Title: Back to the Future
Product review: For those of us who went to high school with Tom Morello and Adam Jones of Tool, this album was the event we were all waiting for, because this is about the class and caliber of music they were playing in the early 80's: cringe-inducing protest rock- back then it was angry songs about freeing El Salvador.The moment that Tom started singing "One Man Revolution" at the Sundown Stage at the Wakarusa Music Festival [following North Mississippi All-Stars, a far better act] I had a good cathartic laugh because now I knew that people would experience the Tom Morello that I know:A relatively talentless guitarist who hid two-note riffs behind Zach de la Rocha and layers of fx,A lyricist whose politics seem to be an expression of opportunism more than conviction,and a man who has no sense of subtlety.So thanks to you, Tom Morello.Now everyone knows you like I do.
