Rise Against

I'm at this moment very addicted to Rise Against. My favorite political punk band by far.
Give It All, State of the Union and so many others are amazing songs. And did anybody know that Rise Against's lead singer used to be in a band with Pete Wents of Fall Out Boy?

I love rise against, big fan of the music. New cd wasn't exactly what i expected but the single is great.
If you want political punk listen to Anti-Flag, greatest political punk band around.

Re: Rise Against

Bump:

Rise Against pwn! Easily my favourite band at the moment, Tim's voice is outstanding. Brandon is probably one of my favourite drummers, he comes up with some really sick beats.

Did anybody hear about Chris leaving the band?

Rise Against is NOT punk. What happened to this world? Rise against is a mainstream, sell-out, pop/rock-band. If they are political they simply must be capitalists.

Bro, Anti-Flag really don't have the lyrical talent [or overall skill for that matter] to be a political punk band. If you ask me, Reinventing Axl Rose, the Against Me! album, seems to be the best source of political punk.

I agree. Even though i think americans way to often have a crappy definition of punk. I just assumed you're an american, most people here seem to be americans or britts. The definition of punk here in sweden is not always the same as the american definition, which makes it hard to discuss punk with americans, but now i'm being of topic. The point was that Against me! is good political punk.
