Rage Against the Machine XX-20th Anniversary
Regular price $31.00 Save $-31.00Renegades
Regular price $29.00 Save $-29.00Following three groundbreaking studio releases of original material, Rage Against The Machine returned in 2000 with Renegades, a tribute album paying homage to their musical heroes and philosophical roots. Displaying a broad variety of artists and genres, the diverse 12-song set includes material from the likes of Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Minor Threat, Eric B. & Rakim, EPMD, MC5, The Rolling Stones, Devo and Cypress Hill among others. Rather than just give every song the obligatory Rage Against The Machine treatment, each cut is arranged distinctly here, resulting in an ambitious and musically varied affair. For instance, Afrika Bambaataa's "Renegades of Funk" and Eric B. & Rakim's "Microphone Fiend" have never been rocked so hard before, whereas Springsteen's "The Ghost of Tom Joad" finds the group as refined and musically daring as ever!

The Battle of Los Angeles
Regular price $30.00 Save $-30.00Battle of Los Angeles, Rage Against the Machine's fiery and groovy third full-length effort, closed out the '90s in typical uncompromising fashion and is arguably the most focused and explosive collection of the band's trailblazing career. Tom Morello and company match Zach de la Rocha's political venom here with equal musical aplomb and never take their foot off the gas from opener "Testify" through to closer "War Within a Breath." Battle of Los Angeles was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Rock Album and the single "Guerrilla Radio" won for Best Hard Rock Performance.
