This is one seriously great album. As a guitarist I love Tom Morello's style- from his inventive stuff ("Bullet in the Head") to more traditional style (Solo on "Freedom"). Zack's vocals are very emotive and suit their political message wonderfully.
The thing I really loved about this album was how it gave off the feeling that you were really there in the recording studio with them. This is due to Zack's vocals as he throws in various shouts such as "URGH!" and "Bop! Bop! WEEEEEEEEEE!". While this might sound stupid when you're reading this review, it only adds to the music and helps keep the album alive.
The lyrics are excellent, and even if you don't like Rage's style but are interested in politics it is still worthwhile to have a peek at the lyrics to see what they think.
As for highlights of the album... my personal fave's include "Bombtrack", "Killing in the name of", "Take the Power Back", Bullet in the Head", "Know Your Enemy", "Wake Up", "Township Rebellion", and "Freedom"... which accounts for most of the songs on the album- it really is that good :o)
Everytime you listen to this it just keeps getting better. If you don't have it, buy it now!!! :o)
