The Battle of Los Angeles

Released 1999Metal
Classic

A polished, furious peak of rap-metal fire. Sharp and acclaimed. A high point. Released in 1999, it's one of Rage Against the Machine's later high points.

On vinyl: Vinyl can be scarcer than the CD from this era, so it's worth looking for a recent repressing.
