I love this band so much, man. Honestly, I’ve lost count of how many tough times in my life I’ve gotten through by throwing on a Rise Against album. It always feels like they’re speaking to me directly through their songs.
Never hit buy on something quicker “Remastered Edition pressed on “Slime Green” color vinyl and housed in a black poly-lined sleeve. Features the Extended Version of “Survive” with Intro for the first time on vinyl.” Also includes but tonight we dance as well
I've been avoiding vinyl purchases to save money this year, but this is a need for my collection. One of my all time favorite records. The extra $11 for shipping is annoying.
Wording makes it seem like the remaster is for the vinyl only to get the extended intro to survive on there. The cd and Apple Music versions have the survive intro but it’s on the end of the good left undone
So they finally came back to my city yesterday. My expectations were kinda low since it wasn't sold out and after not seeing them live for 12 years I wasn't sure if they could still deliver. But MY GOD. It was one of the must fun shows I think I've ever been to! The crowd was WILD and I even crowd surfed for the first time in almost ten years. I lost my friends around half way in but we found each other again in the mosh pit during the last chorus of Savior and started holding our arms around each other and just jumped up and down, haha. I feel battered today but at the same time re-energized. The setlist was pretty boring. I would've loved some of the deep cuts they used to play last year. But still, I had an amazing time.
They are back to a greatest hits set this run. Maybe they go back to a rotating set on their next headline tour which will prolly be next year
The new tour is actually being billed as the ricochet tour. Email/ticketmaster is calling it the ricochet 2026 tour. The current tour isn’t called the ricochet tour anywhere but the merch. I followed them around this past weekend given they are doing rotating sets. saw them 3 days in a row in 3 different cites. Night one: stage ae Pittsburgh Pennsylvania night two: screaming eagle casino and resort mt pleasant Michigan Night three: the sylvee Madison Wisconsin I will also be hitting up multiple dates on the new tour. Locked in to the first Iowa stop and Milwaukee. Might add on the 2nd Iowa stop, st Louis, and Colorado. Colorado is red rocks. It would be so awesome to see my fave band at a bucket list venue
Looked up the setlists and wow! There are some tasty deep cuts being played. Awake Too Long, House on Fire, From Heads Unworthy... Nice to see that they're showing Wolves some love as well. Bring these setlists to Sweden, please!
More rise against shows this year. Just bought tixs to shows 4 and 5 of 2026 and 31 and 32 overall. The Iowa show is their first show in Iowa in 23 years
Nowhere Generation is right there with Endgame and Appeal to Reason as 'best of the rest' after the holy trinity
so happy i caught the 3 shows when i did. rotating sets have stopped. its basically been the same set the last 3 shows
Discography run never disappoints but man do Wolves and Ricochet sound flat compared to the rest. At least with Ricochet it sounds intentional. Wolves has some really good songs but it's so lifeless. I can't imagine anyone thinking that sounds better than the earlier albums, and I don't really understand how that type of mix is "better for radio" or what benefit there is at all.
