zach de la rocha is needed rigth now…

Zack de la rocha is bad ass he needs to get back together with rage so they can record another album because when rage was together they were bad ass. And audioslave is a good band but rage is much better.

OK lets face it, Rage was one of the greatest bands of all time but they are done now, I think that Zack did what he wanted and left, he kicked a hole in the speaker pulled the pulg then he jet… simple. They wount come back because they are done, and Audioslave means nothing!

LOL @ LOBSTERS PROBABLY AINT EVEN GOT A CAR. BUT SERIOUSLY YOU LOT NEED TO GO BACK TO LISTENING TO YOUR DEF TONES AND WATCHING YOUR AMERICAN IDOL. ZACK DOESNT NEED TO DO SHIT AND ITS PROBABLY THE REASON HE HAS TOOK THE BACK FENCE CUZ ALOT OF PEOPLE MEDIA INCLUDED TRY AND PLACE TREMENDOUS AMOUNTS OF PRESSURE ON HIM LIKE HES A FUCKING ICON, DONT ANY OF YOU FUCKING RETARDS REALISE THAT THATS EVERYTHING ZACKS AGAINST. ZACKS DONE MORE AND INSPIRED MORE PEOPLE THAN YOU PROBABLY EVEN SPOKE TOO IN YOUR ENTIRE LIFETIME.

we need zack more than ever.

Zack is lost in the jungles of Chiapas fighting for the Zapatista’s cause.

Rage Against the Machine is the greatest hard rock/heavy metal band ever. Any one who disagrees is a blind fool. No one had that kind of anger and explosive power in their music while still being melodic and driving. Too many “hard” bands think they are the shit but do nothing but create endless, mindless noise that does nothing but give intelligent musicians migranes. Audioslave is a quality band as well. Their first album is a masterpeice. The new one is sweet, too.

I SAID…RATM and of course Zach were great for a little while, he got to sound like a mysognistic little fuck- when Audiosaliva came up, i was psyched- but they kinda suck.It just don’t work. Soundgarden is the shit anyway.Rusty Cage, anyone??)

this is my first shit on this thing- RATM,Zach was great sometimes and a whining misanthrope the next- when audioslave was put up, i was psyched- but i kinda think they suck-soundgarden was better than any of it (rusty cage, anyone??)

I’m not trying to start a fight or anything, but has anyone actually noticed that Audioslave is a pretty lame band? They’re just totally overhyped and kinda suck. I’m sorry to say this out loud. Someone had to.

leave zack alone! hes alrite really! bit annoying but…

I just farted. Rolling Stone… are you going to delete this post as well…. fucking free forum for comments, my ass.

Stop looking to Zach to be your savior. If you don’t like the way things are going, get off your ass and do something about it.

RATM was a great band as is Audioslave.

he is in africa trying to join my band “Alive n Bolder”.

he is in africa trying to join my band “Alive n Bolder”. he wants to be wild in the city

Gee, I pray that Zack can bring us world peace. I think Jessica Simpson’s jugs have as good a chance.

Aside from their first album,RATM were boring,redundant…even annoying.At least Public Enemy managed two albums before they sputtered out of innovation. Forget Jello-he ripped off his band mates, and threw a giant question mark over a whole body of brilliant work.Canadian hardcore punk pioneers D.O.A., on the other hand, are still working the right side of the fence….playing revolution music on their own terms…as they have done since Zack was getting time-outs in daycare. Leave him to enjoy his Mercedes and Starbucks. You all paid for it…s-u-c-k-e-r-s.

Oh yeah, there is also a piece here on this site entitled “8 Reasons Bush should drop everything and Save Darfur.” This after three years of bitching about how Iraq was no threat to us and an imperialist occupation. Now we should save Darfur? Here is one reason why we shouldn’t.

“It is very clear that there is a plan to redraw the region. The main purpose being the security of Israel.” All Darfur peace rallys around the world are “invariably organized by Zionist Jewish Organizations.” -Omar Hassan al-Bashir, President of Sudan. That’s right, another anti-semitic, good old fashioned Jew hating, Western hating Muslim. WAKE UP!!!

