Rise Against Appeal To Reason

On October 7th Rise Against will release Appeal To Reason, the follow up to their breakthrough record, The Sufferer & the Witness which featured the anthemic smashes “Ready To Fall” and “Prayer of the Refugee.” With their new album, Rise Against , returned to their team of producers, Bill Stevenson (NOFX, Evan Dando, Comeback Kid) and Jason Livermore and mixer Chris Lord Alge (Green Day, My Chemical Romance, AFI). The album’s first single is the straightforward, four-chord heavy rocker "Re-Education (Through Labor)," which is currently being previewed at the band’s official MySpace page (www.myspace.com/riseagainst) and for sale at iTunes. "It’s a good way to start off this new record, because I think the album has a lot of progression and something different to offer," says bassist Joe Principe, "and I think that song represents us the best."

Starting today fans who pre-order Appeal To Reason on iTunes will immediately receive the new single, “Re-Education (Through Labor).” The full album will be delivered on October 7th, to those who pre-ordered it, with an exclusive live version of "Prayer Of The Refugee" as well as an additional iTunes exclusive b-side. Those who wait until October 7th to purchase the record will also receive an additional bonus track, the iTunes exclusive B-Side, "Elective Amnesia."
Rise Against will hit the road, in support of Appeal To Reason, this fall and will be joined by fellow Chicagoans, Alkaline Trio, as well as Thrice, and The Gaslight Anthem. Tour dates can be found and tickets can be purchased at www.riseagainst.com/tour.
