NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Rage Against The Machine's Tim Commerford claims that " 'I’ve been dealing with some pretty serious s**t," as he detailed his journey dealing with prostate cancer. The revelation comes two months after the rock band canceled its North American tour. 

According to Spin Magazine, he said, "I’ve been dealing with some pretty serious s**t," adding, "Right before I was about to go on tour with Rage, I had my prostate removed, and I have prostate cancer." Commerford further stated, "I’ve been someone that’s taken a lot of pride in being in shape and taking care of myself." "But it’s something where either you’re either lucky or not," the musician added.

The musician also explained, "Prostate cancer is a very, very, very tough one because it’s connected to your sexuality. It’s hard to disconnect from that; when you’re forced into that situation, it’s a brutal psychological journey. I’ve been trying to find support groups, and it’s hard to find people and hard to talk about it. The suffering part of it, the physical suffering after the surgery, I’ve never felt pain quite like that."
