Music Matters With MonkeyBoy & Ziggy Season 2 Episode 13 R.A.T.M.

This week on Music Matters, MonkeyBoy & Ziggy take a deep dive into Rage Against the Machine — the band that turned protest into poetry and riffs into revolution. We break down their formation in early‑’90s Los Angeles, the political fuel behind their lyrics, Tom Morello’s groundbreaking guitar wizardry, and the cultural moments that cemented RATM as one of the most important rock bands of their era. From their self‑titled debut to their Rock Hall induction, we explore how Rage became more than a band — they became a voice.
