How does Zack de la Rocha support himself any more? He's released only two songs in the last 18 years and hasn't played with RatM since 2011, and even then that was one show since 2008. I know he's done some guest spots but come on, there's no money there. He must have had one hell of a money manager or something.

Pretty sure that Evil Empire and Battle of Los Angeles set him up for several lifetimes (the debut album was most likely, by common industry standards at the time, an almost entirely recoupable expense for Epic Records).

I feel like he probably made puh-lenty of money from RATM to be just fine for the rest of his life.

I remember reading somewhere that RATM got an incredible record deal from Epic, both monetarily and creatively.

now that you mention it I that sounds familiar, probably this interview with Morello?

that guy's doing something wrong if he's in rapid decline in his 40s. stop trying to be funny, get off the twitter, and go work on yourself.

Yeah, he's not nearly as funny as he once was, and that's saying something.

I just liked the idea of the angtsy covers, like the Disturbed cover of Sound of Silence.

I'm right on schedule, though my nostalgia music mostly consists of bubbly 80s music, not angst.

I've somehow heard Shonen Knife's cover of "On Top of the World" twice in the past week. What a steaming pile of horseshit that is.

Friend recommended Nothing But Thieves. I'd never heard of them. She thought I'd appreciate their stuff. I've only listened to half of their most recent record, but I think I dig them.
