Know Your Enemy | Rage Against the Machine cover | ft. Sophia Urista

[@zerobandwidth]

Sophia's vocal style is _such a perfect match_ for RAtM. And that brass arrangement. Daaaaaaaang. Unbelievable. I don't think it'll be possible to get tired of these covers.

[@eclipsewrecker]

I think I prove you wrong. Haha cheers

[@bopeymcfuqno810]

I hope as I lay dying in the ICU many years from now I get someone to play Brass Against for me.

[@kyriacosomerou6763]

The hair does the trick

[@Ashwilliamskithe3rd]

Well said, man. I'm a hardcore RATM fan, so I don't take a cover lightly. But then I do love my brass too. Anyhow, this lot nailed it like total champs. Beautiful, and reignited my love for the original.

[@Ashwilliamskithe3rd]

@@kyriacosomerou6763 it is good hair, but then the rest of what she does is pretty special.

[@RobKleifgen]

Yes I know my enemies,, they're the teachers who taught me to fight me, compromise, conformity, assimilation, submission, ignorance, hypocrisy, brutality, the elite... All of which are American Dreams... All of which are American Dreams.... These words are insightful, truthful and unfortunately timeless.

[@user-bf6gz8ej4o]

*wears mask and quarantines himself because he's told to do so*

[@aptpupil]

Agreed, but we also have a large portion of society that had taught us to hate America. How far can a country progress when it teaches its people to hate the government, history, principles, etc.?

[@dontblattme7227]

​@@aptpupil it didnt TEACH its people to hate and distrust, it preemptively informed its people through constitutional law, to fight for whats right, even against the government. The government itself is riddled with flaws and untrustworthy conduct, that even with a new person in power, there is no new slate. I understand why the anarchistic people even the Jan 6 rioters blared RATM like its their theme song though extremely misguided. The power songs like these and bands like these hold are unlike no other. But in todays age, be warned, information skews and divides even the people who have the right intent. In the information age, truth is not always what you want to hear, but doubt will be everywhere.

The teachers who taught me the fight theme..... Yeah though bro whatever kit says to you..... WE DON'T NEED THE KEY, WE'LL BREAK IN!!

[@ngcbd136]

Song is damn near 30 years old and is still as relevant as ever.

[@FINETUNEDGAMING]

Ed Hagopian right on down the very last lyric

[@yuibot5998]

Only if you base every thought on what the MSM and left says.

[@skotup]

Perfect song to fight against the established mainstream media and leftist teachings.

[@HistoricLife]

Compromise, conformity, assimilation, submission. Ignorance, hypocrisy, brutality, the elite. That is the GOP, however they don't compromise anymore. They hold the nation hostage to pass tax cuts and build useless monuments to racism.

[@NoBrakes23]

@@FINETUNEDGAMINGThe very last lyric is left-wing fever dream nonsense. None of those are "American Dreams." That line of idiotic thinking is for people who masturbate to Chomsky. This is an awesome song, but the central irony in it is these rich kids from Irvine, CA whining about "the system" and selling Che shirts are absolutely part of that conformity and hypocrisy. I love RATM, but Zach's lyrics are a fucking cartoon.

[@samgardner26]

The '92 album was my favorite thing to ever happen in music when it dropped, and it stands the test of time. I wore that CD out at least 4 times, and I own it on vinyl now. There aren't words big enough to encompass what RATM has meant to me. This is a brilliant tribute. You give me goosebumps. Powerful. Well done, Brass Against. Bravo.

[@hewsonsharp2399]

Rage's first album is my favorite album of all time. I find his lyrics and energy a power beyond words. I had a teacher who heard me blasting bullet in the head and she said it was nothing but yelling and incoherent as if Zack screamed without substance. I find that comment a sickness of decadence. To not hear his meaning and energy, and hearing nothing more than teenage anger, is a crime of ignorance. Because of Zack, I've done nothing less than educate myself on history and American revolutions. And from there, I educated myself on everything that came my way. How could a teacher miss this? How could I be wrong with a band that screams knowledge is power. We definitely got to take the power back. Everyone please vote! It's beyond important. Know your Enemy.

[@sgorneau]

Was like ... I wonder how she’s gonna do on that Maynard part ... and then oh shit! It’s Sam!

[@SteveEh]

and he Killed it!!

[@sgorneau]

@@kz.irudimen No no, I know she can do it .. and I was excited to see it happen. And then Sam was a nice surprise because he is a master with Maynard's style. Was just a happy surprise ... not a knock at Sophia .. she's badass.

[@hot4mikaela]

Ummmm question...... Why am I always so late to the freaking party... I am a gen x girl. Born and raised in Southern California. So Rage has always been my favorite, rebellious and mouthy. Never afraid to raise my middle finger at someone, when nobody was looking, 🤣. I have something important to say.... I have never heard of Brass Against ever, not till today. I wasn't even looking for them... I guess they found me. Well either way, I am forever a changed woman. Sofia's vocal abilities are astounding. She has the soul of a rebellious teen from the 1990's. Where she has been hiding with all of these talented musical geniuses I may never know, but I will be spending lots of time listening to every single song Brass Against has ever posted on KZbin. Thank you for making my life a better place for me to run amuck, not literally but you know musically

[@hot4mikaela]

I was just free reading the comment I posted a few days ago and I must say I'm pretty good at writing comments sometimes let's just say...... How do I say this..... So since I found Brass Against, I have not only been listening to them nonstop as loud as I possibly can in my car in my apartment and even at work and I don't think half the people that I work with really enjoy but I know I do... So as I was saying, since this wonderful group of musical geniuses has crossed my path you know on KZbin I've been spreading the word like wildfire about them and I've been telling everybody that cares and doesn't care about them so I hope I get a lot of people listening to your guys's wonderful renditions of music that is from my childhood and my teenage years and you guys just absolutely blow my mind you guys kick ass.

[@deusexaethera]

Sophia Urista's singing gives me goosebumps.

One of their best covers for sure. So much life. And the guy covering James Maynard Keenan's part is a great substitute.

[@N.I.R.A.T.I.A.S.]

How do you squeeze that much talent into one room? Sophia's voice, are you kidding me??? And Samuel??? Good Lord.

[@onuralpakar1484]

Samuel come and pls shout as long as you want. I can listen your shouts day and night. That crystal clear note has blown up my mind.

[@GratefullyMedicated]

The entire band is killing it! I've been watching since the very beginning, had no clue Sophia was on the TV talent show (name escapes me). I digress...Sophia is REALLY starting to bring that beautiful anger and rage to the mic that Zac did so uniquely well. Very hard to duplicate. Just watch the 'KiTNo' video compared to this one. Keep em coming. Oh...Samuel has a very strong Maynard vibe, would like to see some more Tool tracks with him on the mic.

@@alicetango6725 Close but incorrect. Sax is actually a woodwind because of it's reed construction. (sorry, someone always has to be pedantic)

@@LosTroopos close but incorrect as the sax is a modern instrument made of brass making it a brass instrument (sorry but there's always that one guy)

[@LosTroopos]

@@alicetango6725 Sax is largely made out of brass, but that doesn't make it a brass instrument. The single-reed (usually wooden) does make it a woodwind, as the reed is responsible for sound production. (Sorry, but you're not that guy)
