Rage Against The Machine – Killing In The Name (1992)
Por Daniel Arellano
En el día de hoy el post está dedicado a un grupo que tocará en Chile, por primera vez, el próximo 11 de octubre en la Elipse del Parque O’Higgins. Me refiero a Rage Against The Machine quienes nos hacen volver, sonoramente hablando, a 1992 cuando conquistaban el mundo con Killing In The Name, banda formada por Zack de la Rocha, Tom Morello, Tim Commerford y Brad Wilk.
Con un discurso político potente y enfocado a ideas de izquierda Rage Against The Machine lanzaba en 1992 su disco debút y en su portada aparecía la fotografía de Thích Quảng Đức, un monje budista que se inmoló en protesta al tratamiento que se les daba bajo el gobierno de Vietnam del Sur, el 11 de junio de 1963.
La canción es una crítica al racismo imperante en la policia norteamericana y los organismos de seguridad de ese país, aludiendo a que miembros de estos formarían parte del Ku Klux Klan.
Killing In The Name es un tema duro, fuerte, explicito pero que mantiene el discurso de la banda, crítica del actual sistema neoliberal y de la política norteamericana, y que sigue sonando potente hoy como en 1992.

Rage against the Machine no es mas que un grupo mimado de resentidos sociales, comunistas amargados y llenos de odio y envidia, admioradores de basuras humanas como el Che Guevara.
Ese tipo de grupo no puede crear mas que malas vibras en los jovenes que los escuchan, tan resentidos como ellos.
Mariluz.
Tengo una duda, a ver como te lo explico:
– mimado (despectivo)
– resentido social (despectivo)
– comunista ( intentas ser despectivo)
– amargados (despectivo)
– odio (despectivo)
– envidia (despectivo)
– basura (despectivo)
– malo (negativo)
Eres un «tipo» un poco negativo, parece que intolerante puesto que no soportas a gente con cualquier otra ideologia. La musica es arte te puede gustar o no, sin embargo, sufres algun tipo de paranoia si crees tus gustos son los buenos y los del resto son los malos. En tu caso incluso puedo decir que tipo de paranoia es la tuya «Sindrome de Copernico».
Asi que todos los que escuhamos la musica que a ti no te gusta somos unos resentidos… vale vale…
Eres un modrego.
A Mahler le consideraban nazi y a tchaikovsky maricón. Bueno, pues a mi su musica me gusta igual.
