"Nowhere Generation" by Rise Against: 8/10
I've been sitting on this one for whatever stupid reason. I love these guys. Knowing their history in regard to how they tackle current events and social issues with their songwriting, I was curious how they'd approach the four years since their last album. They kick things off strong from the get-go with "The Numbers" and it just snowballs from there. The title track is probably the highlight but there's no shortage of good shit. Their late-2000s stuff is pretty hard to top but this definitely hangs with it. Hopefully I'll be able to make their show here in August.
