>From the album "The Battle Of Los Angeles"
Drop D tuning, low to high: D A D G
After the guitar intro, play Fig. 1
G----5-7-------------------
Fig. 1 D-----------0-------------
A------------------------
D------------------------
Then, When Zach says "This is the new sound" turn your volume knob all the
way down, play a low D, then turn the volume knob all the way up gradually,
making a nice crescendo.
G------------------------
Fig. 2 D------------------------
A------------------------
D---0-------------------
After Fig. 2, play this. its the same as Fig. 1, only one octave lower...
G------------------------
Fig. 3 D------------------------
A--3--5--------------------
D----------0--------------
Thats it, pretty simple. At the end of the song, if you have an echo pedal,
play the low D muted, letting it echo a while...any questions or comments,
email me!

| i think some people really fail to grasp what the entirety of this song is promoting. That's sad, but such is the path for the ignorant | |

| This is the new sound Just like the old sound Just like the noose wound Over the new ground In other words, history WILL repeat itself just as droutkast said. This war with Iraq just might be the breaking point, it's coming, just know when it is. We ned to realize that we really can't just sit here and be bossed around, we HAVE TO STAND UP! We can't let down or they have won. They want us to lie down, and take the punches, because they need the money. Money is our enemy, not Iraq, and as soon as the American people realize this, it will have already have been too late. | |

| This is probably my favorite Rage song ever. The metaphors and imagry Zack uses are exremely powerful. Just some more analyzing: "Like swollen stomachs In Appalachia" Applachia being the poorest area of the United States, located in the general area of the mountains in name. Trust me, I've been there... if you've ever wondered where cars from thirty years ago and old school busses go to die, its in the front yards of Appalachia. "Like the priests that fuck you As they whisper holy things" This is probably supposed to just mean mislead or at worst betray, this song was written before the whole widespread accusations of Catholic priests for molesting members of their parishes. Makes it more poingent after all that though. "A mass of tears have transformed to stones now Sharpened on suffering Woven into slings Hope lies in the rubble of this rich fortress Taking today what tomorrow never brings " This is pretty straightforward, and probably my favorite part of the song. Just saying that the pain and suffering have caused a revolution. | |

| WE didn't kill any of your ancestors. our ancestors did. actually, my ancestors weren't even in this country at the time. my family didn't come to this country until just before WWII. and i'm sure it's the same for a lot of people. your statements are extremely racist and offensive. you assume that because we are white, we are somehow responsible for the deaths of your ancestors? that makes absolutely no sense. that's like a native american of another tribe holding you responsible for your ancestor's rape and pillage of their ancestor's tribe hundreds of years ago. | |

| I think that sertain ones of you need to chill out here, and pull your head out of your butts. I don't see how you could think that the band members didn't talk oustide of playing music. There really isn't anyway that they could have lasted as a band as long as they did you jackass. Plus there was an interview of them and they all got along fairly well, granted they weren't the best of freinds. But they got along. Well, to me the song kinda sounds like it is how everyrthing wil get poured back wounds, onto new things. This is the new sound Just like the old sound Just like the noose wound Over the new ground Just history getting dug up along with it's antimosity and it is placed on todays people. | |

| If you are sad about RATM's split and need a replacement item to challenge your worldview, pick up a copy of 'Adbusters' magazine. I highly recommend it. It is the only magazine that makes me think and the only one for which I have a subscription. No matter what you believe you will enjoy it. | |

| When I turn this song up pretty loud with headphones on and implement certain buttons on the equalizer, I can achieve "audioRGASM" by listening to it. God, it feels good. | |
