Rise Against

Rise Against is a Chicago punk band that built its name on melodic hardcore with a political streak, songs about protest, empathy, and pushing back against authority wrapped in fast tempos and gang vocals. Albums like "Siren Song of the Counter Culture" and "Appeal to Reason" carried them from punk clubs to festival stages without losing the edge.

They've got a Colorado date coming up at Red Rocks, a venue that suits a band built for big choruses and bigger crowds shouting them back.
