According to a Twistedear.com, reunited political rock act Rage Against The Machine are apparently readying to record their first album of new material in nearly ten years. The report says that the band is in talks of recording their new album for their longtime label Sony and expect to release it in 2009, a source explained: "We're hopeful, but a new album is far from definite."
Frontman
Zack de la Rocha, who just recently started a new band
One Day As A Lion, also spoke to
Los Angeles Times last month about the possibility of new material, saying:
"We’re going to keep playing shows - we have a couple of big ones happening in front of both conventions. As far as us recording music in the future, I don’t know where we all fit with that. We’ve all embraced each other’s projects and support them, and that’s great."
Until last year, Rage Against The Machine had been broken up since 2000 when de la Rocha started a low-key solo career. The rest of the band formed the rock supergroup Audioslave with former Soundgarden frontman Chris Cornell, which disbanded in 2007. In April 2007, Rage Against The Machine performed together for the first time in seven years at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. The band has continued to perform at multiple live venues since.
Rage Against The Machine last released "Renegades", which is comprised entirely of cover songs, shortly after the breakup.
