Rage Against the Machine by Rage Against The Machine

Pros: Loud, original, fantastic musicianship, fiery performances...
Cons: Too political for some people (but not for me)...

When their eponymous debut made its way to shelves and subsequently radio in 1992/1993, Rage Against the Machine earned immediate acclaim from critics and fans alike. In the midst of the “grunge” movement in rock and roll, the hard rockers were ...

Pros: Many
Cons: Few

When I heard, in 1991, that Perry Farrell's new band, Porno for Pyros, was gigging with a band called Rage Against the Machine, I naturally assumed Perry'd gone completely freakin' native. That he'd given in to his hippie-dippie commie side and was ...

Pros: Great guitar work, terrific bass-laden riffs, thunderous drumming, and passionate lyrics
Cons: Profanity and some exaggerated political views

Rage Against the Machine offers a politically charged eponymous album to rock the country Guilty Parties: Zack de la Rocha = Vocals Tim Commerford = Bass Brad Wilk = Drums Tom Morello = Guitar With a concoction of local Los ...

Pros: A Brilliant Debut from Rage Against The Machine.
Cons: None.

When Alternative Rock emerged from the underground music scene in 1992, it helped destroy old genres from the 1980s and in favor of new sub genres from the underground music scene. One of the new sub genres that were in fruitions was a new wave of...

Pros: The whole band are amazing throughout the album!
Cons: Profanities and messages in songs might offend some people

Throughout the 1990s, there has been a major increase in the number of hard rock bands, and the amount of appreciation for these bands (particularly among teenagers) is steadily increasing. Slipknot, Korn and Limp Bizkit are perfect examples of hard...

Pros: wee
Cons: wee

Rage Against the Machine's self-titled debut: another 90s classic. The record opens well. Bombtrack, which very much serves as an overview of what Rage is about (being that the government sucks and all forms of war after 1980 are evil), has a ...

Pros: Amazing solos, funky bass, powerful drumming, just about everything.
Cons: A lot of profanity which some people may not like.

Rage Against The Machine was my first Rage album, and it is definitely my favourite. O ...

Pros: Aggressive, angsty, honest
Cons: None

Rage Against The Machine is one of the first bands I’ve really liked and I still do the same today. ...

Pros: Innovative blend of funk, hip-hop, metal, and punk.
Cons: If you're conservative, this music will undoubtedly p*ss you off.

Make no mistake about it - these are troubled times. Unjust wars are being fought against intangible concepts that are made even more powerful when confronted through formal violence. Multi-national corporations, through ...

Pros: Brilliant. Best album of the band. Couldn't ask for more.
Cons: I better fill up the space in this box (no cons).

The first album by rapcore artists Rage Against The Machine. The best album of the flock to be frank. Bombtrack The first track of the album. A quiet smart bassline leading up to a modulated choral riff. Not the best on the album but ...

Pros: The best rap-metal album ever, political and hard hitting with some catchy songs
Cons: Repetitive, questionable politics

In this current age of horrible rap/rock bands like Limp Bizkit, Papa Roach, Linkin Park and whatever new band springs up this week, its easy to overlook just how good Rage Against The Machine's self titled debut is. While rap metal has been having a lot...

Pros: Excellent lyrics, hidden messages, inventive ways of using instruments, last but not least almost all tracks have awesome intros!
Cons: Some songs seem to be just complaining thrown together...

Hidden messages behind every track, along with excellent concerts & great adrenaline filled intros. Rage has to grow on you, its not something you pick up and like right away. I had the CD for about a year before I actually listened to it. When...

Pros: Intense music and lyrics
Cons: Music and message may be too intense for some

I first heard of Rage back in 1994, when the concept of combining rap and metal was foreign to most everyone. I can’t say I really got into them until 1996, when my brother was listening to their follow-up to this one, Evil Empire. About that time I...

Pros: The first perfect blend of rap-metal
Cons: The last perfect blend of rap-metal

Let me start this by saying that Rage was the second earliest rock band that I ever had real exposure to, Nirvana being the first. Back in 7th and 8th grade, when I was so naive about the ways of the world, my spanish teacher had a thing about them....

Pros: Zack is the best metal rapper,Tom Morello is legendary. ONLY good rap metal band ever!!!!!
Cons: Zack De La Rocha has left. Bands like Crazy Town and Limp Bizkit exist.

This is the greatest album I have ever heard. No, I'm not overacting. This is the most powerful, original , most brilliant album I have ever heard. This is at a tie with Nirvana's Never mind as the most influential album of the decade in my eyes. Let me...
