简介

小简介 Rise Against是一支来自美国芝加哥的硬核朋克乐队，由主唱Tim McIlrath和前88 Fingers Louie乐队的贝斯手乔·普林斯皮（Joe Principe）联合组建。很快，另一位吉他手丹·普莱西仁（Dan Precision）和鼓手布兰登·巴恩斯（Brandon Barnes）就宣布加入了Rise Against乐队。凭借自身实力，Rise Against在不久之后就得到了Fat Wreck Chords公司的一纸合约。2001年8月，Rise Against发行了签约Fat Wreck Chords之后的第一张专辑《The Unraveling》。同年，吉他手Dan Precision宣布离开，Todd Mohney加入Rise Against，代替了Precision的位置。提起Rise Against这个名字，很多人会想起另一个名字：Rage Against the Machine，大家不要搞错了，他们不是一回事。后者应该更加有名一些，但是在2000年就已经解散了，解散后乐队中的三名成员找来了前声音花园Soundgarden的主唱组了一支新的乐队，这就是我们非常熟悉的Audioslave了。说远了，Rise Against上一张专辑中最著名的一首歌Give It All被收录在了摇摇最喜欢的游戏——极品飞车系列的Need For Speed Underground 2的游戏原声里，是一首非常火爆的歌曲。 Rise Against在Todd Mohney之后又换了两任吉他手，分别是Chris Chasse（2004年加入，参与了Siren Song of the Counter Culture以及The Sufferer and the Witness两张专辑，2007年巡演结束后因演出活动影响家庭生活而退出）、Zach Blair（Rise Against的多年好友，在Chris Chasse退出后加入） by Johnny Loftus Chicago's Rise Against began in 1999 when ex-88 Fingers Louie bassist Joe Principe tapped area vocalist Tim McIlrath for a new project rooted in the sound and social vision of traditionalist hardcore. Joined by fellow 88 Fingers vet Dan Precision on guitar and, eventually, drummer Brandon Barnes, Rise Against signed to Fat Wreck and issued The Unraveling in 2001. Precision left the band that same year to be replaced by Todd Mohney. Extensive touring followed, leading to their sophomore outing, 2002's Revolutions Per Minute. After solid response from fans and critics alike, as well as a stint on the Warped Tour, Rise Against left the Fat Wreck fold for DreamWorks/Geffen. By this point, guitar duties were being handled by Chris Chasse (Reach the Sky). Rise Against made their major-label debut in August 2004 with Siren Song of the Counter Culture. They toured steadily after the album's release, received plenty of solid press, and even saw Counter Culture crack the Billboard Top 200. In 2005, Rise Against appeared in the skateboarding film Lords of Dogtown, playing an old-school Cali punk band. (They performed a rousing version of Black Flag's "Nervous Breakdown" for the film's soundtrack.) Rise Against continued to tour throughout that summer, including a spot at the U.K.'s Reading and Leeds festivals in August. Their fourth album, The Sufferer & the Witness, appeared in July 2006 and its debut at number ten on the Billboard Top 200 was their highest yet. The band spent the summer tearing up Warped's main stage before hooking up with Thursday and Billy Talent that fall. Rise Against continued playing shows into 2007, but their extensive tour schedule eventually proved to be too much for Chasse, who bowed out that February. The band solidered on, enlisting Only Crime's Zach Blair to temporarily take his place. (更多)
