Freedom is so good, but there are a lot of songs in their catalog like Freedom. People of the Sun strikes a different tone from the get-go. Their first album was all about big sounding monolithic riffs. POTS is more like a slow burning fuse, and more historical to boot! Evil Empire is a better, more diverse album for it. POTS gets my vote.

Forget your prior experiences. If you heard both songs today for the first time, which would you like more?

Brutal matchup, but that outro on Freedom takes it. Can't believe it's getting demolished like this.

When I first heard Freedom, I hated it. I thought the ending was just over the top and stupid. We used to mock a friend for how much he loved this song. He was right, I was wrong. Two plus decades later and I'm voting for Freedom.

People Of The Sun is wonderful.

People of the Sun is a 2 minute beatdown of Rage's strong points
Freedom is a 6 minute buildup to one of Rage's most brutal points
I guess it kind of depends on what you want. I'm still going Freedom all day every day.
