Rise Against are back, announcing plans to release Ricochet, the band's first album in four years, out on August 15 on Loma Vista Recordings.
The band has released a stream of singles of late, following Nowhere Generation, which came out in 2021.
Tim McIlrath of the band offers a prepared statement about the record:
Ricochet is about our collective inter-connectedness. We started with the title track and that being about how we’re all — whether we like it or not — stuck in the same room, so to speak. Everything you do is going to affect somebody; everything you throw will affect the next person. We’re connected to other countries, other economies; we’re connected to undocumented immigrants. We’re connected to every decision our leaders make. It’s all one big ricochet effect. That idea is the backbone of this album.
