About this album

Epic 11 tracks (46:21)
Evil Empire is the second album by Rage Against the Machine. Released on April 16, 1996, almost four years after the band’s first, self-titled album named Rage Against the Machine.
The album’s title is taken from the phrase “evil empire”, which was used by former U.S. President Ronald Reagan and many Western conservatives in describing the former Soviet Union.

The track “Bulls on Parade” became the first single and, as with their debut, five singles were released in total.

Evil Empire debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200. The song “Tire Me” won the 1996 Grammy award for Best Metal Performance. The tracks “Bulls on Parade” and “People of the Sun” were both nominated for Grammy’s for Best Hard Rock Performance in separate years.

    @Soundservant - Never claimed it needed it or anything. Someone just mentioned it, and I thought it could be interesting. I agree with you though. Evil Empire is probably my favourite album of all time, and is perfect as it is. Still, as i said, it could be fun to see what a remastered version could do with it.

    "A remastered version of this and their s/t could be fun :)" This does NOT need a remaster! It sounds so great already and a remaster will only make it worse.

    "My first RATM album. Man, this album brings me so much memories." Same here. Bought it in 97, brought it home and it kicked my ass. :) I switched between this record and Panteras "Vulgar Display of Power" for weeks. Still not tired of either of them. 90's class!
