		Tim's voice comes in screaming opening with the words If we're the flagship of peace and prosperity, not my favorite song off the album but still a good one, I like it mainly because of the lyrics, which are very political.
		Tim sings instead of screaming, and is followed by nice backing vocals of bassit Joe Principe and guitarist Chris Chasse.
		Tim later comes in singing, while the guitar stops and picks up again a few seconds later.

		When Rise Against frontman Tim McIlrath was 16 or so, his parents suggested he take some guitar lessons from a local music teacher.
		As far as McIlrath was concerned, he had unlocked the secrets of the universe.
		McIlrath and the rest of Rise Against (bassist Joe Principe, guitarist Chris Chasse and drummer Brandon Barnes) are touring in support of their latest album, The Sufferer and the Witness, to what can only be described as an increasingly rabid fan base.

		Tim's voice has to be one of the greatest voices in punk.
		Tim's lyrics basically speak of the world having fallen down, and everyone waiting for someone to come and lift them out of their misery.
		Tim's performance is consistent with every other song on the album.

		McIlrath admits some of his favorite bands are Chicago indie rock (Shellac, Tortoise), but with his band, he wanted to recreate "those crazy, sweaty shows where you walk away, and your clothes were just in shreds."
		And it is the band, not just McIlrath: In the July 2004 issue of AP, all four members of Rise Against wore PETA shirts in a photo for a story about their work with the animal-rights group.
		McIlrath joined Anti-Flag's No. 2, Wayne Kramer of the MC5 and Billy Gould (bassist of Faith No More) at the Iowa Caucuses earlier this year as ambassadors of Punkvoter.

	// ALTERNATIVE PRESS MAGAZINE \\
		AP had the distinct pleasure of talking with Rise Against frontman Tim McIlrath earlier today about the recording of his band's new album, but quickly found out some other interesting tidbits: The Chicago-based political hardcore band have recorded both Lifetime and Sick Of It All covers for their respective tribute CDs.
		There are currently no other bands announced for the project, although Canadian screamo act Silverstein informed AP last November that they recently recorded their cover of "Rodeo Clown" for a currently unnamed future project.
		McIlrath also tipped AP off to a Sick Of It All tribute scheduled to come out via SOIA's new label, Abacus Recordings.

		The lyrics are exactly what you'd expect from the remarkable Tim McIlrath: extremely expressive, poetic and soaked with detail and emotion, covering topics ranging from politics to religion to saving the environment.
		Tim's vocals are melodic and deep, and even the spoken parts grip your emotions and send them on the ride of their life.
		Tim McIlrath has the astounding ability to sing and scream with such emotion and sincerity, that if you listen and focus on his intensity, it may possibly bring you to tears.

		"The tour is this community of 600 people who are all on the road together, who are all sharing buses and bathrooms and showers and meals," McIlrath said on the way to Milwaukee.
		McIlrath says Rise Against's interest is more global: the AIDS epidemic in Africa.

		Tim: Well obviously there are different bands, but a lot of it’s the same too, a lot of great punk rock bands out here.
		Tim: That’s exactly what it is. As a band we encourage people to make up their own mind about what’s going on.
		Tim: So many different things inspire me. One day I’ll see a band that I’ve never heard of and be like “Wow, that band’s awesome.” And they’ll inspire me. I think the one steady inspiration for me is our fans.

	Reviews
		This release comes soon after the Chicago punk band Rise Against released their new album "Revolutions Per Minute” This is significant because the bands share the same vocalist in Tim Mcilrath.
		Tim's vocals are one of the highlights of both bands and it remains to be seen which band will receive the most attention from him.
		Tim's vocals do add a hardcore element but the thing I like about his voice is that he has a sort of scratchy, emotional voice reminiscent of famous Seattle alternative bands.

	Article - Entertainment - Rise Against inspire, Thursday struggle at Irvine gig
		RISE AGAINST: Lead singer Tim McIlrath performs with his band "Rise Against" at the Bren Events Center in Irvine on Saturday.
		With McIlrath at the helm, the outfit began crafting melodic punk and hardcore with socially charged lyrics and themes.
		McIlrath flexed his politically charged songwriting muscle on cuts like “State of the Union,” “Blood-Red, White and Blue” and set closer “Prayer of the Refugee.”

