Help Is On The Way - Rise Against

[robcortese]

It's "Right here", not "Right There" but otherwise, lyrics are good. And sweet song!! And are you sure it's "Hold my hand, to mercy"? That just doesn't sound right...

[dodundin]

I believe that if they put this on itunes people would definatly buy it and then earn money when the album comes out... Just seems like a smart business plan to me. RISE AGAINST RULES!

[volumetwoholiday]

Corrections. She stands at the shore line with hands in the air. And it's choking on the

Black gold. In reference to the oil spill

[126Gerry]

Man wieso muss das immer gesperrt werden? -.-

[Yoshidaman07]

AHH! Love this song

[JohnnyDarko01]

This excites me for their new album

[MrColinisabeast]

I LOVE RISE AGAINST!!! Hopefully the new album is as good as appeal to reason and the sufferer and the witness!!!

[Meagarisefan]

@greendarthpotato i know joe isn't the bassist? zach is the bassist? I believe that you're 10 times more capable to try something new when you're the lead guitarist instead of the bassist?

[chicomendes2]

@Meagarisefan wtf u on about?

[RhythmGuitar4Roxy]

Then, they "see cameras in the sky" represents the fact that even though they stowed their aggression and waited for help, all they got was people standing by and watching. The two lyrics as a pair kind of represent the slap in the face that people struggling received for trying to cooperate and wait for assistance.

LOVE THIS FUCKING BAND SO MUCH.

[RhythmGuitar4Roxy]

I think I figured out the "We keep axes in the attics, to see cameras in the sky" part. I think the "axes in the attics" represent the fact that despite receiving little to no help, the people pinned their hopes on the fact that help would arrive, and therefore they didn't get overtly violent or aggressive at first. They stowed their aggression (in the attics, where things are put that you aren't going to be using a while go). (cont in 2nd post).

[lunatik1908]

Can somebody save us *

[Meagarisefan]

This is an absolute mixture of EVERYTHING they've done. Tim found his scream again, he can still maintain is soft voice, their lyrics are informative and great, brandons drums are fantastic, joe tried some new stuff on the guitar, but stuck to the usual aswell, and zach sounds great. It's perfect! <3

[greendarthpotato]

@Meagarisefan That is all true, but u gotta remember that Joe is the bassist. I do think he tried some new stuff though, and the emphasis is on rythym again, which is nice. Appeal to reason was just a little too vocal heavy.

[GamerKT35]

*She stands at the shore line

[Meagarisefan]

I can't even fucking control my excitement for March 15th. This is absolutely fantastic, I feel like a proud mother! (: haha

[RhythmGuitar4Roxy]

Also, I think "The severence is tight" is supposed to be "The surface is dying" in response to the oil slick that covered the surface of the Gulf. ("The pile is burning" kind of leads into this as well, the "pile" being the destroyed and burning oil platform).

[LvRezery]

sounds like rapist is on the way.

[RhythmGuitar4Roxy]

"She stands at the shoreline

With hands in the air

Her world's cast in dark light

Does anyone care?"

I think that fits a little better? Maybe?

[qazqaz08qazqaz]

Fucking love this song! Cant wait to hear the rest of them<33

Rock on Rise Against!

-Denmark

[NaRToTiK2]

i think in the part of the scream he is saying Right here and not right there:)

[robcortese]

Two people accidently hit the "dislike". If they did it on purpose, they must either be from another band, they are BP owners, or their parents are BP owners....

[robcortese]

[greendarthpotato]

In the verses, "And all along THEY say it"

Also in the first verse, its "watch giants" not lions

Sounds like "mercy" not "help see" in the chorus

[thisissparta91]

GREAT SONG!!!!!! love RA XD i dunno if someone have already write this , but at the beginning Tim say " Can NOBODY...." and not anyone...

[RobotKiller212]

I have this song in my iPod already, but I prefer to listen to it here because I love reliving the few moments before it was premiered on KROQ.

[25thetony]

@RobotKiller212

Howd you get it on your iPod?

[juanje99]

@25thetony Torrent is already out, and before you criticize me, I've had 2 copies of this album reserved for the last month and a half. Always support the artists.

[25thetony]

it be nice to just have an automatic replay button for this song.

[SkairKro13]

@25thetony Ya know ya can just add this to your queue and it will repeat til ya decide its enough? Thats how I do it lol

[MrHitmanGr]

@25thetony just put the word repeat between youtube and (dot)com

[5djsteph5]

amazing :D

[Raunoland]

FKING AWESOMENESSSSSS

[kroon007]

this song is amazing!

[SpecOpschamp]

Best debut in Kroq this year.

[lortganja]

cant wait to see them live in cologne on the 23.3. (us: 3.23)

[JackdieBohne]

damn this song kicks ass. cant wait for the album and upcoming tour!!!

