Chicago-based band Rise Against return to the UK with a one off gig on May 12th at the London Astoria.
Their critically acclaimed album The Sufferer & The Witness was a confident step forward that saw Rise Against grow into their role as one of the leaders of the post-punk pack. The new album was described by Kerrang as "both gut-wrenching and life-affirming" (4Ks) and Metal Hammer hailed it as a "benchmark album" (8/10).
The Sufferer & The Witness is the follow up to 2004's Siren Song Of The Counter Culture, the band's first album through Geffen Records and their third since forming.
To coincide with their tour the band will be releasing their new single 'Prayer Of the Refugee' as a download on 14th May. To catch a glimpse of their hard hitting new video just click here:
