Prophets of Rage

Had to get this one out there. Tom Morello's new band played at Whiskey A Go Go. Video and more at Raw Story:

In 2000, Rage Against the Machine famously played outside the Democratic National Convention at Staples Center, disrupting the event with frontman Zack de la Rocha's claim that "our democracy has been hijacked." Now, after Tuesday night's tiny but raucous club show — the first public performance by Prophets of Rage — Morello, Commerford and Wilk appear determined to do it again when Donald Trump arrives in Cleveland to accept his party's expected nomination for president.

That altered lyric wasn't the only sign that Prophets of Rage has politics (and Trump in particular) in mind. There also was Morello's red baseball cap, which lampooned the controversial businessman's familiar campaign item with text that read "Make America Rage Again." And there was B-Real's dedication of a new song, "The Party's Over," to Trump, whose name he spit out like a foul taste.

get into this. I saw him recently at the Okeechobee Music festival where he played with Mumford and Sons

He didn't mention Trump but Mumford lead went into a rant and finished with saying "Fuck you America" for Donald Trump.
