3 Songs: Rage Against The Machine – Vinyl Reissues
Last Friday, Legacy Recordings reissued the entire Rage
Against The Machine catalog on vinyl. Beginning
with their statement-making 1992 self-titled debut album, followed by their
highly-anticipated 1996 sophomore album Evil
Empire, to their final studio album, 1999’s The Battle Of Los Angeles; Zach, Tom, Tim and Brad were the
ultimate rap/metal hybrids and their politically-charged messages ring truer
than ever today.
Also included in the reissue campaign is the 2000 covers
album Renegades and the 2003 2-LP
live release, Live At The Grand Olympic
Auditorium. Each album has been
remastered, comes with an mp3 download code and is pressed onto 180g classic
black vinyl.
To celebrate, I’ve chosen 3 of my favorite Rage
tracks. Enjoy!
“Bombtrack”
(Watch a live performance of the explosive opening track of their self-titled
debut album, as featured on Rage Against
the Machine XX - 20th Anniversary Special Edition)
“Bulls
On Parade” (The lead single from their sophomore album, Evil Empire, with its catchy, instantly memorable
chorus.)
“Sleep
Now In The Fire” (The infamous Wall Street-closing video
taken from their third and final studio album, The Battle Of Los Angeles. This
track features one of Tom Morello’s coolest guitar solos, sounding like a
rapid-fire laser gun.)
