    The first single from 'Endgame' has been released, it is called 'Help Is On The Way'.
    I love it!
    What are your thoughts?

    I wasn't really feelin it this time. I hope the rest of the album is impressive though.

    There's one that hasn't been taken down at the moment.

    I don't really care for the song though.

    Meh. I don't dislike it I guess. Perhaps it'll grow on me.

    It reminds me too much of Hairline Fracture from Appeal To Reason.

    I haven't heard their entire officially released discography, just a few catchy tunes I got into, but this sounds so much like what I heard; I'm unimpressed by a band that doesn't grow and evolve their sounds even a little.

    They've evolved quite a bit from Revolutions Per Minute to Appeal To Reason actually.

    I meant it's the same octave leads over non-power chord rhythm parts in every song. It's not even a signature Rise Against sound - it's just overly cliche and generic. I think any and every band can experiment while still retaining their sound, as in their fans can listen to them and still say that's them.

    Yeah, with this particular song you're right. I just hope the rest of the album isn't as dull as this song.

    That may be why it's the first single. They're going for overall catchiness.

    I'm a big fan but this song blows.

    I really liked Appeal to Reason though, was surprised when a lot of other fans weren't too into it.

    i liked their last last album a lot more than most people did, but the band are sadly losing their touch.
