let me preface this review by saying that i am 21 years old and a fanatic of ALL forms of music. unfourtunately my generation has produced very few music artists of any signifigance, in any genre of music. The small amount of truly talented artists in this day and age rarely have any new ideas or anything meaningful to say.... That is not the case with Rage Against The Machine. They rank very high on my list of the great music acts of all time. And that is what is so unfortunate about the departure of front man zach de la roche. But you can still hear RATM at the pinnacle of there careers on this record. I personally feel privileged to live in a society where one of the greatest live bands of all time can capture what is probably their greatest live preformance on on a medium such as vinyl.
Double, 15-track, coloured LP. 'The Battle of Mexico City' documents Rage Against The Machine's legendary show at Mexico City's Palacio de los Deportes in 1999. This was the band's first ever show in Mexico and part of their Battle of Los Angeles tour. This release makes its vinyl debut on red and green coloured vinyl with white label as a tribute to the Mexican flag.
