Rise Against are back with new album. This time they offer eleven songs of melodic hardcore punk with smart political and personal lyrics like we are used to from Tim McIlrath and the gang. Songs are epic, energetic, quickly changing pace from fast hardcore influenced more old school oriented song structures to more gentle and atmospheric almost pop punk parts in some of the songs. The Numbers, Nowhere Generation, Talking To Ourselves and Monarch are sure about to win you over if you are not a fan of Rise Against you will be, if you are you will love this one like all other albums from this legendary band. Unfortunately I did not see this band live yet, but would love to, hopefully that happens some time in the near future.
