Rise Against are a political punk band from Chicago who recorded Siren Song of the Counter-Culture with Rage Against the Machine producer GGGarth and Rage and Nirvana mixer Andy Wallace. The four band members came together from punk bands 88 Fingers Louie, Pinhead Circus, and the Enemy, and the emo band Baxter, and play old school punk (e.g., Descendants) with a strong political point of view.Siren Song of the Counter-Culture has drawn rave reviews from key publications. Rolling Stone praised the band's "rousing, intelligent fury," while Alternative Press said "the band's engrossing hardcore is an urgent siren song that's appropriate for these angst-ridden, uncertain times."

Blood To Bleed!!! That songs is one of my favorite ever! Its such a great album, i have both this and the suffer & the witness and i rotate both CD's in my car, i've been listening to both for over 6months now! have not listen to any other albums since! Rise Against just gives you such a energy/adrenaline that makes you wanna scream and get up and jump! This is my favorite band of all time and this is one of 2 best albums you've ever listen from them. If you have either this or suffer & the witness u must have the other!

Awesome CD
rating: 5
The kind of CD you just let play over and over. There's not a song I don't like. Shredding vocals, heavy guitar and meaningful lyrics. Must have for punk fans.

A must buy album!
rating: 5
This album is simply amazing. Rise Against have managed to lay down each type of song in their genre, but still hold true to their own unique sound. With the blistering opener State of Union the unforgiving, take no prisoners attitude of the album is set. Paper Wings is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful songs they've ever written, veering from the more aggressive path (even including an acoustic verse), but still an extraordinary track. Blood to Bleed is another big one, a running bass line powering the fist pumping and shoutworthy lyrics. The first single from the album, Give It All, is truly the most mosh-worthy song of the record. Simple chords open, slowly building up tension for the all out explosive anthem that is Give It All. Swing Life Away, the brow raising acoustic piece, has become a signature of the band. Although it's a completely different kind of song for them, a slow acoustic ballad reminiscent of long summer days spent in good company, it's still a pleasing piece. Every song on this album is amazing in its own right. Even if you've only heard one song from these guys I strongly suggest purchasing this album and giving it a chance. It's an incredible record and won't let you down.
Must listens include Give It All, Dancing For Rain, Paper Wings, Rumors of My Demise Have Been Greatly Exaggerated.

One of the best
rating: 5
This album is very high on my all-time favorites list. Where to start? It is sooo good that I truly believe people are idiots or lying or both if they say they don't like this. Energy, melody and power. Rise Against can do it all. They sing about important things too. How can you not love this band?? Not a single average song...all are great. I listen to a lot of music and these guys are still one of my faves.
