[dropcap]R[/dropcap]ise Against are set to release their long awaited new album “The Black Market” via Interscope Records on July 15th. The first single from the album, “I Don’t Wanna Be Here Anymore” will be released on June 10th.
Fans will be excited with this news due to the fact their latest album was released over 3 years ago. “The Black Market” focuses on the cost of self-awareness.
“Rise Against has always been a political band, but also a personal band,” says vocalist Tim McIlrath. “We’ve always had songs that have a foot in both worlds. This album is a lot more introspective to me.”
The intensely melodic strains of the first single, “I Don’t Want To Be Here Anymore” is a case in point – riding a huge chorus and speaking of universal themes of entrapment and escape.
