"Who is the guy who lurves Rise Against?"

I can't remember which one of you it is, but I just acquired the album, 'Siren song of the counter cult', and bloody hell they're good.

*creams*

*furiously*


I understand why you got a bit of brown on your penis from enjoying their music now.

Story Of The Year.

Rise Against are no Taking Back Sunday, I'll tell you that. TBS remain my fav band!

I thought the opening track was by far the worst, then the rest was okay but not particularly unique or that great.
I'm afraid I find it hard to bum them like Emotime and Paradox.

They sound to me like a band who sound good but aren't actually that good. If you see what I mean. Good as in 'in a year or so you'll get bored'

Everclear are like that, although I do like them a lot. I.e you can't stop listening to them for ages, then suddenly you go 'huh'.

I don't think Siren songs is *THAT* amazing. Opening track (State of the Union?) is by far the bestest, then it's all solid stuff, but not much astounding. Still a very good album. Just not sure about the cream-worthiness of it though.

Saw em at Reading fest, weren't that good, but I think that stage had some sound problems... Anti-Flag also sounded a bit crap. Basically the drums were drowning everything out apart from the vocals for Rise Against and Anti-Flag.

It was fine for Bad Religion, although whether that was because I was near the front and more central I don't know...
