Rage Against the Machine announce Australian dates

While some (including myself) thought that the RATM reunion at Coachella music festival was a one-off, it seems like the band are well and truly back together, with a mission to fix politics all over again. Said Tom Morello to MTV:

"It occurred to all of us that the times were right to see if we can knock the Bush administration out in one fell swoop, and we hope to do that job well… There is no action without reaction. And we're part of that reaction"

Rage against the machine will be bringing their 'reaction' to Australia early 2008, playing Sydney Entertainment Centre on January 22, and Melbourne's Festival Hall on January 30. And while not announced as yet, I think it's almost safe to assume that a Big Day Out appearance is on the cards.
