They must be doing something right if they're pissing off people on the internet to the point where they write long essays about their hatred for Rise Against.

Also,

"Hey! I think Band X is great!"
"LIES! Band W is much better, Band X is shit!"
"Fuck you, Band Z is the best!"
"Hey, my opinion is fact!"
"NO IT'S NOT, my opinion is fact. Face it guys, Band W is mathematically proven to be the best. THAT'S RIGHT FUCKERS, MY OPINION IS FACT."

I'm also gaining a University education, leading an active social life and indulging in various hobbies- one of which is flamebaiting Forums.

Video game tournaments, if you'd have checked the games stated in the profile you would know that I clearly haven't played in one for a while, at least 6 months . Nice job on the background research though man, that made your comment so much more well informed!

,lol, I locve this tghread.

No, RA is not the end-all-be-all of lyric masters, but they're better than most of the shit that's out there today. Go ahead and prove me wrong on that.

They're stuff is pretty good, and if you can relate in the least the music is just that much better. Just like half of you likely hate Linkin Park, but if Mike did most of the singing I bet most of you would change your minds. It's just an acquired taste in a sense, and you either like that kind of music or you don't.

At least make a thread for the self-deserving Envy/Thursday split, or the latest Raein LP.

Jeesh.

Well, this album has truly shown it deserves its own thread to me. I've listened to it a couple times, and damn, it is a good album.

Hero of War is easily the best song of the album. The lyrics are amazing, as usual. Rise Against is the easily the best band out there lyric-wise; all of their songs have so much depth and opinion stuck in them that...argh. Can't think of any other word except amazing.

Give it a listen.

I agree Appeal to Reason is an excellent album from a band that rocks pretty hard. High five

15 more years! 15 more years!

Whoever said RA had 'the best lyrics' couldn't be more wrong. If you're looking for a brilliant lyricist within the genre, the only real answer is Greg Graffin of Bad Religion.

"Don't Pray On Me"

A grizzly scene on my electron beam
Told a story about human rights
So all of King's horses and all of King's men
Had a riot for two days and nights
Well, the city exploded but the gates wouldn't open
So the company asked him to quit
Now everybody's equal
Just don't measure it

Well, Hanson did it to Hester
And Mark David did it to John
And maybe Jack did it to Marilyn
But he did it to South Vietnam
For beauty and glory
For money, love, and country
Now everybody's doing it
Don't do that to me

A bitter debate and a feminine fate
Lie in tandem like two precious babes
While the former gets warmer, it's the latter that matters
Except on the nation's airwaves
And custodians of public opinion stayed back
After vainly discussing her rights
Lay hands off her body
It's not your fucking life

Now I don't know what stopped Jesus Christ
From turning every hungry stone into bread
And I don't remember hearing how Moses reacted
When the innocent first born sons lay dead
Well, I guess God was a lot more demonstrative
Back when he flamboyantly parted the sea
Now everybody's praying
Don't pray on me

"Ah, you miserable creatures! You who think that you are so great! You who judge humanity to be so small! You who wish to reform everything! Why don't you reform yourselves? That task would be sufficient enough."

Depends on how far back you want to go. They've been around since 1980 so there's a lot of stuff they've done and a lot of different sounds along the way.

The older stuff is garagey like this:

Then there is this from Recipe for Hate:

This is from Process of Belief:

This is from The Empire Strikes First:

This is from New Maps of Hell

I like them all so...
