Stormi Maya: RATM speaks on political issues that many are scared to. They are honest, they are unapologetic, and even when I see the metal community shit on them for being liberal af- they have millions ready to stand up for them.
My favorite metal album is their debut album. Some of my favorite songs from them - The classic and everyone's favorite KILLING IN THE NAME?, everyone loves this song - when I hear this song I feel like kicking the fucking door down and snatching up justice. The line fuck you I won't do what you tell me? gets me pumped up!
Their song Take the Power Back? was the main inspiration for our song Rock N Roll Is Black? and inspired the line TAKING MY CULTURE BACK?. I listen to them every day, along with Deftones - and that's how I love to start my mornings .
The metal community may have a lot of crap to say about nu-metal, but it's here to stay and people like me are keeping it alive.
Cinnamon Babe Takes the Power Back with Rage: Cinnamon Babe's Rock N Roll is Black single is out now.
