The Prodigy: 'We're Buying Rage Against The Machine And So Should You'

December 11, 2009
The Prodigy: 'We're Buying Rage Against The Machine And So Should You'The Prodigy have given their backing to the campaign to get Rage Against The Machine's 'Killing In The Name' to Christmas number one.

The Facebook group urging people to download the track next week to keep The X Factor off the top spot now has an astonishing 612,000 members.

Writing on The Prodigy's Facebook page this afternoon, band lynchpin Liam Howlett said: “Yo yo , we are behind and back getting rage ' killing in the name ' to number 1 this Christmas instead of some shite off of x-factor .... oh what fun that would be , ha ha ha .......we will all be buying it and you should too ..... master H

As we reported earlier, bookmakers William Hill have slashed the odds of 'Killing In The Name' scoring the Chrimbo number one from 100/1 to 3/1.

As some proceeds of the X Factor song are going to charity, those pledging their support to the RATM campaign can donate to Shelter - a charity helping the homeless - HERE.

BUY IT!
