For me it's probably "Behind Closed Doors", don't really know why, just always liked it. Honourable mention is "State of the Union" for rewiring my 8 year old brain when I first heard it.

I honestly credit this band for turning me into a leftist.

Me too. I love the sufferer and the witness. It's probably my favorite album of all time

Siren Song of a Counter Culture is fantastic cover to cover, definitely my favorite album. But all there stuff is honestly amazing.

Behind Closed Doors is my favourite too

Swing life away. Weak pick, but I associate it with a very specific time in my life. Favourite rise against song that actually sounds like a rise against song: paper wings.

Paper Wings is a good pick, it might be my favorite or very close too.

Re-education Through Labor

Torches and dead ringer from revolutions per minute are solid and I highly recommend both.

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It's hard for me to choose just one song, but it'd definitely be something off of Revolutions Per Minute or Siren Song of the Counter Culture.

You don't like sufferer and the witness?

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 2 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I do, but those two albums are my favorites.

[–] FearsomeJoeandmac@hexbear.net 2 points 5 months ago

Sufferer and Siren song are my top two.. rpm is third.

Those three albums were rise against at their best

I still hope I can tell Tim thank you someday. His band is what got me into leftism, and now I'm probably even more radical than he is himself. (He'd probably be happy about that thb)

They some sorta hip-hop-style kids?
