Release Notes

The Sufferer & the Witness [Edited]: Release Notes: Muze
Rise Against: Tim McIlrath (vocals, guitar); Chris Chasse (guitar, background vocals); Joe Principe (bass guitar, background vocals); Brandon Barnes (drums).Competent pop-punk brushed with adult bathos is the bill of fare on Rise Against's 2006 album, THE SUFFERER AND THE WITNESS. The Chicago group have everything working in their favor here, with top-shelf production by genre veterans Bill Stevenson (All, Descendents, Black Flag) and Jason Livermore (The Ataris), and an appearance in the 2005 film LORDS OF DOGTOWN building momentum for the group. Musically, Rise Against reside at the intersection of aggression, melody, experience, and emotion, merging the heart-on-sleeve sounds of mid-'80s DC hardcore with professionally solid pop a la Weezer. Singer Tim McIlrath's dusky holler is the uniting factor, carrying songs like the anthemic "Prayer of the Refugee" over the finish line with determination and grit.

The Sufferer & the Witness [Edited]: MUZE Review
Muze

Rolling Stone (p.102) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "With even more shout-along moments and topsy-turvy action, it's rousing, tightly wound and could be the album of the summer for anybody who needs a good yowl in their lives."Spin (p.85) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Guitars rev up and wind down, rhythms blitz forward, then ease off, and frontman Tim McIlrath is just as comfortable crooning an emo power ballad as screaming..."Entertainment Weekly (p.67) - "[T]heir relentless riffs, howling screamo choruses, and pissed-off rhetoric clearly connect with a new generation..." -- Grade: B+Q (p.115) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Raw and splenetic, their wild-eyed anthems burn with anti-establishment fury. There's no let-up in the pace."Alternative Press (p.204) - 4 out of 5 -- "SUFFERER delivers blow after blow, polished to perfection by producer Bill Stevenson..."Kerrang (Magazine) (p.51) - "[Their] different styles mix together to form something both gut-wrenching and life-affirming."
