Product Description

Product Description

CD The Battle Of Los Angeles Epic, 491993 2, 1999, 12 Track

Amazon.co.uk

Having successfully fused music and politics from their start, inspiring both moshing and young minds in the process, Rage Against the Machine emerge in peak form with merely their third album in seven years. Guitarist Tom Morello is one of the most distinctive and innovative players of his era, and his foil, vocalist/lyricist Zack De La Rocha, is as unrelenting and inspiring as ever on The Battle of Los Angeles. Rage, whose past antics include performing naked with duct tape over their mouths to protest censorship, released Battle on Election Day in the US, but the politics of the group can be separated from the sounds. Indeed, the 45 minutes of mayhem heard here can be enjoyed solely as rousing aggro hip-hop rock. There's more variety found on Battle than on its predecessors, however. "Sleep Now In The Fire" is one of their most straight-ahead rock tunes, while the trippy guitar on "Calm Like A Bomb" is out there even for the adventurous Morello and "Born a Broken Man" serves up lovely musical interludes. Overall, the more finely honed Rage heard on Battle may not inspire a generation of young revolutionaries, but they still stir up more mutinous spirit than the rest of the current rock pack. --Katherine Turman

5.0 out of 5 starsOne of best albums I have ever listened to
By A Customer on 9 Feb. 2001
Format: Audio CD
I must say I was never truely a great fan of RATM. When I heard ''Rage Against The Machine'' and ''Evil Empire'' my musical taste at that time was in bias of dance orientated, popular/commercial tracks, that on reflection held little depth and passion. RATM's first two albums I can say have lead me to a far greater appreciation of all styles of music. So when I heard this album was going to be released I was doubtful as to whether that raw, passionate anger would still excist, both In Zach's voice and the infamous bass lines. The first track I heard of the album was 'Born of a broken man' and was completely blown away. My favourite song from RATM is ''Bulls on parade'' and I thought no other track would come close to its vicious sound. Well ''Born of a broken man'' proved to me that RATM had certainly not lost anything from the previous albums. As mentioned this Is possibly the only album in my collection that I don't have to skip through. Every single song in its own right is awesome, with some of the best lyrics, outstanding bass work and pure funking rock!! Songs like ''Born of a broken man'', ''Guerrilla Radio'' and ''Sleep now in the fire'' are indeed standouts, but possibly the most arousing track is ''Voice of the Voiceless''. No matter what mood I am in, that track stirs up so many varied emotions. In conclusion any true RATM fan, might indeed think there are no classics resting on this album, however I truely think they excist as modern classics. I recommend this album without doubt.

4.0 out of 5 starsIntelligent, mature, and downright brutal return to the fore
By A Customer on 18 Nov. 1999
Format: Audio CD
Having been less than impressed with the Rages last offering, the initial riff in Testify made my heart sink... It really does sound like a poor attempt to replicate the sound of their first album, and quite frankly demonstrates the band's lack of musical training. However, from the nanosecond Morello kicks in with Guerilla Radios first riff you will be left in no doubt that they are back on form... and then some. It is impossible to overstate the brilliance of Rage Against The Machine. Love 'em or hate 'em, Morello is without a doubt one of the most innovative guitarists of his time (perhaps ever), yet he manages to demonstrate sublime restraint thoughout the album... solos are perfectly timed, silence used as a devastating tool. De La Rocha is on typically brutal form, his lyrics as politically sharp as they are melodically powerful. Songs such as New Millenium Homes echo their first offering, with Voice of the Voiceless, or Maria showing just what they are capable of. In 1993 we all hailed Rage Against the Machine. In 1997 we reckoned it might be time to look to others for our anti-establishment inspiration. Oh how wrong we were...

5.0 out of 5 starsWhat is there to say?
By A Customer on 8 April 2001
Format: Audio CD
Once again, Rage are angry. Once again, they want to tell you about it, with such conviction, style, and sheer power, that even the most ardent, skinhead Nazi would be tempted to start putting posters of Che Guevara up on his walls.
The sound has changed again: whereas the first album trod a fine line between rap and rock, and the second focused on the bass, this is a more polished, all-out rock record. While Zack's rapping loses none of its power and boldness (not to mention his ability to carry a tune well), songs like "Sleep Now In The Fire" and (take note of the spelling) "Guerrilla Radio" feature Tom Morrello at his very best, delivering riffs that could topple the Capitalist system on their own. The solo on the "Sleep Now In The Fire" wespecially, no matter where I am, always makes me want to air guitar and scissor kick.
Meanwhile Rage tackle a more varied subject matter: international slavery in "Maria", media bloodlessness in "Testify" and all-out revolution in "War Within A Breath", to name but a few. Coupled with such revolutionary fury, superb riffs and solos, vitriol-filled lyrics and some fantastic basslines, this is the "Communist Manifesto" for Generation X.

5.0 out of 5 starsStick that on your Guerilla Radio
By A Customer on 5 April 2004
Format: Audio CD
What can I say. I put this on my stereo system and was blown away by the sheer power of this music that was coming through my speakers. The raw tenacity of Zach De La Rocha's political lyrics could knock you through a brick wall. His words mean so much, it seems impossible that someone sould write anything that's so true and so moving. 'Same bodies buried hungry but with different last names' from the track 'Calm like a Bomb' is just a taster of the things that will amaze you if you buy this album.
Tom Morrelo's guitar work on this album is simply breathtaking. His guitar playing is unparelleled and when you hear his soloing on this album you can virtually smell the guitar riffs he is laying down. One of the album highlights is 'Sleep now in the fire' which boasts a stunning intro. Also the bass and drum playing by Tim Commerford and Brad Wilks only further delights your ears when you hear it. If you dont own this cd you must be insane as it can't be matched. From the first note of 'Testify' right to the last of 'War within a Breath' you will be on a rollercoaster of great tunes. Enjoy people.

5.0 out of 5 starsbest album by a long way
By A Customer on 6 Oct. 2001
Format: Audio CD
this album is a great one for any RATM fan its mint from a great beginning in 'Testify' with Tom Morrello yet again leting out some great sounds then with 'guerrila radio' used in the video game 'Tony Hawk pro skater 2' which is also great then 'calm like a bomb' which starts softly then an explosion of sound with more strong lyrics from Zack De La Rocha combining his music with political views. Then onn to one of the worst songs on the album but its still a monster mc check which has a rap feel to it. then my favourite song on the whole album 'sleep now in the fire' its a great song that makes u want to dance but also has very clever lyrics byh incororating Zacks political views as well. the next song 'born of a broken man'which is also great the only sonngs worth mentioning after that is 'born of ghosts' and 'ashes in the fall'
This is another great album by a great band and another 'crossover' style classic generally