[MrHitmanGr]

awesome song!!!i'm anticipating for the new album to come out on March 15th:)))

P.s i broke the repeat button

[Milesz0rz]

Love it, can't wait for new album, just 55 days left :)

[Fokko101]

AWESOME!!!!

[SufferingInsomnia]

Damn, you work fast! Thanks so much for this! Plus that album cover is incredible

[pesfan0180]

The chorus sound very much like Hairline Fracture.

Anyway, when I hear this song I know for sure that the new album will be awesome!

[JAk8836]

@pesfan0180 You know, it even sorta sounds like Matt Skiba is in the backing vocals like he was in Hairline Fracture, if you listen for him!

[dannymin]

@greenguy

If that's ur point of view then everyband has sold out slipknot greenday blink182 korn etc as they have all changed music styles down the years buy the quality is still there from rise against and always has been!! The new album will b class if this song is anything to go by so I don't think u really know what u are saying and everyband that makes money has sold out otherwise they would play everything for free and not want to be big and famous so get it up yi

[jsh020]

@dannymin yah theres a large diffference between changing your style and selling out. honestly if a band goes a whole decade without changing their style then their just a shitty band rehashing the same ol crap for money. aka THEIR THE FUKING SELL OTUS

[RiseAgainstRIOT]

I hear "chocking on the black GOLD" not blackout, but everyone seems ot hear blackout.

[jvv93]

@RiseAgainstRIOT Sounds more like black gold indeed, would make more sense too imo.

[sabresfan331]

Great song!!!!! Can't wait till march 15th!!!

[TheShaeber]

Tim has found his scream again! (ok he screamed in the rise ep too)

And the lyrics are awsuum

[joelwatkins]

1 person prefers Megadeth's Endgame to this :P

[scumbucket666]

better then the last one wonder what the rest is gonna sound like

[fooLOLxD]

love 2:15 guitar solo  oohh! and 2:28

[killingyou321]

eargasm 0:11-4:05

[chas3r101]

2:15 thats what i missed on appeal to reason :)

[greenguy1313]

Rise Against has been going downhill. :P

and I like how probably 90% of people commentating "FUCK YEAH NEW ALBUM WOOOO!!" only know of Rise Against because of Appeal to Reason or The Sufferer and the Witness.

Smh..

[AlteredOutcast]

@greenguy1313 All a matter of opinion bro. I've been listening to RA since Revolutions Per Minute, and while there newer music is different, it's not worse. I listen to RA not only for their instrumentals, but for the message and meaning they put out in their songs, that's the biggest thing that stands out in RA. No band can beat their message and song meanings. This song has just as much meaning as all their other songs, and I hardly call that selling out.

[fenderboyshris]

@greenguy1313

and? even if they do they're both amazing albums in their own right.

[Kalaklukko]

@greenguy1313 I started listening just before the release of Siren Song of the Counter Culture.

Your point is invalid.

[SkairKro13]

@greenguy1313 Ill admit I started with The Sufferer and the Witness (awesome album name btw) around 4 years ago but I have all the albums and its currently a tie between The Sufferer and the Witness and The Unraveling so your point = invalid.

[juanje99]

@greenguy1313 You are entitled to your opinion and others to theirs. I've been a Rise against fan since their first album and yet I love everything they have done. That's what true fans do.

[Imruf]

anyone know data of ENDGAME?!

[LvRezery]

rise against's albums are only that I buy becuz they are worth it.

[EverettEliz]

I like Rise Against and this song is decent, it would never be one of my favourites though.

[sickdic]

anything rise against is fuckin so good! they rock!!! cant wait to hear more!!!!!

[eragonandsaphira]

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bonermel]

FUCKING UBER 13 maart tilburg!!!!!!!! kut dat dan het album nog niet officieel uit is!

RISE AGAINST TO THE BONE

[tostabrota]

Geil

[buckeye91011]

I was really excited for this song, but after hearing more about their next single "Architects", I'm much more excited for that song. Tim talked later in this interview about how the song talks about people like Martin Luther King who shaped the world like they wanted, and if our society is built raising architects or not.

[thecommonbehavior]

Okay those people who don't like it don't comment because obviously you don't like rise against. I believe in this song they still proved they can be hardcore but that they like their new sound. Plus I feel it's more about the lyrics. Go home sip some coffee and listen to how inspiring and well thought out their lyrics are then comeback and tell me they suck mmmk??

[bowlama7]

that was fast

[BoneDaddy093]

This is a fantastic song. I like the different feel. I can't wait to hear what they have done for the rest of the album!

[GreedsCreed]

lol i dont know what wrong with people these days, i liked their last album. If it was all the same i would have stopped listening a long time a go

[marietremblay11]

not as hardcore but still just as amazing, i can't wait for their album !

