Rage Against The Machine have broken the silence surrounding rehearsals for their reunion shows. The band are set to play the Coachella Festival in California in late April, plus three dates at the Rock The Bells hip-hop festival in July and August. "It sounds awesome in the room," guitarist Tom Morello said of rehearsals. "We remember how to play those songs; it's pretty much like riding a bike." Morello also said he felt now was a good time for the band to return. "These times, I think, demand a voice like Rage Against The Machine. "Rage was certainly the most outspoken and radical voice in music in the 90s, and in the seven years Rage was away the country went to hell. So I think it's overdue that we're back."
