Nominations list:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1s-14887iRBUWlKLgWM3FHIHU4SOFfmqX5kzkX3p7oOc/edit?usp=sharing

Rules

-To vote, just state the name of the song.
-If they are a solo artist that was in a group, only name songs from when they were a solo artist (For Example Beatles songs for Paul McCartney)
-Collaborations are A-Ok to pick! So Under Pressure works for Queen + David Bowie, and Numb/Encore works for Jay-Z and Linkin Park!
-Covers are ok too!
-You can nominate up to five artists/bands a day. Can be from any genre, as long as they make something that can be considered music. Once you nominate something, you can't nominate it again on another day. Those with the most nominations get picked for the next day. (Tiebreakers get picked by me)
-In the event of a tie, the top songs get voted on to decide which is better!

I broke the Politics Containment Topic for today's band, I hope you can forgive me.

Killing In The Name


Most of their songs don't do anything for me. I don't dislike them, but they are pretty whatever for me. Killing in the Name is the one that I legitimately like and would listen to on my own.

Wake Up

Pretty much their only song I like, though I imagine "Killing in the Name" works much better in a live context than when you sit in a chair listening to the song.

Did they do this on their own too? I know Morello did a collaboration with Rise Against for it.

Sleep Now in the Fire

HM to Freedom & Know Your Enemy

Holy god that was tough. Their best two albums are easily their self-titled debut, and Battle of Los Angeles. For several of their songs I prefer the live performance from the "Live at the Grand Olympic Auditorium" release to the studio version. For example Tom Morello's solo during Know Your Enemy is way better during the live performance imo. The three I listed are my top tier but it was tough to narrow it down to just one. In the end I think Sleep Now in the Fire best embodies Rage's sound, with much more drive to it than most of their other tracks, and with great dynamics.

very close between a ton of their songs though, they're real consistent with their quality regardless of whether it was a hit song or not
