I still don’t get it. Rage was always political and they never hid it. I can still remember on their first website having a detailed FAQ on exactly what type of communist each band member identified with. Also they were putting stuff out in the CD era when you would literally get a slip of paper that showed you the lyrics. So it couldn’t have been that they didn’t know what the songs were about.
What part was confusing? You can have all the debates you want about communism and about music’s role in politics but there is no debate at all exactly what these guys stood for. It was a known product. How was anyone for a second confused that a band screaming about class warfare is leftwing? Those twats must have been lying about how they felt betrayed. It is “I am shocked shocked there is gambling going on here” on roids.
