They're not just a band, they're a social club.

I like the album too. Saw them on the NIN|JA tour last week, they were awesome live. Although, I did not get to see this:

How far does the similarity to Rage Against The Machine go? Does every single song on the album have some kind of activist message to it? If no I might actually give it a shot.

Oh man, I wish I'd seen this post before I came to work so that I could have downloaded it.
Boots is one of my favorite rappers, even if I'm what his message is often against.

Tom Morello is one of my favorite guitarists. I can't wait to check this out.
"Genocide and Juice" is one of my favorite albums of all time.

Can hear the whole album on their
myspace page too!
Well, you could over the weekend. It looks like some songs are not available right now.

When you're finally able to download and listen to this incredible album, you will jizz in your pants.

Watched it on youtube, was a good performance. It helped quite a bit that they had the Roots playing with them too

Still not sure how a retard like Fallon got the Roots as his house band.

I had to redeem myself after recommending Green Day. Although, I still dig that album, too.

I dig this. Not to the "jizz your pants" level, but it's pretty good. It could use more left-wing activist messaging, though (not that it's not in there). A pro-Zapatista song would do wonders for this album!

That's absolutely not what it needs, it's what stopped me from liking Rage more.
I like this cd, but I actually gave The Coup a listen too cause I'd never heard of them. I've listened to most of the Genocide and Juice album and it's pretty good! Reminds me a lot of the Pharcyde.
EDIT: Just got to Santa Rita Weekend, I didn't know Spice 1, MC Eiht and E-40 were in it! Spice and MC Eiht are two of my favorites.

"Steal This Album" is really good, too. It actually won a couple Album of the Year lists and got a lot more critical acclaim, but "Genocide and Juice" reminds me of high school and has more sentimental value for me.

@BootsRiley: Most of u picked "Promenade". Fact: background vocals on that were sung by Steve Perry of Journey.

I'm dead broke after Japan, but I'm definitely picking this up when I get paid. Already heard good things about it!