	Oracle Online: Rise Against turns over new leaf
		This is quite a fitting name for a band that led the charge to oust George W. Bush from office during the 2004 election in cooperation with Punk Voter, an interest group founded by Fat Mike of former label Fat Wreck Chords to engage the youth vote.
		Divorcing politics from music is impossible with this foursome, as vocalist Tim McIlrath said in a November interview.
		McIlrath’s lyrics are complemented nicely by his unique hushed-to-yelling voice, leading the listener to feel emotional strain and empathy in every line.

	West 49 Canadian Open Battle of the Brands
		McIlrath notes that collaborating with Stevenson and Livermore — both of whom are also extraordinary drummers — helped to enhance and develop Barnes’ sound and bring it to a whole new level on this record.
		Tugging at its hardcore roots, "Survive" shatters the tempo barrier with its tight riffing, while "Bricks" is a minute-and-a-half burst of double-timed, mosh pit inducing fury, primarily penned by Principe.
		However, while in the studio with Stevenson during pre-production, McIlrath picked up a guitar and played the song.

		There are so many bands that sing about negative things, and we kind of wanted to use this to show people it's OK to voice your opinions and stay positive.
		Founded in late 1999 by Principe and McIlrath, Rise Against rose from the ashes of Principe's former band, 88 Fingers Louie.
		After Rise Against hits this summer's Warped Tour, the act hopes to tour South Africa later this year, in an effort to spread the word of the AIDS epidemic and unfair trade laws through their performances.

		Rise Against is, from left, Brandon Barnes, Tim McIlrath, Joe Principe and Chris Chasic - all suckers for melody in punk guises.
		Books have always played a big role in lead singer/lyricist Tim McIlrath's life, just as big a role as punk rock.
		McIlrath took a disturbing short story he was writing about a breakup (and possible murder-suicide) and read his notes during the verses, singing in the choruses.

	Rise Against \| The Onion - America's Finest News Source
		"The Approaching Curve" is a story-song similar to At The Drive-In's "Invalid Litter Dept.," with vocalist-guitarist Tim McIlrath talking through verses and singing in the choruses.
		The biggest stylistic deviation arrives later with "Roadside," where a quiet, undistorted guitar and strings accompany McIlrath's contemplative vocals.
		The dramatic shift in sound suits Rise Against well; McIlrath has spent his career melodically shouting, not so much singing, but he obviously has some vocal versatility.

		Lead singer Tim McIlrath joined bassist Joe Principe early on, and guitarist Chris Casse became their latest addition just before Siren Song.
		And the listener should remember that the lyrics are still conceived from a wounded standpoint—these guys are definitely still calling themselves outsiders, even with their commercial success.
		McIlrath doesn’t wait long to go on the offensive, blasting out of the gate in “Chamber the Cartridge,” condemning a blinded society for ignoring the social injustices that surround us.

		I told Tim and Joe about this for the first time last week, and we all laughed.

	Campus Circle
		From the moment singer/songwriter Tim McIlrath belted his first chords nearly six years ago, itâs been a loud and clear warning that Rise Against is a band not to be ignored.
		As the band came together in a Chicago basement at the end of 1999 â“ McIlrath, bassist Joe Principe, original guitarist Dan Precision and drummer Brandon Barnes â“ Rise Against always had a clear vision of what they wanted to do musically.
		Not only did they want to bring back a style of hardcore music that seemed to be lacking in the Chicago punk scene, but they also sought to make music that would cause people to stop and think.

	"Siren Song of the Counter Culture," Rise Against
		The latest release from Rise Against is driven by a locomotive of punk fury pulling boxcars full of finger-pointing lyrics down the railroad tracks of social and political consciousness -- slowing only once to let a love-hobo hop on for the tender ballad "Swing Life Away."
		On this, Rise Against's third album, Tim McIlrath proves he's equally capable of singing and screaming, without sacrificing clarity or losing force.
		McIlrath's potent vocals bring a level of sincerity to the verse and increase the ferocity of the music without making it sound weepy or depressing.
