        Rage Against The Machine self-titled track Rage Against The Machine was released June sixth of nineteen ninety-two by Epic Records.  This cd has ten songs Bombtrack, Killing In The Name, Take The Power Back, Settle For Nothing, Bullet in The Head, Know Your Enemy, Wake Up, Fistful of Steel, Township Rebellion, and Freedom. Band members Zack De La Rocha lead singer, guitarist Tom Morello, guitarist Tim Commerford, and drummer Brad Wilk.

Finally it builds back up in till end of the song.
