Armed with the fury of classic punk acts as Minor Threat and Bad Brains, blended with intelligent vocals and a serious commitment to providing a positive alternative to the oft-dreary and disenchanted aura that engulfs most punk bands, Chicago’s Rise Against might be seen as an outcast amongst its peers. “It was almost cool to be negative, especially around Chicago,” bassist Joe Principe recalls. “So, vocalist Tim [McIlrath] and I had this main goal of putting a positive light on things. There are so many bands that sing about negative things, and we kind of wanted to use this to show people it’s OK to voice your opinions and stay positive. We just wanted to be more productive, lyrically.” “It’s not so much as we’re a political band, but what we feel is our so More...

Rise Against, you changed my life... answeri for the comment"drums" | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Paper Wings performed by Rise Against Well, I´m a drummer too. And I can tell you: The drummer isnt as good as its seems to you. I´m playing the drums now for approxamtaley 2 years and i can play all of the songs written by RA (I know someone else can play the earlier as i do, I know im not a good drummer blah blah ). so the drummer isnt bad is he. But he isnt the best. hes playing the same patterns alot. Btw I love this song :) it's not what you say, its how u say it | Reviewer: jacob ------ About the song State Of The Union performed by Rise Against For those who have been saying that alot of bands make songs about politics and problems, you're right, they do. But in my opinion, Rise Against puts a different turn on things, its not what your saying, it's how you say it. Rise Against is a perfect example. wow | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Generation Lost performed by Rise Against wow, thats all i have to say, and i think that's all that needs to be said. An awesome band with a bunch of awesome songs. Actually i take that back...ALL of their songs are awesome and worth listening to why hello there | Reviewer: Austin ------ About the song Like The Angel performed by Rise Against We'll, in a sense I sort of dislike this song. And I really don't know why, the lyrics are awesome and the music couldn't be better, I first heard it on tony hawks underground. And this song sort of introduced me to Rise Against. But I dunno what it is...maybe just because this one a prayer of refugee are the 2 main songs people know, along with give it all. Well...no, I guess I like this song, I just don't really care to hear it a lot like I do most Rise Against songs. opinions | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Hero of War performed by Rise Against i really enjoy reading all these opinions on this song. especially the soldiers one, and those who actually understand war and can write correctly. personally i think this song has so much more to it then what we see. looking at other Rise Against songs, they use a lot of metaphors. Some are like trying to work out BYOB. But, I do think this song has a lot to do with previous wars, more so then current ones. This thing's obviously don't happen any more. I see this song as the things the soldiers remember, as opposed to what the general public remembers. I think it tells a lot how they will remember the bad things, and when they see people honering them, not that they dislike it, but the soldiers know the public don't understand all the bad things that they saw, and went through. my opinion | Reviewer: fran_biquard@hotmail.com ------ About the song Injection performed by Rise Against i believe everyone's right, although i might like to take it to the sentimental and loving part, i believe its a couple where he/she is suffering and he wants the other part to stop hurting him, "give me the drug" (love)"Pull this plug" is like cut off this, its killing me. That would be my perspective, although it doesnt sound clear xD email me if you think my perspective got flaws or anything Uhm, best band ever. | Reviewer: Amanda ------ About artist/band Rise Against Well I must say that, in my opinion, Rise Against is the best band out there :D I think it's because of how unique they are among the other punk rock groups.. and Tim McIlrath's voice is just so angsty and unique :D But the whole band, just amazing. Their music is all I ever listen to anymore. (: Meh | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Good Left Undone performed by Rise Against Wow, this song is amazing. I have always loved this song and thought I knew the meaning to it. That was before I broke up with my girlfriend. We weren't getting along and arguing constantly and I felt like she was very unhappy with our relationship, so I broke up with her so she could be happy. There is not a day that goes by where I don't think about it though. I love her so much and miss her more than anything and still have very strong feelings for her. forget about it | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Under The Knife performed by Rise Against guys, who the hell cares what the lyrics mean? its a good song, and you don't see anyone arguing with that. Forget what the damn lyrics mean and just listen to songs for the songs themselves, not to find some secret meaning that Rise Against may or may not intended Why? | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Give It All performed by Rise Against Emo is a hype, your either 'normal' (mainstream) or your emo, it's just how it is. If you don't like it, wait for another 5 years and we'll have a new mindflow to piss on. -Concluded by a 17 year old- It makes me cry | Reviewer: Ale ------ About the song The Good Left Undone performed by Rise Against I made out with the boy I was in love with... It was like a flower that found me when i WAS ALL ALONE. But then his girlfriend found out about it and I tried to return the flower to the ground but It was too late and I felt the burn! And the storm came to me... a storm of insults and I felt alone again! :( 1984 | Reviewer: seano ------ About the song Prayer Of The Refugee performed by Rise Against it's very clearly a song with dystopian themes; think in terms of orwell's 1984, and the type of winston and julia sort of relationship, don't let me down might as well be don't sell me out and the verses describe the yearning for a time that someone doesn't really remember and the compliance with a 'big brother' style machinelike government. religion is not a subject matter, but a parallel, calling to mind the fervor of secret defiance and underground movements. No religious meaning whatsoever. | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Prayer Of The Refugee performed by Rise Against There is no religious message in this song. "Prayer" is used to describe something that you desperately want or need. This song is about the laborers in factories that are placed in extremely poor countries without wage laws. It's also just really, really good song. Meanings | Reviewer: Sarah ------ About the song Ready To Fall performed by Rise Against Every Song has a meaning. But every one has there own interpritation of lyrics. Like I could think that this song is just about people standing on rootops screaming and waiting to fall. well thats not what I really think. So no one is to be exactly the meaning of this. I look at lyrics completly diffrent from everyone and I look at them in a way they have to do with my life. This band is awesome i love them. Flip out. | Reviewer: Sarah ------ About the song Heaven Knows performed by Rise Against wow just all flip put case there awesome and you flip out cause you think there emo? ell just cause they know what they are doing and you don't that doesn't mean a thing. just cause it's there song and you jeolouse. Well you see all together there better than all of yous. They aren't emo, and what is they were? why would you care? story of my life....... | Reviewer: samantha ------ About the song Swing Life Away performed by Rise Against this is my fav rise against song, actually to be honest im not really that big of a fan but this song has made it to the top 5 of my favorite songs of all time. the idea that happiness is in the little things and life is what u make of it has been my main outlook on life since i was old enough to understand the concept. people always think im crazy because money is the last thing on mind and always has been, ive always just wanted to live a humble life with the people i care about. this is currently me and my boyfriends song, actually we fell in love to this song in a way. anyways i love it! potential meaning | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Ready To Fall performed by Rise Against this song seems to be talking about how everything we think to be so great growing up in life we realize as we grow older that it could majoritively be insignificant. this song is amazing and so is a lot of their songs and has a lot of good meanings. Wow you guys. | Reviewer: Geez ------ About the song Give It All performed by Rise Against Please stop arguing! Geez, seriously? I'm in seventh grade and obviously more mature that some, if not all of you. Why do you have to make stupid remarks about if the song is emo or not? Some songs are emotional but that doesn't mean they're emo, come on guys. And what if it was? YOU'RE the ones listening to it. this is not emo | Reviewer: brendan ------ About the song Give It All performed by Rise Against allright i love this song its fricken awesome and not emo, but some people got the wrong argument. yes emo means emotional but the term has pretty much been given a different meaning by society, like "emotional wreck" make sense. this song is not for emotional wrecks You could review the artist/band Rise Against in Biography page You could review Rise Against album by visiting Albums page and selecting an album You could review Rise Against song by clicking the song which you like  Download "Rise Against" Music | |
