Rage Against the Machine – Evil Empire (180g Vinyl 2018 Reissue)

Description

Originally released in 1996, Evil Empire is Rage Against the Machine’s sharpened, militant follow‑up to their explosive debut. The album refines their fusion of hip‑hop cadence, metal riffing, and political fire into a tighter, more rhythmic assault.

With anthems like “Bulls on Parade”, “People of the Sun”, and the Grammy‑winning “Tire Me”, the record cemented RATM as one of the most vital and uncompromising bands of the ’90s.
This 180g remastered reissue delivers powerful low‑end, crisp detail, and the full weight of Brendan O’Brien’s production — a premium way to experience one of the decade’s defining heavy albums.
