Tom Morello is not metal. He seems like a decent guy and certainly appreciates the metal genre (although his politics are absolutely horrifying), but he shouldn’t be inducted. Just like the Rock n Roll HOF, the lines of what is and what isn’t metal get blurred by these goofy institutions to the point of being completely insignificant.
