Siren Song of the Counter Culture

Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Rise Against are a political punk band from Chicago who recorded Siren Song of the Counter-Culture with Rage Against the Machine producer GGGarth and Rage and Nirvana mixer Andy Wallace. The four band members came together from punk bands 88 Fingers Louie, Pinhead Circus, and the Enemy, and the emo band Baxter, and play old school punk (e.g., Descendants) with a strong political point of view.

Siren Song of the Counter-Culture has drawn rave reviews from key publications. Rolling Stone praised the band's "rousing, intelligent fury," while Alternative Press said "the band's engrossing hardcore is an urgent siren song that's appropriate for these angst-ridden, uncertain times."

5 out of 5 stars pick it up........2007-07-25

i really enjoy this cd. its been a while since i bought a new punk cd. it enjoys some of melody elements of afi. it has less of the recent clean punk sound that can be heard on mtv. this still has some good aggressive singing with good points calm....
enjoy.

4 out of 5 stars Hit Machines.......2007-06-08

Rise Against is such a versatile band. This CD alone has 3 hit songs on it, each being completely different from the next.

5 out of 5 stars SIREN SONG OF THE COUNTER CULTURE - CD ALBUM.......2007-05-13

LATELY I BOUGHT THIS ALBUM OF RISE AGAINST. THE SERVICE OF AMAZON WAS AMAZING AND VERY QUICK, EVEN SAFE IN HANDLING THE CD. THE ALBUM IS JUST FABULOUS! I HEARD IT MILLIONS OF TIMES, BUT THE SONGS ARE FANTASTIC EVERY TIME I HEAR THEM! GOOD JOB!

4 out of 5 stars Very good album.......2007-05-10

This is a really good CD to get if you are into the whole pop-emo thing. I wouldn't label this as punk (like Sex Pistols or Misfits) because it's more melodic. It's more along the lines of New Found Glory or maybe Pennywise or Bad Religion. It's probably realitively easy to find an mp3 for "Life Less Frightening", which is in my opinion the best song off the CD. If you like the aforementioned bands, then definitely get this, as you won't be disappointed.

4 out of 5 stars Pretty good.......2007-01-10

this cd is pretty good, some really good songs from them thats for sure. if you like hard music you'll enjoy. Swing away is a nice song from them, something new and freash
