An album with only cover versions of RATM - does that work? "Renegades" is pure overdrive! Hard, terrifically and without breaks the Rages shoot from climax to climax, among others "Maggie's Farm " from Bob Dylan, "Street Fighting Man" from the Stones, "The Ghost Of Tom Joad" of Springsteen (also appeared as single) and " kick Out The Jams " from the MC5.

    Maggie's farm

by Marcel Anders (null) Three records in nine years are not really what they could be proud of. But that's exactly what this band split upon: the controversy of radical political activity and profit-oriented Rock-business. Before they turn to new projects (singer Zack wants to work on his solo-career, the rest of the band remains Rage against the Machine), the four Californians make their will: 12 cover versions out of all genres that have influenced them - HipHop, Funk, Hardcore and 60's Rock. So, Afrika Bambaataa stand next to the blessed Stooges, the Rolling Stones next to Minor Threat and Devo beside Cypress Hill. All of them light-years away from each other, but still the musical foundation for every Rage-song: The combination of supposed contraries, the uniting of musical opposition and lyrical deepness. Consequently, "Renegades" is not only a dignified good-bye but also a tribute to their ideological forerunners. Give credit where credit is due.
