WAKRAT TO OPEN FOR PROPHETS OF RAGE ON 'MAKE AMERICA RAGE AGAIN' TOUR

WAKRAT have been confirmed as the opening act for PROPHETS OF RAGE on their recently-announced North American tour.

Kicking off on August 19th at the EagleBank Arena in Fairfax, Virginia, the tour promises to #MakeAmericaRageAgain as it storms across the USA and Canada ahead of WAKRAT's debut album release later this year.

As a member of both PROPHETS OF RAGE and WAKRAT, bassist Tim Commerford (RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE, AUDIOSLAVE) will be pulling double duties on the tour, and also provides lead vocals for WAKRAT.

Tim Commerford commented on WAKRAT's recent signing: "We are gearing up to be on the offensive, assaulting the populous with our debut album on Earache Records.  We have put a shit load of blood and sweat into this and we want it back!  Our mission is to attack modern music and smash the grid.  Unapologetic, unrelenting, unbridled and uncensored.  Understood?"
