11/10/2012 RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE
In uscita un box set del primo album per festeggiare il ventennale

La data di uscita di "XX", box set per festeggiare i vent'anni del primo album intitolato "Rage Against The Machine", è fissata per il 22 novembre 2012. L'album esprime l'energia e la rabbia dei quattro, con pezzi di immediata presa dopo i primi ascolti, come "Bombtrack", "Take the Power Back" e "Know Your Enemy". In altri pezzi, la band riesce a creare un lento crescendo di potenza e rabbia, come nel caso di "Settle for Nothing" e "Bullet in the Head", mentre in altri l'ossessiva ripetizione di parole (Freedom) o di intere frasi la fa da padrona (Killing in the Name: "Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me"). Sulla traccia "Know Your Enemy" la seconda voce è di Maynard James Keenan, cantante dei Tool. Qui il contenuto del box set. CD 1: 01. ''Bombtrack''; 02. ''Killing In The Name''; 03.
