Battle of political influenced bands: RATM vs SOAD

Rage against the machine VS System of a Down

Two pretty popular bands who both have used their musical talent to spread their political views.

Rate them through the content and quality of musicianship, lyrics and overall appeal. 

Basically, RATM's politics appeal to middle schoolers, while SOAD's politics appeal to high schoolers.

SOAD is in no way more politically mature then RATM.

Rage, plus they are (were) a better band. Vyse_The_Daring

Eh, I didn't find it interesting.

Radiohead destroys them both.quiglythegreat

System of a Down has far more variety to their music than RATM.  (I'm speaking from a purely musical standpoint, not lyrical.)

I find RATM rather annoying really.

Killing in the name, btw, and I agree it is a good song, but nothing compared to "Freedom" or "Bulls On Parade"
