This awesome shirt is a 90s original from the band Rage Against the Machine, and it's an example of the first official promotional tee that the band ever released. Rage Against the Machine exploded onto the alternative rock scene in the early 90s with their eponymous debut album. The album was based largely on their first commercial demo tape, and it contained the same politically-charged content that they would come to be known for. Singles off the record included "Killing in the Name", "Bullet it the Head", and "Bombtrack", and the cover featured a crop of the famous photo taken by Malcolm Browne, of Buddhist monk Thich Quang Duc's self-immolation.

The album immediately established RATM's anti-authoritarianism and anti-capitalist views, and it set the stage for the success of their follow up, Evil Empire. Released in 1996, the album debuted at the top of the Billboard chart, and it also earned the group the Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance for the song "Tire Me". Meanwhile the singles "Bulls on Parade" and "People of the Sun" also received Grammy nominations. The band's success then continued into the early 2000s with the albums The Battle of Los Angeles and Renegades.

Fits like a modern unisex adult Extra Large. There are some small holes, see pics.
