    I like these guys - really powerful, heavy, melodic songs...

    Only thing I don't like about them is that their drummer seems wimpy live.

    If you like this type of music maybe you listen to Anti-Flag as well

    I'm a big fan of Rise Against from the Revolutions Per Minute album and on... The Unraveling didn't really do it for me.

    I LOVED the Appeal to Reason album, especially the song "From Heads Unworthy".

    Check them out, they are pretty good (but not as good as Rise Against in my opinion)

    Incredible band. Three outstanding albums in a row now. And they're a must-see live act. So much energy.
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense.

    Saw these guys a couple weeks ago at Northerly Island in Chicago....what an awesome venue right on the lake with the skyline in the background. They put on an awesome show....been listening to them non-stop the past couple weeks.

    Love this band especially when I saw them in Baltimore playing that song. A damn good band love everything about them.
