Rage Against the Machine Album: “Maximum Rage”

Not music. An informative biography, but quite goofy. Nothing new to any true Rage fan. Very little actual interviews. Not authorized by the band. I would avoid this one at all costs. Hey A.com you need to be more descriptive about your products!

This is a fairly well put together basic biography of Rage Against the Machine intended for fans who wish to learn more about them. Although it doesn't contain many new facts that will interest hardcore fans, its good for new to moderate ones who just want a general overview. Some especially interesting tracks are Chicano Child, a breif overview of Zack's fascinating childhood, and Saturday Night Censor, which is about Rage's brief appearance on Saturday Night Live. I recommend this biography to new to moderate Rage fans, although no hardcore fan's Rage collection is complete without it.

This CD, along with the others in this series offers a wealth of information on specific bands/artists, in this case, Rage Against the Machine. Although there is little music, and that music is not by Rage, the auditory biograhpy is extremely in depth and very informative. This CD is a must-have for ALL Rage fans, and fans of the genre. Also, the quotes from band members and commentary also offer much apreciated interpretations of De La Rocha's encryptive lyrics. The CD could be improved only by using tha band's music, or music inspired by the band, in the background.

MOLOTOV is the only Real Rap/Metal Band out there that really matters,they are from Mexico but belive me they are a million times better and more raw than that electronica based mainstream "Rage against the machine".

Want proof? listen to their album "Donde jugaran las ninas" and judge for yourself.
