@cooper9419 i swear zach is also in GWAR and is known as Flattus Maxumus.
I only know this because my best mates favourite band is GWAR and we debated cus i heard something about GWAR with Rise Against. Correct me if im wrong?
I havent read the comments below but dont blame the band, blame the audio of the festival, omg!! its terrible, i have seen other rise against live videos and they are really good, just that this time the audio sucks terrible!!!
we all know that chris was better and if you really like him he has started a new band called "the last of the believers" if u like him definitly check them out. there not as good as rise against but there a band worth listening to.
as much of a long time fan ive been, n i do have sum wat of a respect for zach(just because i dont wanna be a dick) but i really think they should give zach the boot, i just really wasnt diggin appeal to reason, but i still bought that album, just because im a hardcore fan, but if i wasnt a fan, i sure as hell would have tossed appeal to reason aside, who else agrees with me?
he said that give it all was a song for the tried and true fans... if they were gonna play a song for all the true fans they should of played torches or gethesamane
Honestly who cares? Just stop fighting over pointless stuff. Chris nor Zach are better than each other. They may play a little differently, but don't go fighting over stuff like that. Also bands are usually not as good as their album. It's live, so get used to it. He may of played messy but it's live, if you were there you wouldn't care. As long as it sounded like it and you we're having fun. I say this from my experience. Thanks for listening to me.
zach may not be the best guitar player, but he puts more heart and energy than chris. If you have heard their other concerts you would know is not bad
if Zack is bad at playing guitar, than hod did rise against record appeal to reason album? watch other songs where he plays in live and everything is ok...Rise against still is my fav band no matter what guitarist they have, they make exelent music and that's all that matters!
Guys get a frikkin' grip! Rise against are an insane band. regardless of who plays gutiar for them they are at least 10 times better at playing than any of you! so shut the hell up!
Your out of your mind. If you've ever seen them live, you know it's not typical of Zach to play sloppy, or like this at all. Guitar on songs like Audience of One, Re-Education, is outstanding, especially live. Bad outting for Tim and Zach, when they played KOQR.
I have seen them live and im not talking about live performances im saying that the guitar parts on AtR just aren't as good as the stuff Chris wrote for SatW or the ones on SSotCC which is by a different guitarist. I dislike the songs with ZB on the guitar.
oh guys you´re so stupid. This silly question whos better, chris or zack... senceless, because zach is playing now, and chris won´t come back. And just because there´s a bad quality you can´t say that chris is the better player... I have seen Zach life, and he´s a good player, and jumps and run on the stage, chris just stand and play....
Listen to rise against shows a few years ago, his voice was awesome, its just that screaming like he does scraps a voice, didn't you notice on the new album his voice is softer, there aint no Grrrr anymroe in it
ARE YOU FUCKEN RETARDED?!?!?!?!?! Brandon is a fucken awesome drummer and you have no freakin idea what you're talking about. gosh, how lame are you? If you want to be interesting say that Zach messes up the guitar sometimes, then I can accept it because it's true... but talkin shit about Bradon, maaaaaaaaaan I;ll kill ya :D
beside the tecnical problem zack had this video the best cuz it reminds me when i saw them live at electric factory in october...brings back memories..i was in front row
Listen to the part at 0:53, he doesn't get the rythm of these chords right and the downward slides with those chords (which lead to the chorus) are sloppy as hell.
Tim said in an interview that they gave him plenty of chances to be a part of the band, and he just didn't put any effort into staying connected with the band.
Love zach's Energy.... But he needs to stand still if it means he's going to play a guitar right... Dancing around isn't the main point - The Music is....
if was i was there possibel chances i would of strated a mosh :D lol cuase this my first song i ever heard when was only like 10 or 11 i ono i forgot but this was my frist song and i would of loved to be there =D i get som much adreline listeing to this song and + it was my frist song i love it so much !! RA will always be my fav band in the world =D
Tim is such a great frontman/rhythm guitarist (when he plays guitar, at least). He's so energetic. And he always "Gives it all" No matter how tired he is. (See what I did there? A quote... Sorta... Like... The song... Give it all... Get it?)
