Just a great album by a legendary band! What I love about this album is how Rage was able to cover songs that originally were not from the same genre which makes this album by far is the most experimental and unique record that they've ever released. Personally, I think this is their second best album next to their self-titled debut.

Quality, i just cant get enough of the funky beats mixed with meaningful lyrics, Morello and Commerford is like a match made in heaven.
Adrian R gave it a9:
If there's one thing that comes out loud and clear in Rage's music, it's that they aren't politicaly driven by any clear ideology, and they aren't a capitalist device for brainwashing impessionable youth like I've heard some ppl say. Renegades proves they're just a massively talented group of core rockers who like to challenge the status quo. It's about not being satisfied with mediocrity and apathy. Somehow they don't quite come full circle or prove a definative statement, but they do provide some unreal headbangers to enjoy regardless of your social beliefs or situation.
Jim H gave it a9:
There are missteps here (covering the Stones' Streetfightin' Man, for example) but there are many remakes here that are superior reimaginings ("Tom Joad," "How I Could Just Kill A Man," the title track, a handful of others). Morello is at his peak here; he never was better nor has he been better since.

Awesome album, the songs are done better than the originals!
Walla gave it a10:
The kick ass tribute album we have all been waiting for. The adapted music is amazing and Zack de La Rocha is better than ever.

I honestly think that RAGe dida fantastic job with this album. Hearing the originals just wont cut it for me anymore. Every song that Rage covers is excellent. At first i was upset that they didn't write any new songs but then after listening to the album over and over again i became more and more aware of the fact that turn classic songs into something differant (and in my opion better) is much cooler. The only sad thing about Rage is that they no longer exist but they will always be my favorite band to play at any occasion.
