I think Rage Against the Machine is a genius band and they just completely nail everything they do. Demand your attention with loud and aggressive smashing and then pound it all into your head in a very satisfying way. Thick and heavy stuff that's at the same time unbelievably infectious. Guitar solo sections are uncanny. De la rocha can spit a seriously mad flow and then go on to rip some of the fiercest and meatiest screams I've ever heard.
I did reacquaint myself with the self titled like five times yesterday and it us badass city. 10/10 album. |

It's been years since I listened to their self-titled and I enjoyed it quite a lot when I was a teen. Not quite sure what level of enjoyment I'd get from it now. But I can certainly say that Evil Empire and The Battle of Los Angeles were nowhere near as good as it. They were also a tight live band when I saw them in 2008 when they reformed.
I can't remember who it was (it might have been Urban) who described RATM as something along the lines of 'Fisher-Price My First Political Band', which might be somewhat accurate as in they are a gateway band to better political music.