JLI… I ain’t no right winger. Unlike you, I don’t belong to any clubs. I just try to find the truth. Dan Rather doing the right thing? Are you referring to the forged documents? Do some research! Type in to any search engine Rather+Documents and see what you find. The NY Times, AP, CNN, LA Times, Washington Post, Time, Newsweek are not owned by Republicans. Look it up before you speak. How in the age of the internet can people be so ignorant of the facts? Any issue you really care about can easily be researched from hundreds of different viewpoints in a matter of minutes. But people like you JLI choose to be an ignorant fool. Rolling Stone routinely plays to the laziness of its’ readers by advocating dishonesty and completely slanted journalism. Just one case that immediately pops to mind… Remember the lengthy story about the Marine who shot up a bunch of cops because Bush fucked him over by sending him to Iraq and ruined his fragile psyche? RS didn’t mention that he was a gang-banger completely wired on coke who decided he was gonna kill some pigs. MORE LIES. I think both political parties are fucked and there isn’t much difference between the two, which makes the anti-Bush venom all the more ridiculous. Your team is not in power and that’s all that matters to you. WAKE UP and get in the game. There are millions of people who want to kill you, not because of our policies, but because they have twisted around a religious meaning. Research it… try these words/phrases… Wahhabiism… actual texts of speeches by OBL… history of the crusades… history of Palestine. Read Bernard Lewis…
The truth is that we are committing national suicide out of White Guilt that has been indoctrinated into us since pre-school combined with vanity driven laziness. There is, indeed, an imperialist crusade going on in the world. It started in the 7th century in a small area in the middle east and has since swallowed up all of North and Central Africa (formerly Christian) and moved East through Afghanistan and into Indonesia and other Southeast Asian countries (formerly buddhist). It is at it’s most bloody at it’s frontier of expansion…. Darfur, Sudan, Chechnya, Kashmir in India and oh yeah, just yesterday in Thailand. Wake up and do your research before Sharia comes to your town!!

Audioslave sucks ass. And morello has lost his touch. Zack is the man. I would however be all for a RATM rejuvenation !

A reply to MORE LIES

Mainstream Media? What category
would you put FOX and ABC in? Those two are about as Republican as you can get. It is a game some like to play. The poor right wingers. The media is against us. The media is actually for them. It is controlled by them. Dan Rather tried to do the right thing and look what happened to him. Just one example of many. Remember Media=Corporate America. They are the same thing. Corporate America likes to get tax breaks from their good friends on the right.

Axl is putting Zack to shame in terms of ’solo activity’ - his tracks leaked. At least we know he’s doing something.

Yeah, Zack, hello?

I just stumbled onto this by chance. You kids have no idea what you are talking about. You are too young to voice your opinions. Go hang out at the mall and smoke cigs. Amatures!

MORE LIES: The nineties were the most peaceful and prosperous times in our history? The Dow is 20% higher than it was when Clinton left in spite of a massive terror attack on our financial hub and two wars. And every year of the nineties had a vicious terroritst attack on our soldiers, embassies or interests that went without a response… leading to the mess we are now in. Look it up before you disagree. Check your facts. Stop being led around on a leash by the lying Mainstream Media.

Am I the only one here who likes Audioslave with chris Cornell. Man I listen to RAtM all the time but I love the sound that Audioslave has too. I would really love for Zach to come out with his own CD instead of breaking up Audioslave. Zach on a solo career would be amazing.

Wasn’t this a article in the Onion about a year ago. It was Titled ” Rage Against the Machine where are you when we need you most”
I think it would be great to hear more political stuff , but when RS has Justin “Whinny ass” Timerlake on the Cover. How can I take this question Seriously??? The Music is out there find it for yourself.

DHP is onto somthing. Where is Jello, where are all of these so called “punks”? Zack Raged against a lot of things…but he spent more time talking about how much of a ganster he was. We still have the real genius of Rage in Tom Morello, who still participates in the political community. Zack wouldn’t hurt, but he really wouldn’t add much.

