This What’s Wrong With talks about the band that is perhaps my favorite 90’s band and one I’d kill to see reunite, Rage Against the Machine. I also give my opinions on political/protest music in general (including touching on my thoughts on Prophets of Rage), its relevance in the current year, and expand more about what I think of musicians expressing their political views.

I also use dual angles at one point in this video, which was fun as hell to edit.

Also, new shiny intro for WWW!
