Rage Against The Machine - 'Guerilla Radio'



"The hits not only appeal to a 'lonely crowd' of the atomized; they reckon with the immature, with those who cannot express their emotions and experiences, who either never had the power of expression or were crippled by cultural taboos....Socially the hits either channel emotions--thus recognizing them--or vicariously fulfill the longing for emotions." Theodore Adorno, 'Introduction To The Sociology of Music,' pp.27
