Vinyl LP Reissue

Originally released in 1992 album, pissed off and angry is the best way to describe Rage Against the Machine’s self-titled first album — a fierce mix of hip-hop, punk and heavy metal that exploded all over the music scene. At first sight, Rage is an unlikely band: Tom Morello, a nerdy guitar hero who plays his guitar like a DJ; Zack de la Rocha, a political activist who spits out his lyrics with a vengeance; Brad Wilk on drums; and Tim C. on bass. While they produced one of the most angry records of ’90s, they found hits with “Killing In The Name Of” and “Bullet In The Head.”
