The Night Watchman and his Soul Power
Tom Morello deserves a lot of love. He has been part of so many politically outspoken bands and, of course, his background kinda (like mine) left him with no choice but to raise a little hell or however much (hell-raising)it takes ... to set things right.
His first album,with Lock Up, released by Geffen records was Something Bitchin this way Comes; this album apparently was lost in the whole grunge-rock era.
Disappointed with his perceived lack of success with Lock Up, he found Zach and together with some stellar others they formed Rage Against the Machine ...
One of my favorites:
Killing in The Name
The lyrics aren't terribly hard to get. AND I looked and found a better video where they have lots of shirts off. Yeah baby. Tom Morello shirtless, I can work with that. It's his MIND that's hot. But the body's top-notch, too.
... three of these Rage guys then moved forward with Chris Cornell to form Audioslave.
(though Tommy still affiliates/reunites with Rage Against the Machine for awesome political experiences)
Audioslave is apparently where most of the hottest artists in America will work out their talents for awhile if we're lucky. Chris Cornell et.al. say it's over but I don't buy it. They're too awesome together. Just some strong personalities. Audioslave smacked me in the head with their cool just when I needed them. Friend handed me the cd one day, boyfriend burned a copy it was so hot --- jammed --- still jamming to it.
I am not your blowing wind I am the lightning
Tom Morello has a jammin MySpace page and is also billed as The One Man Revolution.
A true prophet and necessary man of substance of our times.
