Rise Against (favorite band, album, member, guitarist, cover)

PaperHurricanesAndPlanes · 01-07-2007, 12:09 AM

Rise Against is my second favorite band after Bad Religion.

The Unraveling:
Gethsemane
Faint Resemblance
401 Kill
1000 Good Intentions

Revolutions Per Minute:
Voices Off Camera:
Like The Angel
Black Masks And Gasoline
To The Core

Siren Song Of The Counter Culture:
To Them These Streets Belong
Tip The Scales
Rumors Of My Demise Have Been Exaggerated
Give It All

The Sufferer And The Witness:
Ready To Fall
Roadside
Behind Closed Doors
Worth Dying For

I love the way he sings. The lyrics wouldn't be half as good (and they are EXAFuCKINGLENT!) if he didn't sing them with such passion. As I say, compassion is best served with passion. The only band I've found with that kind of passion, though not always in the voice, sometimes more in the lyrics, is Bad Religion (see Sorrow, Faith Alone, All There Is).

Off of Sufferer and the Witness I like:
Approaching Curve
The Good Left Undone
Ready to fall
Roadside

Off Siren Song and the Counter Culture:
To Them these Streets belong
Dancing for Rain

Off Revolutions Per Minute:
To The Core
Broken English

Off The unraveling:
401 Kill
The Art of Losing
Everchanging
Stained Glass and Marble

i didn't like the last alblum as much as the others. it still kicked way more ass than any other current punk rock record. its just that the songs were kinda bland. no guitar solos, which i adore, and less screaming. "everchanging" and "swing life away" were good slow songs, but "roadside" was lame. and thats just my opinion.

yeah, i'm into bad religion. all there is and sorrow are great songs. its interesting how well bad religion does that background racket with the extra guitarists. so even songs like "sorrow" you can rock out to. and their timing is awesome.

Loved them since i downloaded the sufferer and the witness album, favourite song would probably be roadside, well there's another song i really like but i can't remember the bloody name of it...

tjtech12 · 01-09-2007, 09:12 PM

no offense, but "roadside" sucks, in my opinion

None taken, i don't expect everyone to share the same opinions as me.
