Review taken from Rollingstone.com:



Heavy metal has never been much of a forum for political discourse.

Not that all razor-edged rockers are lunkheads, but many are just too

narcissistic to see beyond their own narrow world Either they're obsessed

with decadence and debauchery or consumed by misery and hatred.

Neither situation leaves much room for intelligent discussion

of the issues of the day.



Rage Against the Machine hope to change that with their inflammatory

blend of roaring guitars, barked raps and political activism.

Their lyrics lambaste government corruption, media manipulation, big business,

complacency and ambivalence, and the band members practice what they preach.

Since the release of their debut album in 1992, they've walked onstage

naked at Lollapalooza with electric tape over their mouths to protest

music censorship, played a benefit show for the death-row inmate

Mumia Abu-Jamal and spoken out against the imprisonment of the American

Indian Movement leader Leonard Peltier.



Rage's first album adhered a bit too closely to the band's influences,

invoking the force of Black Sabbath, the swaggering stomp of Led Zeppelin and

the confrontational rap style of Public Enemy. The lyrics lashed out against

a range of domestic problems, including police brutality,

the educational system and innercity violence. But while the album was ambitious,

it failed to meet its lofty goals. Disaffected teens rallied behind

the cries of "Fuck you/I won't do what you told me," from "Killing in the Name," but

they seemed to view Rage's appeal as an excuse to skip school and take drugs.



That was four years ago, and since that time, Rage Against the Machine have

honed their marksmanship and fine-tuned their agenda. If the band's first

album was a call to arms, Evil Empire is a declaration of war, only this time,

many of the group's diatribes are aimed at foreign soil. Vocalist and

lyricist Zack De La Rocha has become involved with the continuing

struggle of the Zapatistas, a group of Mexican farmers seeking emancipation

from the ruling class, and at least three songs on Evil Empire address the issue.

On "Without a Face," which features tornado guitar gusts that build and dip over

a sparse funk beat, De La Rocha outlines the dilemma: "Maize was all we needed

to sustain/Now her golden skin burns insecticide rain/Ya down with DDT, yeah, you

know me/Raped for the grapes, profit for the bourgeois."



Elsewhere, the band focuses its sights on the U.S. military ("Bulls on Parade"),

the American dream ("Tire Me") and right-wing talk shows ("Vietnow").

De La Rocha has always been radical in his beliefs, but on Evil Empire,

he comes off like a hybrid of the Terminator and Robin Hood, on a mission

to annihilate the power elite and redistribute the wealth.



On a sonic level the band still anchors its sound in the music of Led Zeppelin

and Red Hot Chili Peppers, but its horizons have widened, and it now incorporates

influences like Fugazi and Helmet. Rage also have acquired a greater

understanding of hip-hop and funk and have injected the techniques of artists

such as Dr. Dre, Cypress Hill, and Sly and the Family Stone into their

turbocharged rhythms. As a result, there's a greater synergy between

the music and the message.



Making better use of dynamics, guitarist Tom Morello coaxes a startling array

of sounds from his strings and effect pedals. At various moments the guitars

resemble power drills, machine guns and fax machines. "Bulls on Parade" incorporates

funky wah-wah guitar strums and an intricate record-scratching solo

into a blasting rhythm. "Wind Below" is driven by a riff that recalls

a slowed-down version of Zeppelin's "Black Dog," and "Revolver" starts with

underwater guitar echoes that sound like "EXP," by Jimi Hendrix, before

shifting into a murky, psychedelic section similar to Zeppelin's "No Quarter" and

ending with a punk riff reminiscent of Beck's "Mutherfuker."



In an era in which political candidates are weaker than Styrofoam and the American

public grows more ambivalent by the minute, perhaps De La Rocha's radical

rhetoric can make a difference. As Plato said, "The introduction of a new kind

of music must be shunned as imperiling the whole state, since styles of music

are never disturbed without affecting the most important political institutions."
