Pros: All aspects of the band; twist on 'covering.'
Cons: Two tracks.
Summary: Making Renegades was the right decision for Rage Against the Machine, because as time went on, their music got progressively worse. Their f
irst
release, which was self-titled, was a brilliant exposition, ...

Pros: Hey, it's rage, ain't that enough?
Cons: Well, apparently not.
Summary: After reading Code-bleu's excellent review, my weak little effort will seem like nothing, but what the heck, I might as well. Mr. bleu's likening the finale of how could I just kill a man to a "salvo of cannonballs fired at the Trump Tower" seems...

Pros: Great Album. Top notch instrumentals and Vocals.
Cons: They are all covers. It's their last Album.
Summary: Rage Against The Machine was without a doubt one of the most influential political rock bands of our time. In my mind, they are definitely the last of a breed of musicians. There are so few politically oriented rock bands anymore, and it really is...

Pros: Slapping sound; great use of guitar, bass and drum
Cons: Swear words!?!?; Not a lot of origional work by RATM.
Summary: Sadly this is the last from RATM, the LA based rockers have finalised there third and final instalment album, and strangely there are little origional tracks of their own.
Songs like “Street Fighting Man” by the Stones, and “The Ghost Of Tom...

Pros: Beautiful piece of artwork. Tom Morello, need I say more?
Cons: nope
Summary: Rage's New Album
Renegades has been one of my favorite Rage albums and has been due to the amazing amount of power and raw energy to be found in it. This is a tribute to Rage's personal favorite musicians and bands such as: Bob Dylan, Devo,...

Pros: The rap covers showcase Zach's mic skills quite well.
Cons: Their last album with Zach, some odd choices for covers.
Summary: Renegades is Rage Against The Machine's last album with Zach De La Rocha, released a few weeks after he announced he was leaving the band. It is not, however, RATM's last album. After months of rumors the ex-lead singer of Soundgarden will be taking...

Pros: Great covers, all good songs, excellent band.
Cons: Hard to stop listening to it.
Summary: Rage Against the Machine is (was) one of the few mainstream bands that actually had skill and talent. The only reason why I ever watch MTV is to see a Rage video. Thier latest (and last) album, Renegades, is a compilation of covers of rock, rap, and...

Pros: A classic RATM album like the rest
Cons: None. EVER.
Summary: What else can be said about RATM. By far my favorite band. Not only can this band create their own great songs, but also take other classics and "Rageify" them.
In this album, RATM covers various artists ranging from The Rolling Stones to EPMD. I...

Pros: a decent work that shows the band evolving (*gasp*) a bit
Cons: some of the same old "Rage" sound that is really old
Summary: No one would make the argument that Rage Against the Machine in their original state was not one of the most influential bands that has risen to popularity in the last decade. However, that popularity has been stagnated by the fact that they have...

Pros: Rage at their best. The choice of songs covered highlights their versatility.
Cons: All cover versions - no original tracks.
Summary: Once again RATM kicks butt, proving that they alone are kings of the rock/hip hop crossover. These guys are giving free lessons to the likes of Limp Bizkit and Kid Rock on how to rock and rap intelligently and with style. A great selection of cover songs...

Pros: RATM wrote this album
Cons: Not their best effort
Summary: I was very excited when Rage Against the Machine came out with their latest album. I am a long time fan of RATM, and I have enjoyed their last three albums. Then they wrote this album. I went out and bought like every other Rage fan. This album,...

Jan 27 '01
Pros: RATMs’ best album yet, a work of righteous fury and great passion
Cons: “Street Fighting Man”
Summary: The liner notes don’t give you a good feeling about this one. A collection of vaguely Frank Miller-like pictures, coupled with obtrusive lines like “A quiet little hijacking on the way to the check out counter”...it’s a far cry from the political...

Pros: Renegades of Funk stands alone
Cons: Somewhat weak
Summary: I am still disappointed by the departure of Zack and I don't see how anybody could replace him. The only song that I truly love and will probably wear the disc out is Renegades of Funk. If this song doesn't get you moving nothing will. I didn't really...

Jan 05 '01
Pros: Great cd
Cons: picking the color on the front, different covers you can choose
Summary: This compact disc is one of the best I own. With many songs that you will never here on the radio, you should buy this cd to hear them. For Example "The Ghost of Tom Joad," one of the best songs on the compact disc, many stations will not...

Pros: Great Sound, very experimental
Cons: price at time of purchase, but probably cheaper now,
Summary: I'm an avid Rage Against the Machine fan, have been ever since I heard the crazy diverse sounds that is only RATM, the main reason of purchasing the album was to complete my RATM set but to also get a taste of what was possibly to come, now RATM has...
