In late 1994, Rage Against the Machine took a hiatus from touring, sparking rumors that they had broken up. According to an anonymous source reporting to MTV News , Rage Against the Machine had recorded 23 tracks with producer Brendan O’Brien in Atlanta starting in November 1994, and briefly broke up due to violent infighting in the band, before regrouping for the KROQ Weenie Roast in June 1995. Morello later said there had been conflicts over their musical direction, which were reconciled.
