Rise Against - S/T

Rise against

My first Rise Against purchase in 6 years arrived today, a limited edition, self-titled 7” - back on FAT. Two songs - and both are fucking good.

I haven’t really got on with much of their stuff since “Revolutions per Minute”, it all started to get a bit samey, but if they were touring in my town next week I would certainly go, in the hope of hearing one of these gems.

The two songs have a sound hearkening back to both old school Rise Against and old school hardcore, and I’ve gone to the effort of recording the Side A track “Grammatizor” for you to listen to. Enjoy the vinyl crackle and the song.

  1. That’s a friggin’ awesome track! I’m shocked that I never heard of this EP before, mind you I try to stay away from records as I can’t play them but I buy them any way!

  2. Yeah I like it a lot. The song on the other side is just as good as this one as well, it was tough deciding which one to use here.

  3. Hi there!
    Really interesting website, it must be a lot of work to update it, but the result is awesome.
    We are far from classic blogs which all look the same.
    And Rise Against is so great, must hear a song at least per day.
    Do you know Berri Txarrak ?  The singer from Rise Against made a song with them : ‘Denak ez du balio’. So good :)
    Wish you a good continuation.
