Rise Against - Appeal To Reason - VINYL LP

Chicago's Rise Against is anything but a single-minded musical outfit. An astounding fusion of unhinged power, ear-grasping melodies, stimulating lyrics and the ability to reach audiences in both underground and mainstream circles, they have redefined the rules. We're a band that's done everything from hardcore songs to pop songs to acoustic ballads that get played on the radio,' says vocalist/guitarist Tim McIlrath. The Sufferer & the Witness, their 4th album, continues to build upon the solid punk foundation - it is a striking collection, with Rise Against using elements from spoken word, expanded balladry, and simply plodding forward with a faster, harder, louder ethic.

Chicago's Rise Against might be seen as an outcast amongst it's peers. Armed with the fury of classic punk acts such as minor threat and bad brains. They blend intelligent vocals with a serious commitment to providing a positive alternative to the oft-dreary and disenchanted arura that engulfs most punk bands.
