They're a fantastic band, but the people saying they're the best bend ever are going a bit overboard...
RATM is epic. Their songs have power, meaning, and aggression! I'm probaly going to form a band that influences from Saliva, RATM, and similar bands when I get older. No other bands give you that "FUCK YOU!", and stand-up feeling.
Well...mainly that, "FUCK YOU" statement is toward the main political party leaders. Politicians in general.
