Rage Against the Machine might be reuniting, according to their bassist

Testify.

Like all great albums, the appeal of Rage Against the Machine's body of work is that any music fan, regardless of their age, can listen to their records and be absolutely blown away by their remarkable body of work. In fact, RATM's debut album is a stunning record that still sounds like a Molotov cocktail of hip-hop, metal and funk has just been detonated in your eardrums.

Fans of the band will remember their memorable gigs at Oxegen and in The Point, but a reunion could be on the cards, according to bassist Tim Commerford.

Speaking with Kerrang, he said: “I am a fan of [RATM] as much as I am a member and, like any RATM fan, it’s something I hope can one day happen.

“My relationship with Zack is the best it’s been in a long time – and we’ve known each other since we were little kids. I really enjoy my relationship with Zack right now. If it gets no better than it is at the moment then I’m happy with that, because I love the guy. I wanna grow up and be an old man and hang out with him., just being bros. That’s the most important thing.”

RATM stopped touring and recording music in 2000 before they reunited for a series of tours from 07-11, and their bassist said that another reunion is a distinct possibility.

"I am hopeful, because I believe that’s how you do it… That’s how you make things happen, by connecting with people in a real way. We’re like brothers and the future is bright. RATM is not broken up, we never broke up. Keep your fingers crossed" he added.

As things currently lie, three members of RATM have teamed up with members of Cypress Hill and Public Enemy to form Prophets Of Rage, singer Zack De La Rocha is currently working on his solo material and Commerford has a new band ,Wakrat.
