Are Rage Against The Machine Planning A Reunion?

UPDATE: It appears there isn't going to be a Rage Against the Machine reunion but a new supergroup formed with members of Public Enemy and Cypress Hill.

Prophets of Rage is reportedly RATM guitarist Tom Morello, bassist Tim Commerford and drummer Brad Wilk fronted by Public Enemy’s Chuck D and Cypress Hill’s B-Real. Zack de la Rocha is not involved.

Another iconic 90s rock band could be getting back together with the internet buzzing with speculation that Rage Against The Machine are reuniting...

A countdown clock, called ‘Prophets of Rage,’ has been launched at prophetsofrage.com ticking away until the clock expires on June 1.

Along with the countdown clock there is an image of a broken slash through a circle with silhouettes of five people all extending their arms and clenched fists with the hashtag #takethepowerback underneath which is most likely reference to the Rage song of the same name. 

People can then input their email address, where they will then receive an email labeled “Clear the Way” with in image inside reading “Clear the way for the prophets of rage,”  which is from a Public Enemy song called “Prophets of Rage.”

Fuelling the internet fires, Public Enemy's Chuck D. posted a video of Rage Against the Machine performing “Bulls on Parade” live in 2010 to his Twitter page, suggesting that Public Enemy could be involved in some kind of co-headlining tour.

Stay tuned for more details...
