Rise Against announces collaboration with Fat Wreck Chords for “Record Store Day”

Fat Wreck Chords will be doing yet another venture with their old pals Rise Against. They will be releasing a limited edition three song picture disc titled “Join The Ranks” featuring unreleased material. Front man Tim McIlrath said:

“Fat Wreck put us on the map, and “Join The Ranks” was the very first song we ever officially released on a proper label. “Gethsemane” was recorded in an old oil factory in Chicago, the same factory where we would go on to film our first video. Along with “Generation Lost”, this seven inch is long overdue and we’re happy to team up with our old friends at Fat to do it.”

“Join The Ranks” will be available on vinyl April 16th otherwise known as “Record Store Day” which is celebrated every third Saturday of April by all the independently owned record stores. Artists mainstream and independent across the globe come together and celebrate the art of music with live performances, cook outs, and meet and greets for all fans and press.
