Not the Best, But Worthy...
|
The now defunct Rage Against the Machine (all members except vocalist Zack De La Rocha can be found in Audioslave) put out four albums and three DVD's in their 8-year career. I've heard (and loved) all the albums and after seeing this, I've seen 2 DVD's. The other one I saw was the one that was at The Grand Olympic Auditorium, Rage's last show. This was put out not long before that...The performances are better on the other DVD, this DVD is better for Bonus Features and you get to see (a little) what the band is like offstage and out of the studio. Out of the 4 band members, you hear the most from Zack de la Rocha. I think if you've ever listened to his lyrics, you realize the dude is smart. Hearing him speak and interview people (as well as the intercut documentary sequence included during the concert) you realize he's really smart AND he knows what he's talking about. Tom Morello (guitarist) is a Harvard graduate and also appears to be pretty smart. The other members Brad Wilk (drums) and Tim Commerford (drums), don't speak that much. Well, Wilk doesn't. Commerford doesn't say anything anywhere. The show is great, everyone's in top-form as far as performances...But Zack delays some of his vocals a little bit. For people who don't know what I mean...Instead of "The microphone explodes, shattering the molds" it's "The microphone (inhales), shattering da...Molds."
