?
I have it but haven't listened yet.
i like, but like feel like something missing without Zach being involved never read anything on why he wasn't
-Louie
I gave @elevenism my top tracks for his compilation, but yeah, the whole album is awesome! -not a bad song on it-
Lollapalooza 2008; air raid siren->Testify crowd instantly shifted 50’ to the middle. Like watching really closely placed dominos tilt one way then back the other. Testify/Bulls/people of the sun, zach stops the show bc people are getting crushed, bombtrack, know your enemy, show stops again...amazing.
So do I.

Tom once again proves that he has no idea what the fuck he is talking about
They’ve all said dumb shit, but I agree as far as AC/DC goes — love the music, hate the borderline misogyny in their lyrics.
I said I wasn’t buying any more music in boxed sets this year, but I found a great deal on the RATM XX box so I ordered it. Can’t wait to go through it all when it arrives!
