Polo.
But I would never ever go see them live.
I burned a hole through my copy of RATM back in college. Then I bought another copy and burned a hole through that one, too.
Man. I'm losing it then.
Perhaps you're thinking of WyldSyde?

*bigly.

but wow. RAtM was great. Back in college I was in a crappy cover band with a guitarist that would switch with me for rage songs. I had a pedal board so I could at least get the pitch shift effects right (but I was pretty horrible on guitar in general). He had that smoker raspy voice and could totally nail de la Rocha's, "k'widdit-NyAOW!"

I never really got any better btw.
I will give props to Morello. Definitely a super creative guy in his approach to the instrument.
I dunno, given the style, "a box of shouting" seems like the right place to talk about them.
