"Vietnow" is a single by Rage Against the Machine, which appears on their Evil Empire album. The song is in reference to extremely popular right-wing radio shows, mostly on the AM dial, hosted by people such as Rush Limbaugh, G. Gordon Liddy, Oliver North and Michael Reagan. One of the riffs bears a resemblance to "The Wanton Song" by Led Zeppelin, whom Tom Morello has cited as a major influence.
