Rise Against – Nowhere Generation LP Vinyl Record (Transparent Red Coloured Vinyl)

If ever there was a perfect time for a new album from the outspoken, socially-conscious, multi-Gold and Platinum punk rock band Rise Against, it’s right now.  “Nowhere Generation,” is blazing and aggressive, fusing old-school punk attitude with post-hardcore fury.  Lyrically, the eleven songs were influenced by input from the band’s vocalist/lyricist Tim McIlrath’s two young daughters, and the band’s community of fans, and point an enormous spotlight at the social and economic deck that has been stacked against younger generation’s pursuit of The American Dream.  

Recorded at The Blasting Room in Fort Collins, Colorado, “Nowhere Generation” sees the band largely sticking to their well-honed melodic hardcore. That means plenty of galloping bass runs and fast-paced verses, with huge anthemic choruses blooming like mushroom clouds. Rise Against’s goal of riling people up, and making them realise the inequality of the world in which we live in, has been achieved tenfold with this release. If you don’t feel the need to disrupt the norm, rebel against those in power, or generally feel pissed off, after listening to this album, were you really listening?
