The Battle of Los Angeles – Rage Against the MachineView More By Rage Against the Machine Our ReviewUnwilling to go out with a whimper, Rage Against the Machine treated their final album (Renegades is a posthumous collection of cover songs) like Custer's Last Stand — with guitars blazing instead of guns and a headstrong Zach de la Rocha leading the charge as if it might be his last, from the lawnmower lashings of "Testify" to the claustrophobic and caustic closer "War Within a Breath." In many ways it was, as the rap-metal pioneer retreated into the shadows to work on a secretive solo project that still hasn't come out. As for the rest of Rage, they managed to crank out three Audioslave albums with Chris Cornell before rejoining de la Rocha at Coachella and reminding more than 30,000 people just why they were once the most relevant (and to some degree, dangerous) band in modern rock. Oh, you weren't there? No matter; one listen to The Battle of Los Angeles will have the same 'wow, these guys were awesome!' effect. In fact, don't blame us if "Calm Like a Bomb" makes you spontaneously combust or "Sleep Now in the Fire" sparks a street sign-smashing spree. Just remember these five words: "Morello made me do it.". Customer ReviewsWhat This Album's Good For... (5 stars)In your future, should you ever be standing atop a 12,000 foot summit with only blue skies above and a sheer, nasty, cliff-face looming below your wobbly legs strapped to Salomon Rocker skis, all-the-while your friends, who in an attempt to impress the ogling ladies sipping their warm lattes at the mountain base below, jumped headfirst over the edge without the slightest hint of knowing that they call this drop the 'Death For Sure' plummet f Another Rage Classic (5 stars) In my opinion, Rage Against the Machine and Tool are the only two bands that don't make a bad song. When you buy a Rage album there is no filler. Rage continues to evolve as musicians on the last studio album they released. The best tracks are not the most popular. My favorites are "Ashes in the Fall, Mic Check, New Millenium Homes, and Born of a Broken Man. Rage is one of those bands where you feel like the musician's soul is on t This is a great album! (5 stars) Exellent ! This has got to be Rage Against the Machine's best album. The best tracks in my opinion are: Testify, Guerrilla Radio, Mic Check, Sleep Now in the Fire, Born of a Broken Man, Voice of the Voiceless and War Within a Breath. If you look at Rage Against the Machine, you will notice that they are not just some band, they are one of the best bands that you will ever hear. Now, what really sets R.A.T.M. apart from the rest is: Okay, BiographyFormed: 1991 in Los Angeles, CAGenre: Rock Years Active: '90s, '00s, '10s Rage Against the Machine earned acclaim from disenfranchised fans (and not insignificant derision from critics) for their bombastic, fiercely polemical music, which brewed sloganeering leftist rants against corporate America, cultural imperialism, and government oppression into a Molotov cocktail of punk, hip-hop, and thrash. Rage formed in Los Angeles in the early '90s out of the wreckage of a number of local groups: vocalist Zack de la Rocha (the son of Chicano political artist Beto) emerged from...
