Rage Against the Machine will reunite for Coachella Red Hot Chili Peppers and Björk also top the bill for the three-day music festival. By Geoff Boucher, Times Staff Writer January 22, 2007 http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/music/la-et-coachella22jan22,1,6747076.story?coll=la-headlines-entnews&ctrack=1&cset=true
Rage Against the Machine, the seminal L.A. band that made heavy music into political manifesto, will reunite after a seven-year lull for one show as the headliners at the 2007 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
Sources say Rage, which played the main stage at the first Coachella in 1999, will be joined by other familiar faces for the eighth edition of the festival, which covers three days this year and begins April 27: Red Hot Chili Peppers, which headlined in 2003, are back, as is Björk, who topped the bill in 2002.
Organizers were mum this weekend and it was not clear which day Rage or the other acts were slotted to play; that announcement is expected in the next few days. Other acts expected in the eclectic lineup: Arcade Fire, Interpol, Willie Nelson, the Roots, Manu Chao, the Decemberists, Arctic Monkeys, Sonic Youth, Crowded House, Air, Tiësto and Kings of Leon.
Tickets go on sale Saturday, via Ticketmaster. Three-day passes will cost about $250 and there will be a limited number of single-day passes available.
The headliners are not novel, but they are potent. The Peppers are up for their first best album Grammy right now, and Björk remains a mesmerizing figure to fans of avant pop. But in Southern California rock circles, there is very little that could compete with the excitement of a Rage Against the Machine reunion. The quartet's hybrid of funk, rap, metal and leftist ideology was as subtle as a Molotov cocktail; in the 1990s, its aggro-anthems made it the only band that mattered to a fan base that included East L.A. protest kids as well as those in Hollywood punk circles, college dorms and mainstream rock festival mosh pits, where politics were secondary to the group's feral energy.
The band is vocalist Zack de la Rocha, guitarist Tom Morello, bassist Tim Commerford and drummer Brad Wilk. Their split came amid rumors of bad blood between De la Rocha and his mates, who went on to work with Chris Cornell in Audioslave. However, Morello and De la Rocha appeared together at a 2005 rally for the urban farmers of a South Los Angeles community garden.

Audioslave > RATM
At least Chris Cornell can actually SING. His voice is way better than some whiny little bitchy rap voice.

Did I ask you for your insane opinion?? ("auditing" may help ) Zach is the fucking man, and he has allot of important things to say. I like Audioslave but RATM is an awesome band. Great lyrics, great guitar, base, and drums. And a kick ass live show.
You don't like them?? Well there is a button at the top of your browser called "back" try it, no one forced you to read this thread.

yeah that Audioslave>RATM comment is just so incredibly untrue.......anybody with an ear for good music will tell you that. Why is audioslave better? Because they are more mainstream and have hits on the radio? Newsflash, those songs with cornell singing sound just like all the other garbage on the radio these days.
cornells groggy bullshit eddie vedder wannabe voice does nothing but overshadows the unbelievable musical talent of the other three

Bingo! They are a tight band, actually one of the tightest bands EVER. The drum and bass is absolutely amazing, then there is the Morello, anyone that doesn't think he is a visionary that changed the face of music simply isn't paying attention.
Allot of people used to watch the OC, was it a good show? No. Not IMO.

eddie vedder wannabe? get your history straight. chris cornell was singing like that when eddie vedder was still just some hippy surfer in california...
i think rage is sooo much better than audioslave, but not because of chris cornell overshadowing them. i just think that all 4 of them aren't up to snuff anymore. tom morello's guitar work is disapointing to say the least. also, i feel i have to say that rage's drummer has never been all that great. he just plays simple beats which works well for rage's rap based sound. i dunno, i think he's not all that amazing. he just does what fits for the music.
a rage reunion is awesome because they'll play all their best songs from when they had real passion, and they rocked. hopefully they won't play much from their last two (imo) garbage albums.
btw, soundgarden > rage > audioslave

I didn't say I didn't want to read this thread. Nobody is sitting behind me with a gun forcing me to post in it either. I also wasn't aware that I had to get one's permission to post. 
IMO, rappers (which is what he essentially is) have no talent when it comes to vocals. Sure his lyrics might be powerful but maybe if he could SING then he would be better off with the band. His style is just distasteful and if I wanted to hear some high pitched bitchy rapper voice, I'd listen to Eminem or some other BS.

Audioslave is better because they finally have a singer with a powerful, eccentrically robust voice. I must agree that Audioslave's newest CD really isn't as good as it was hyped up to be. However, there is still some good stuff on there. Their first CD was best IMO.
So you base your taste of music on who's playing on the radio? If you hear a band on the radio who sounds close to your favorite band, you must throw away all those CDs. I don't see what being in the radio has to do with talent.
Tool is mainstream rock now. I don't hear anyone hating on them for being on the radio. Sounds like they're "Selling out" to me.
