benji listens to rage against the machine? this goes against my headcanon
Don't you remember in 2012 when Paul Ryan said they were one of his favorite bands and Tom Morello freaked the fuck out over it? (And de la Rocha was more...zen...about it.)
I might be changing some as I age (or I was underwhelmed by their come back attempt and the Mars Volta years had depressed me too much), but for most of my "years" At The Drive-In has been my top favorite band, with
Relationship of Command as my ultimate album. (Glassjaw, Head Automatica, Coheed and Cambria, Thursday and Neil Cicierega are just five that have taken at least one decent shot at my king over the years, most pre-2007 for some reason...I could probably figure out four more (Brand New? Alexisonfire? Blaqk Audio?) to make it ten that took shots. Although the first two should really be combined. Maybe those are closer to your headcanon? Although my palette to what I listen to in general is so much broader, I certainly have a favorite flavor of sorts I can see just from listing those now.)
