But the mainstream, record buying public are not the only large group around. Rage are still extremely well known, just in different circles. And different circles do exist. That was one of the points of this campaign. The silent majority spoke up at last, and look what happened.

You simply can't say in such general terms that Rage Against The Machine are not well known. They have sold millions. They are very well known. Just not in the current mainstream. And saying it's a shame they won't be remembered for anything else other than this just sounds like plain old biterness methinks.
