Default The Similarites Between RATM and The Police (random but oh well deal with it)

"I never realized how similar the philosophies of The Police and Rage Against The Machine were. Stewart Copeland would take these reggae-style verses that were heavily emphasizing the 3, and then in the choruses he would kind of switch it over to the rock 4/4, and it was really cool and interesting. Rage Against The Machine took hip-hop styles and mixed that with hard-rocking choruses quite a bit. So I thought it was a similar philosophy in that way."
- Brad Wilk
