1001 Other Albums<h2>Montage Monday | Bloodywood/Prophets of Rage/Manic Street Preachers/Rage Against The Machine</h2><p>Today’s spotlight is the second in a new series called “Montage Monday”, where the spotlight may be brief but is packed with a lot of music. Because, sometimes, you need a montage (montage!).<sup>[</sup><sup>1</sup><sup>]</sup></p><p>And for no particular reason, this Montage Monday we’re going to spotlight albums spanning 30 years that have some anger issues – or, rather, address issues with very well-justified anger -, working backward in case doing so can turn back time. Each title is directly linked to its Bandcamp/Songlink in case you want to just jump straight in and forego the montage completely, though the montage this time around is really just suggestions of some key tunes. Titrate additional tunes/anger in as needed.

This band is bloody amazing, and the video for this song always gets me jacked up (CW: mention of sexual assault and violence). (Watch for their third LP, <em><a href="https://bloodywood.bandcamp.com/album/nu-delhi" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nu Delhi</a></em>, coming out later this month – <a href="https://bloodywood.bandcamp.com/track/bekhauf-feat-babymetal-2" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">one track</a> features BABYMETAL!)</p><blockquote><p>I put a fist through the face of a rapist, and yeah, I tape this<br>For the viewing pleasure of the nameless faces he disgraces<br>And yeah, one day I may change his kind with my mind, but<br>I won’t bow to the beast, never make peace</p></blockquote><p>Prophets of Rage – “Unfuck the World” (<a href="https://prophetsofrage.bandcamp.com/track/unfuck-the-world" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Bandcamp</a>): See also the entire rest of this album, the only LP from an explosive supergroup of members from Rage Against The Machine, Public Enemy, and Cypress Hill formed in the wake of the 2016 US election.

In between the band name and track listing is a triptych of paintings depicting a person wearing a bra and underwear and looking down, with an odd perspective as if the viewer was on the floor looking up. ]</a><a class="" href="https://1001otheralbums.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/ratmcover.jpg?w=600" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">[🖼 The cover art is a monochromatic version of Malcolm Browne's photograph of Thích Quảng Đức, a Vietnamese Buddhist monk, self-immolating in 1963.
