Rage Against the Machine, Public Enemy, Cypress Hill Members Form Prophets of Rage Supergroup

Prophets of Rage, the supergroup featuring members of Rage Against the Machine, Public Enemy, and Cypress Hill, have officially announced their existence. The group's lineup is: Rage Against the Machine's Tom Morello, Tim Commerford, and Brad Wilk, Public Enemy's Chuck D and DJ Lord, and Cypress Hill's B-Real. Zack de la Rocha is not involved. They'll debut tonight at the Whiskey a Go-Go in Los Angeles, and will perform songs by all three groups, as well as new music. Proceeds from the show will benefit PATH, an organization that works to end homelessness. In an interview with KROQ, Morello referred to the band as "an elite task force of revolutionary musicians." Watch the interview below. They also teased more news through a forthcoming countdown on their website. (A previous countdown ended this morning, though the website subsequently glitched.)
