Rage Against the Machine

American rap metal band

Los Angeles quartet formed in 1991 from the ashes of Tom Morello's post-Lock Up sessions — named after a phrase Zack de la Rocha wrote for his old hardcore band Inside Out. They fused metal, rap, punk, and funk into something incendiary enough to land in the Rock Hall by 2023, selling north of 16 million records along the way. You had a few stray plays in summer '06, but this really clicked that November and peaked hard through '07 — Evil Empire and Battle of Los Angeles getting the heaviest rotation. After years away, you've been drawing on them again since 2024, leaning back into "Sleep Now in the Fire" and "Guerrilla Radio" like old reliable fuel.
