(review) Rise Against – Nowhere Generation II

Rise Against decided to surprise us with their brand new e.p. containing songs that were actually recorded in the same session as previous full length album Nowhere Generation, So, these five songs continue where the last album stopped, delivering blistering melodic hardcore with politically charged lyrics that are somehow also personal and talking to each and every one of us. Last Man Standing and This Time Is Personal are somehow my personal favorites with Tim´s vocals being trademark that you recognize anytime you awake in the middle of the night. This band just can´t disappoint with their music. Unfortunately I have never witnessed them deliver their mighty set live, but I plan to correct that mistake one day. Great surprise by great band.
