Rise Against: Endgame
Rise Against for those of you who do not know a bad who truly stand up for what they believe in. for instance they are active members of PETA and are all vegans. The Band plays music in hopes they will reach out to the world. Every song has a meaning for them their hit “Ready to Fall” really spoke about their views on animal cruelty. On March 15 their latest album Endgame was released and what an album! The Album begins with the two singles on the album “Architect” and “Help is on the way” both of which present the Rise Against that any fans knows of the nice riffs on the guitars and the catchy choruses. After we get through listening to those songs forty or fifty times we head right on into the crying children of “Make it stop (September’s Children)” I must say I really have listened to the first two tracks of the album so many times it was hard to listen through it again when I got the album but when I hit track three I was literally hooked on this track after merely one second plays. The entire track is powerful. In this track you will hear Rise Against calling out to the world saying make this suffering end for these children. They tell us to stand with them to help make it stop, and near the end of the track you can hear Tim McIlrath give the names of some of the suffering children. This I must say is easily the most powerful song on the album. Another good Song is “Satellite” the songs will start you off in a nice paced slow guitar then it just takes you off to a very catchy up-tempo Chorus that may even make you want to sing along, but again we see that rise against message. Next we have “Survivor Guilt” This song is mad with power. Right from the beginning Rise Against adds a Catch-22 Skit to their song claiming how much longer does America have to last. Then it heads into the song which is an anti-war song. And what a job they do with it to the sped up riff at the end to the “River like” Guitar interludes. This song really has everything Rise Against is known for this song; I feel closely resembles “Chamber of Cartridge.” The rest of the album is awesome and definitely worth the while to listen to especially if you like activism in music The album itself is a work of art and lives up to what people want to see in rise against. Their album wasn’t their strongest album and it did worry me when I heard that this album was coming out. But then I listened to it and it took my ears away. However I do not think it was their best. While I do think the album was great it does not compare to “The Sufferer and the Witness” But it is overall a great album. So let me break it down now. The lyrics are great and the riffs are good as well. The vocals of Rise Against will never let you down and above all it’s a very powerful piece of work. However it certainly doesn’t live up to its predecessor “The sufferer and the Witness” but definitely worth buying. Ri se Against “Endgame” gets my score of 8.5 out of 10.

Airplanes, Lupe Fiasco Version
Hey! It's A.J.M. with an interesting track for you to hear. I'm sure most of you have heard Airplanes by B.O.B. ft. Hayley Williams, and if you have not... you better check it out! You definitely will want to before you hear the latest version of it with Lupe Fiasco on the track instead of B.O.B.. Don't just take my word for it... I have pasted the link for the song here: http://djblackbillgates.com/2011/04/07/audio-lupe-fiasco-ft-hayley-williams-airplanes-original-version/
I personally think it is good, but B.O.B. just has a certain feel of magic, no pun intended, to it.
