What do you think? Was RATM a "machine" that was greater than the members' individual efforts?

My question is: Who could argue objectively against your statement?

But personally, I would vote Yes!

I voted yes. Its tough to make an arguement that RATM was just another band hypocritically spewing about politics and not really acting on their own beliefs. Just look at what all they accomplished outside the studio. In my mind, they've gone above and beyond defining the 'machine.'

I know you're out there. I can feel you now. I know that you're afraid. You're afraid of us, you're afraid of change. I don't know the future. I didn't come here to tell you how this is going to end, I came here to tell you how this is going to begin. Now, I'm going to hang up this phone, and I'm going to show these people what you don't want them to see. I'm going to show them a world without you. A world without rules and controls, without borders or boundaries. A world...where anything is possible.
Where we go from there is a choice I leave to you.

Absolutely!

When the band was at its best~ it had a striking oscillation of strength swirling through and beyond each of them. It was a powerful experience when they came together as one entity; yet remained individually thumped in their almighty.
Yea not one of the members could have made ‘the band.’ That’s why I enjoy RATM so much because they were a full fledged band and not just a face with music behind it. They were so much individually. Each of them being unique and eccentrically artistic who come together to create this unimaginably wild creation.
Not to mention all those who backed up the band, plus RATM’s audience~ it felt bigger than a football team.

That's the most poetic thing I ever heard about Rage.

I can feel them pushing, I can feel them pulling
I can feel them holding, I can feel them moving,
I can feel them prying, I can feel them prodding,
I can feel them breathing, I can feel them digging
I can feel them stabbing, I can feel them scoping,
I can feel them living, I can feel it, Consume, take in, plunging, plumbing,
Instruments prying, aliens inside me, Tooling the machine, Intoxicating,
Feel it unfolding, riddles in me
