A little sign of rebellion over here in the UK this holiday season.
A LOT of people are pretty pissed off at the corporate drivel, which is the mainstream music industry.
Typically in the last decade, talent shows like X-Factor, Pop Idol etc. have dominated the music charts at this time of year with their manufactured pop, ballad, teenybop crap.

Not this year, Killing in the Name by Rage Against the Machine has been selling a few extra copies.

check out the video below of yesterdays live performace from RATM on the BBC...
I found the last thirty seconds quite funny. In the UK, it is frowned upon to say fuck on tv/radio before 9pm, as the kiddies might be watching.

If only people would target their anger at more pressing matters...

Now if we could just get Brits to vote for smaller government as well, we'd be unstoppable.

I think Kevin Wilson's "Hey Santa" is more Festive.

Caught Kevin Live in Sydney around 20 years ago.
I was in pain with laughter when leaving after his performance.

Just heard a longer version, turns out it was the breakfast show and not the late evening show.

I've been a fan of their music since I was a kid. They have always been huge opponents of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
