GEEK SHEEK REVOLUTION

ARTIST: RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE
ALBUM: RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE
SONG: BULLET IN YOUR HEAD
DATE: NOVEMBER 3, 1992
STATUS: ACQUIRED


Rage never fits easily into any compilation. They care too much and they rock too mighty. Then again, what makes for good political rock, maybe doesn't make for great politics, which is an entirely different level of confusion.  When does patronizing an artist transgress into endorsement. Its too easy to turn poetic lyrics into simplistic ideologies, and to infer simplistic ideologies from poetic lyrics. 

In any event, Rage is right on this count, its better to be educated and prepared to fire the mental bullets than to have them fired at you.
