RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE: Listen To Classic Remastered Songs Of 'XX' (Anniversary Edition)!

"It doesn't feel like 20 years, but at the same time it's sobering that it is," Morello says. "There's no crystal ball that we could've looked into when we were writing these songs in 1991 that would have told us we'd be talking about this record over two decades later. And I will say that 20 years later we're able to take pride in the fact that in the history of rock music there has never been a more popular band with as radical politics as Rage Against The Machine, nor has there been a band with more radical politics than Rage Against The Machine that has been as popular. That is the lasting testament to the first shot fired by this album and how it continues to resonate with rebels around the world."
