Rage Against The Machine
Anyone else a fan of these guy's ?

My two fav albums are, Rage Against The Machine and Battle Of Los Angeles. I'm not really keen on much else though tbh, apart from the odd tracks here and there. I know one of their later albums RAGE was released with contention as well.

I still listen to those two albums now.

Anyone else like 'em ?

They've now split up, sadly

Although they did reunite in 2007 for a series of concerts and festivals.

Personally i think they are a fantastic band, and look awesome live.

Re: Rage Against The Machine
I was hoping this would be an anouncement of a new album, damn

They're great, their first album is a classic. The rest of their material is good too.

Re: Rage Against The Machine
A true classic. I have the first album on CD and Vinyl.

If you like that album and you fancy a similar fusion then you should try Bad Brains - I against I. Instead of Rap Metal it is Reggae Metal and comes with all the angst and fury of RATM with the more subtle sound of Reggae.

Re: Rage Against The Machine
Saw RATM at a festival years ago and although they had no audience rapport they were so powerful live ....glad I wasn't up the front as it looked wild!!

Albums 1 + 3 are my favs, but the others are also worth it! Great band and one of a kind really!

Re: Rage Against The Machine
I revisited the Renegades album today along with Evil Empire. Up to now i would rate Renegades above EE.

Just my opinion.

Lets not forget their track 'Wake Up' in The Matrix .........

I will be purchasing my copy - after the 13th dec of course

I don't think S Cowell from Beverly Hills will be though. He thinks it's "stupid" and "cynical". (does he mean the x factor? )

Been a fan for a long time.

Other bands to try are :

Bad Brains - I against I which is a blend of Reggae and metal.

Living Colour- Everything is possible (an impossible blend of every type of music and metal-incredibly talented mash up)

Faith No more-Angel Dust (Mike Patton is all you need to know-total innovation).

I used to be a big fan of Faith No More and Living Colour back in my teens. Had no idea that Living Colour released a new album and did some UK tour dates earlier this month, as would've been well up for that having finally got to see their contemporaries Alice in Chains live for the first time a couple of weeks ago

Might be of interest to anyone thinking of joining the RatM Christmas campaign from 13th:
