Rise Against ist schlicht und einfach eine Band mit Philosophie und Mut zum Engagem ent: "Wir machen einfach das\, was wir fhlen oder imstande sind zu tu n"\, sagt der Snger Tim McIlrath ber die Projekte\, die die Band unt ersttzt. Und das sind viele... Sie engagieren sich gegen Rassismus un d insbesondere fr Tierrechte: Alle Mitglieder sind Vegetarier - Tim\, der Snger sogar Veganer - und untersttzen die Organisation Peta. Um die Wiederwahl Prsident Bushs zu verhindern\, untersttzten sie zude m die von Fat Wreck Chords gesponserte Kampagne Punkvoter. Zudem bezie hen Rise Against ihren Merchandise nur aus garantiert Sweatshop-freien Shirtfabriken und kooperieren mit der "Fair Labour Organization". In ihren musikalischen Wurzeln erkennt man vor allem Punk-Gren wie Bad Religion\, Minor Threat und Bad Brains - ein Sound der modern und inn ovativ klingt. Mit energischen aber gradlinigen Songs einigen sich rau e Punkrock-Klnge\, melancholische Momente und sehr viele herausragend e Melodien\, die zu Hymnen zu werden scheinen. Im Februar 2009 wird d as sympathische Quartett aus Chicago acht Zwischenstopps in Deutschlan d einlegen und zusammen mit Strike Anywhere die Clubs rocken. Mit im G epck ihr neues Album "Appeal To Reason" dass am 04. Oktober erscheine n wird.
