Spin (9/99, p.132) - Ranked #26 in Spin Magazine's "90 Greatest Albums of the '90s."

Q (7/01, p.91) - Included in Q's "50 Heaviest Albums of All Time".
Q (3/93, p.90) - 3 Stars - Good - "...they're every bit as angry as their name implies....this is a record of real attitude and energy..."
Alternative Press (11/00, p.144) - Included in AP's "10 Essential Political-Revolution Albums" - "...A debut that channels the aggression of the streets into a guitar-driven polemic. The targets are typical...but [their] integration of hip hop and heavy metal isn't."

Musician (1/93, p.90) - "...Rage Against The Machine offers pointed politics and articulate anger....doesn't just draw from hip-hop and heavy metal, but integrates the two so completely that crossover is no longer an issue..."
Kerrang (Magazine) (p.52) - "[The album] spectacularly fused disparate genres..."
NME (Magazine) (2/6/93, p.29) - 7 - Very Good - "...What makes RATM more than just another bunch of prodigiously capable genre-benders is their total lack of pretension or contrivance....the results burn with an undeniable conviction..."

Pitchfork (Website) - "[A] radical fistful of funk, rap, and rock. Through its power, it remains an essential call to activism and a necessary lesson on how to withstand the opposition."