We need artist like Zach. Yeah we have NOFX,Michael Franti,Neil Young, and etc… With the music being glossed over by mindless rants about how fabulous the crap that they spoon feed the public in the form of music.. Things aren’t fabulous!!!
We have an illegal war, a mindless president, poverty is on the rise, and too many other issues… People need to wake up and smell the bullshit.. That was Zachs message. I’d rather have Zach than Black eye Peas, Britney Spears and all the other shit that is presented as meaningful music…

I’ve been told (and I’m not joking) that he’s been spotted cruising around LA in his Mercedes SUV, drinking (gasp) Starbucks. Some revolutionary.

As you said, he was super pissed before when things were nowhere near what they are now. And you ask where Zach is now? After the last few years of political bullshit, his fucking head exploded in disbelief.

And for political reasons who needs him??? We have a voice and that voice have a name… Michael Moore.

Who needs Zack De La Rocha??? I hope he stay in the shadows, i don’t wanna see a RATM reunion, one of the most overrated bands of the 90’s. (Well, i think the 90’s are overrated as well, if not for Britpop i don’t even want to remember that decade).

Where is Zak? Hell. where’s Jello Biafra? Yeah, I know he did that record with the Melvins, but what better time for someone with authenticity and cred (sorry Zak)to rant against the Bushies?

Zach has been silent for far too long. I wish he would release his solo material. Better yet, seeing Rage Against the Machine reunite would be wonderful for music. In the late 90s, they were the only band that mattered.

RATM was not overrated. They were superior to most bands musicianship wise, and their lyrics were poetic. They pioneered rap rock before it turned to shit. Zach De La Rocha was a hybrid of Chuck D and Bob Dylan. The music industry needs him. The United States has taken many dark turns since Rage broke up, and I feel they should reunite. Audioslave is pretty good, especially their recent album. However, they seem to have run their course. Music needs more bands like RATM. They were real, and they stood up for what they believed in. Above all else, the music was phenomenal.

I am glad that you are worried about your country and it’s policies. Zack is not the only big mouth in the world. In calling for him you have made a statement using the resourses at your disposal to get your point across. You also entertained us all and got us all engaged. Good work.

A humorless, self-righteous strait-edge dillhole is the last person we need to “stand up” for the good of the world. Anarchist legend Emma Goldman once said she wanted nothing to do with a revolution she couldn’t dance to, and I think that applies to anything Zack would do or say w/out Rage Against the Machine. He’s a worthless, bitter prude.

I would like to see a rocker or rapper giving voice to the literally millions of Muslims who are enraged at the hijacking of their religion by violent extremists. Peaceful Muslims all over the world have to watch as madmen blow themselves up in the name of Allah.

Zack De La Rocha has spoken out against corrupt capitalists and a government that exponentially limits political rights and civil liberties. There should be more people like him to speak out against these things. Just because you have never personally experienced trouble with capitalism and government doesn’t mean that people outside your little bubble haven’t.

Zach de la Rocha’s vision was imparted on people in the 90’s, yet there was nothing outstanding to revolt against, unlike today with the travesty that is becoming of our nation. It doesn’t take a fool to see that a ‘cold wind is blowing’, subtly losing our rights with the Patiot Act & unchallenged phone tapping, while the government hides secrets of torture camps behind the public knowledge.

Zach gave voice to those who shared the same vision as he, and more or less gave inspiration. Remember the Vietnam protestors? We never see mass amounts of protestors gathing at Washington DC to oppose the stationing of troops in Iraq. Zach would be awesome in giving people a voice again…

If you liked someone repeating the same line 40 times during a song, Zach’s your man.

Being about as big a fan of Zack’s as humanly possible I have come to realize he has moved past music. I saw him perform at the natural history musuem last year and he was in a mariachi setup and for about 20 minutes he vented with poetry but other than that he was content to sit in the background. This is the metaphor for his life now in music; not disinterested but passive and done with it, the fire in his eyes is gone. I love Zack and the albums worth of stuff he made with trent reznor is probably gold if sounds like the fahrenheit 9/11 song but he won’t put it out. Zack is done

I agree with lobster. RATM was overrated and silly. Truth in advertising would require them to be called Unfocused Rants.

“The world is turning to shit . . . ” Maybe your pathetic little part of it is. How much of a loser are you that you need help from a silly twit like Zack De La Rocha? I wouldn’t pay him to wash my car.
