The official video for "Prophets Of Rage" — a re-imagination of the PUBLIC ENEMY track of the same name — from PROPHETS OF RAGE can be seen below. The song is taken from the band's debut EP, "The Party's Over", which landed on position No. 5 on Billboard's Top Rock Albums chart with first-week sales of 7,000. The effort also entered the Hard Rock Albums chart at No. 2 and Alternative Albums chart at No. 4. PROPHETS OF RAGE is the supergroup featuring members of RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE, PUBLIC ENEMY's Chuck D and CYPRESS HILL's B-Real. "The Party's Over" was released on August 26. The five-song effort also includes live versions of RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE's "Killing In The Name" and PUBLIC ENEMY's "Shut 'Em Down", a Republican National Convention-inspired interpretation of BEASTIE BOYS' "No Sleep 'Till Brooklyn" called "No Sleep 'Till Cleveland", and the new original "The Party's Over".

"And we give a lot of credit and honor to Zack at every show because his lyrics are brilliant." In July, PROPHETS OF RAGE released the "Prophets Of Rage" single through digital download and streaming services. Featuring new music and a new original verse from B-Real, the single was recorded with legendary producer Brendan O'Brien who has done notable work with RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE and AUDIOSLAVE.
