  Those are definitely the most popular artists in our current day. Rage out out a new album only 20 years ago.

    SOAD has new songs out now & are working on a another album.

    Rise Against released an album last year & the year before that.

    Tom Morello released an album in 2021 & also has an XM radio show.

      Is SOAD currently popular? People who like popular music keep telling me “rock is dead”.

      Also, Tom Morello’s solo output is not Rage Against the Machine, and if you heard it, it would be pretty clear to you.
