Redcoats Take Upper Hand in U.K.'s Revolutionary War

The table's have turned dramatically as we update the Rage Against the Machine vs. X Factor situation. X Factor winner, Joe McElderry, is officially 11,000 units AHEAD of Rage as we close out the week and RATM needs to pull out all the stops.

Rage Against The Machine have announced plans to play a free concert in the UK if their single "Killing In The Name" beats Joe McElderry's "The Climb" in the race to be Christmas Number One. The band will head over to UK shores for a special one-off "thank you" gig in 2010 if they win and are planning to invite X Factor judge Simon Cowell to MC at the show.

Rage Against The Machine guitarist Tom Morello said: "Attention Freedom Fighters! RAGE VS. X-FACTOR WILL BE DECIDED BY SALES. Spread the word! Knock on doors! Host downloading parties! Knock over ladies buying X-Factor! The clock is ticking. And if 'Killing In The Name' is number one WE ARE COMING. And it will be the victory party to end all victory parties."

Final numbers-and distinctive winner- will be announced later today.