[ihoffmann88]

this is amazing, i have never been this pumped for an album before. fuck yes

[ITZWILLIS]

i think rise against are the only band that haven't produced a terrible song in their whole career. they truly are pro

[ITZWILLIS]

i think rise against are the only band that haven't produced a terrible song in their whole career. they truly are pro

[Kalaklukko]

Holy. Fuck.

This is a bit more like Siren Song and Sufferer and the Witness mixed with Appeal to Reason. FUCK YES!

[GodBlessTonyDanza]

Where's the passion?

Sigh...this might end up being more disappointing than Appeal to Reason

[ITZWILLIS]

@GodBlessTonyDanza dude its off the radio it sounds way better on their myspace

[GodBlessTonyDanza]

@ITZWILLIS

It has nothing to do with the quality of the stream. More like the quality of the song....which is lacking

This crap is a b-side for Appeal to Reason.

[Unraveling702]

@GodBlessTonyDanza just STFU rise against isnt a band like AC/DC where every fucking album sounds the same as the last.they mix it up a bit. and everytime they do they make it better. if you dont understand music, dont talk shit about it.

[GodBlessTonyDanza]

@Unraveling702

Yeah...Rise Against is really "mixing it up" ala Bloc Party. LOL

And, if anything, Rise Against have gotten weaker by each album.

Sufferer was a step up after the weak misfire of Siren Songs. However, they managed to outdo themselves with the utter turd of Appeal to Reason.

With how underwhelming this song is, give me a reason why I should feel any different?

You can be constructive without being a total fanboy

[SpecOpschamp]

@GodBlessTonyDanza Look I can understand you not liking their new stuff, I personally still like their old stuff better but I love their new stuff too, but that doesn't give you the right to troll and hate on Rise Against. Do you really have to be an asshole?

[ctpaintball4life]

@GodBlessTonyDanza Kill yourself.

[GodBlessTonyDanza]

@ctpaintball4life

If this song is any indication of being just as bad as the last record, I just might.

[gronkierw]

@GodBlessTonyDanza

gone are the days of hardcore rise against. just move on

[DatGuy3638]

@GodBlessTonyDanza I personally can't really recall a song where Tim doesn't sing with everything he has. He seems to truly believe the words he sings.

[Cantfindme12]

when is this going to iTunes???

[Swedishfish2142]

Help better be on the way, cuz my head is about to explode from the Awesomeness Overload

[Unraveling702]

they never dissapoint :D

[juanje99]

<3<3<3<3 I just had the worst day in a while. This made anything bad in my world, completely vanish.

[phatmuffinman1]

Badass

[awesomegamer6190]

O.O my head just exploded. Rise Against truly is AWESOME!!!

[sharpshooterofdascop]

No honors for this video yet huh, well i know there is, because it has Rise Against in it.

[riseagainstneverdie]

i can't wait for this album! :D

[xXxKaReNxXx2020]

I love this song already! Can't wait for the album to come out! :D

[josho46]

Help is on the way....so is the new Rise against album!!

[nintendoman243]

Possibly the best album, assuming they are all as bad ass as this.

[TheOvercome101]

:D

[Pm4nz]

Love this song!!

[brianrocks1231]

this is just too good to be true. i love these guys so much and ive only heard of them just recently. i cannot wait for this new album. ive yet to hear something bad come from them!

[DeadlyKeith]

amazing already <3 how can you not love rise against?

[clara3353]

Rise Against cannot do wrong I have yet to hear a song I dislike, Please Tim never stop. You and the rest of the real musicians are a dying breed and we need you now more than ever. For the love of god never stop.

[ShockDoctor1000]

HOLY CRAP i have been waiting soooooooooooooo long for this :D:D:D:D:D

[Swedishfish2142]

I'm not gonna say anything but Godly

[dIxXxIb]

no words.

[NightXemnas]

Awesome, sounds like Sufferer mixed with Appeal. The right step forward. Appeal was a bit too soft for me, but still decent. Sounds very promising!

[FleaRHCP36]

Holy shit. I think iv pressed the repeat button at least 20x alredy. March seems so far....

[magicjj7]

Fuckin' A

[traxxas777]

who else cant wait to hear the rest of the album?? Rise Against all the way!!!!!

[nowaska]

@traxxas777 ME!

[aar6947]

Feb they will come to Brasil... It will be awesome!!!

[iTrollz4dalulz]

March is going to be such a FUCKING AWESOME month!

College acceptance letters and new Yellowcard and RISE AGAINST ALBUMS!!

[SCCrusaders]

[Vide0sPlz]

My new favorite Rise Against song...and not because it's brand new and I'm excited as hell for the album, but because it's just plain awesome!!!

[becky221]

[xAznRaynex]
