Rise Against’s brand new studio album Endgame is out today via DGC/Interscope records. Endgame is the band’s sixth studio album and already Top 10 on the iTunes Album Chart. First single “Help Is On The Way” is currently #2 at Alternative Rock Radio in the US, which ties the band’s highest ever appearance on the Alternative charts. Endgame has received praise already, including from Alternative Press, who noted in their 4 star review “Rise Against are so important to rock on a large spectrum these days, and it’s a relief that they made an album as strong as their ethics and beliefs.”

The album features twelve new songs by the band, and you can check out the tracklist below.

Rise Against’s fifth studio album Appeal To Reason debuted at #7 on the ARIA album chart and is on its way to becoming gold album in Australia. Following in the footsteps of 2004’s Siren Song of the Counter Culture and 2006’s The Sufferer & The Witness which are both gold albums.

Rise Against will be performing at London’s Electric Ballroom on March 16, which will be streamed live on their website www.RiseAgainst.com around 9:10 UK time, and viewers will be given an opportunity to choose between various viewing angles as the band plays songs from the new album as well as fan favourites.

Saw them outdoors at Fowlers with a mate (I'm not keen on them but just went along for the ride).

Worst concert ever. They were terrible.

I saw them at the BDO last year. They were pretty good. They're not my kind of music though.

Have booked my tickets for the gig in Melbourne seeing as I will be there for a few weeks for Mrs Choccies' 40th celebrations. Look forward to the show after seeing them play the BDO a few years back. Great band :)
