One of my favroite bands of all time is RATM. They did rap/rock (numetal) whatever u wanna call it, far and beyond better than anyone else. I know LG doesn't like the vocal style of Zach de la Roacha, but without him is isn't RATM is is Audioslave. Tom Morrello one of the most innovative guitarists since Jimi Hendrix as far as his ability to bring new and refreshing sounds from the electric guitar. Also Morello is one of the best riff creators. Many people overlook the great riffs in songs like "Wake Up" "Killing In The Name Of". "Bulls On Parade", "Sleep Now In Fire", "Calm Like A Bomb" and many more. He also showcased his acoustic skills in his band " The Night Watchmen" Brad Wilk is an underrated drummer. One sets them apart from all the other numetal bands is their strong in your face political content. As a youth and as an adult RATM is still the best band to listen to when u want to take your frustrations out on Uncle Sam. RATM easily is one of the top 5 bands of the nineties.
