Au risque de passer un peu plus pour un vieil anti-impérialiste gauchiste aux idées simplistes… Rage Against The Machine, ça a quand même été le meilleur groupe de tous les temps…

De tous les temps.... bon, les Clash, dans le genre wokistes, ça se posait là aussi. Ne parlons pas du MC5.
Mais bon, c’est franchement leur meilleure chanson, et c’est un banger pour les siècles et les siècles.
J’avais repéré la série écrite par Tom Morello pour le NYT sur le racisme envers les métis... eu envie de traduire, mais faut de l’argent pour publier ce genre de choses. -

Et ben, moi j’préfère les « barbichus » de SOAD :

We’re rolling “Suicide”[Verse: Serj Tankian]
Wake up (Wake up)
Grab a brush and put a little makeup
Hide your scars to fade away the shakeup (Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup)
Why’d you leave the keys upon the table?
Here you go, create another fable, you wanted to
Grab a brush and put a little makeup, you wanted to
Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup, you wanted to
Why’d you leave the keys upon the table? You wanted to[Chorus: Serj Tankian, Serj Tankian & Daron Malakian]
I don’t think you trust
In my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die[Verse: Serj Tankian]
Ah! Wake up (Wake up)
Grab a brush and put a little makeup (A little bit)
Hide the scars to fade away the (Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup)
Why’d you leave the keys upon the table?
Here you go, create another fable, you wanted to
Grab a brush and put a little makeup, you wanted to
Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup, you wanted to

In my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die
In my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die[Bridge: Serj Tankian & Daron Malakian]
Father, father, father, father
Father, father, father, father
Father, into your hands I commend my spirit
Father, into your hands
Why have you forsaken me?
In your eyes, forsaken me?
In your thoughts, forsaken me?
In your heart, forsaken me? Oh[Chorus: Serj Tankian & Daron Malakian]
Trust in my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die
In my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die▻https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4L20t8Dvlg
[Intro: Serj Tankian]
They’re tryna build a prison

Drugs became conveniently available for all the kids
Following the rights movements, you clamped down with your iron fists
Drugs became conveniently available for all the kids[Pre-Chorus: Serj Tankian & Daron Malakian]
I buy my crack, my smack, my bitch
Right here in Hollywood

In the prison system, prison system of the U.S[Chorus: Serj Tankian & Daron Malakian]
They’re tryna build a prison
They’re tryna build a prison
They’re tryna build a prison
They’re tryna build a prison
For you and me to live in
Another prison system
Another prison system
Another prison system
For you and me[Verse 2: Serj Tankian]
Minor drug offenders fill your prisons, you don’t even flinch
All our taxes paying for your wars against the new non-rich
Minor drug offenders fill your prisons, you don’t even flinch
All our taxes paying for your wars against the new non-rich[Pre-Chorus: Serj Tankian & Daron Malakian]

The percentage of Americans in the prison system
Prison system has doubled since 1985[Chorus: Serj Tankian & Daron Malakian]

Oh, oh
All research and successful drug policy
Shows that treatment should be increased
Oh
And law enforcement decreased
While abolishing mandatory minimum sentences
Oh
All research and successful drug policy
Shows that treatment should be increased
Oh
And law enforcement decreased
While abolishing mandatory minimum sentences
Utilizing drugs to pay for secret wars around the world
Drugs are now your global policy, now you police the globe[Pre-Chorus: Serj Tankian & Daron Malakian]
I buy my crack, my smack, my bitch
Right here in Hollywood
Drug money is used to rig elections and train brutal
Corporate sponsored dictators around the world[Chorus: Serj Tankian & Daron Malakian]
They’re tryna build a prison
They’re tryna build a prison
They’re tryna build a prison
They’re tryna build a prison
For you and me to live in

For you and I, you and I, you and I, you and me
They’re tryna build a prison
They’re tryna build a prison
They’re tryna build a prison for you and me

Je ne sais pas quel est le meilleur groupe de tous les temps et si je devais me prononcer je ne pencherais pas pour RATM.
À cette époque, At the drive-in me semblait largement mieux - les lyrics n’étaient pas « engagés » certes.

London Calling des Clash devrait être dans le top des meilleurs albums.
Fugazi est un groupe remarquable sur la durée :

Sinéad O’Connor & Ed O’Brien) :
