I'll think about the sell-out money and publicity they got from doing that song, thanks. Perhaps, had it been a different movie, I'd cut them more slack, but God fucking Zilla? C'mon, from an alternative audio hard rock pseudo rebellious group, I'd expect more artistic integrity than that.

To be fair, KMFDM was on Mortal Kombat, Bad Boys, and (I don't know this last one for sure ) an episode of Beverly Hills 90210.

They had a song (can't remember the title right now) that described
almost everything that happened between America and Iraq but the song was written way before anything happened... They're lyrics are very much interesting and fascinating

No shelter was purely a song against corporate america (what rage song isn't?) and the entertainment industry. Kinda funny that a song openly dissing Godzilla was on the soundtrack. Well, some companies will do anything for publicity.

Yeah, but KMFDM is different. KMFDM doesn't market itself as "hardcore" and "against the system" - at least, in a serious manner like Rage Against The Machine apparently did.

I suppose my major beef with Rage is that they didn't choose a better movie.

Hey, I like that movie! Sure, it was stupid, but hey, it was better than the last 2 Jurassic Park's.

Too bad the radio played that damn Puff Daddy song so often, though.
