Rage Against the Machine biography

Los Angeles, California, United States (1991 – 2000, 2007 – present)
The band’s continual members are vocalist Zack De La Rocha, guitarist Tom Morello (who also records as a solo artist under the name “The Nightwatchman”), bassist Tim Commerford and drummer Brad Wilk. Rage Against the Machine are noted for their blend of punk rock, hip hop, heavy metal and funk as well as their revolutionary politics and Socialist lyrics and imagery (including use of the former-USSR Red Army white-outlined star emblem, as well as images of Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara, and the red EZLN star). Rage Against the Machine drew their inspiration from early metal instrumentation, as well as rap acts such as Public Enemy and Afrika Bambaataa. The group’s music is based primarily on de la Rocha’s rhyming styles and powerful stage energy, and Morello’s unorthodox guitar techniques.

A Million Miles Lyrics by lostprophets

I hear you screaming but I know that you don't mean it and its
All gone wrong now
I get the feeling that its gone and its the reason that I
Feel so dark now
Too much inside, too much in life
Define your point of view
I know your leaving, though I think that my times fleeting but yet
you don't see it
5, 4, 3, 2, 1

[chorus:]
Gone, once you shone, I move on
though I still find time to hide
It's all buried deep inside, so it
Looks like you've found a way to reach my heart
And take it all back to the start of this (though I'm)
A million miles from home

Maybe your reasons, keep on changing through the seasons
Only time could tell now
Don't stem the bleeding, cause I m sure it has some meaning still you
Feel so dark now
Too much inside, too much in life
Define your point of view
Are you still leaving, maybe you should start believing but still
You don't see it
5, 4, 3, 2, 1

[chorus x2]

A million miles from home

a New Transmission Lyrics by lostprophets

Take, take, take, all my time, all my company
Take everything from me
Fake, fake, fake all these things that you say to me
Nothing that I want to believe
I think the time has come to set it straight
I need to change this frequency
'Cause everyone just says the same old thing to me

Get up!
Get up!

Your shattered crown, it ties me down
'Cause there's no sun when you're around
Your righteous lies, you slip and slide
Now I want you to just
(Fade out)
Static in my stereo man
(Fade out)
A new transmission's calling, here we go!

Say, say, say anything that you want to me
I'm still not gonna agree
I'm not gonna be a part, be a part of this
I'm not what you want me to be.
Because I need some time to set this straight
I'm gonna forward everything I say
Tell everyone to say the same old thing to me.

Get up!

Your shattered crown, it drags me down
'Cause there's no sun when you're around
Your righteous lies, you slip and slide
Now I want you to just
(Fade out)
Static in my stereo man
(Fade out)
A new transmission's calling...
A new transmission's calling, here we go!

Woah Woah A new transmission
Woah Woah A new transmission

Your shattered crown, it drags me down
'cause theres no sun when you're around
Your righteous lies, you slip and slide
Now I want you to just
(Fade out)
Static in my stereo man
(Fade out)
A new transmission's calling...
Change the channel, flick the switches

A new transmission's calling
A new transmission's calling, here we go!
