RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE rocking together one more time at L.A.'s 'Coachella'

Seven years after their break-up, RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE is reuniting for the 2007 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival this spring. Rage will headline one of the three nights of the festival, which will run from April 27-29 in Indio, CA. Other acts topping the bill include the RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS and Bjork.

Frontman Zach de la Rocha has kept a low profile since the seminal Rock band's split, which the other three members went on to form AUDIOSLAVE with Chris Cornell. Audioslave has been taking time off since the release of last year's Revelations, while Cornell works on a solo record. Rage co-headlined the initial Coachella festival in 1999, and this year's performance is expected to be a one-off gig and not lead to a full-on reunion.

In related news, guitarist Tom Morello will release a solo album in April under his alter ego, The Nightwatchman. One Man Revolution was produced by Brendan O'Brien and will be released on April 24. Morello will tour behind the record this spring, including an appearance at South By Southwest and a solo set of his own at Coachella.

Tickets for the 2007 Coachella fest go on sale this Saturday, January 27. The full lineup was unveiled today and includes The Arcade Fire, Interpol, Willie Nelson, Lily Allen, The Roots, Sonic Youth, Arctic Monkeys and the reunited Crowded House. A number of British artists are making rare appearances Stateside, including Jarvis Cocker, The Happy Mondays and Damon Albarn's new project, The Good, The Bad & The Queen. Scottish band Travis will also mark their return to the U.S. for the first time in a few years as well. Other acts lined up for Coachella include Fountains Of Wayne, Damien Rice, Placebo, Perry Farrell's Satellite Party, Regina Spektor, Rufus Wainwright and The Decemberists.
