Rise Against
Chicago's Rise Against have spent over two decades as punk rock's most commercially successful and politically engaged act of the 21st century, with Tim McIlrath's impassioned vocals and the band's blistering melodic hardcore fueling anthems of social justice and personal conviction. Albums like 'The Sufferer & the Witness' and 'Appeal to Reason' achieved multi-platinum success while maintaining the band's punk credibility and DIY ethos. Their commitment to activism on issues from animal rights to environmentalism, paired with arena-filling melodic punk, makes Rise Against a rare band that has scaled mainstream heights without abandoning their principles.
