"NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, NO MATTER WHAT IS TAKEN FROM YOU, NO MATTER WHAT TRAGEDY BEFALLS YOU, THERE ARE CERTAIN PARTS OF WHO WE ARE THAT NOBODY CAN TOUCH, NO MATTER WHAT. THOSE ELEMENTS MAKE UP THE TYPE OF PERSON THAT WE ARE, AND ARE SOME OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FOUNDATION PIECES FOR WHO WE WILL BECOME IN OUR LIFE AND THE DIRECTION THAT WE’LL GO. EVEN IF YOU’VE BEEN KICKED DOWN, THAT IS SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN ALWAYS HOLD ON TO NO MATTER WHAT. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE ABLE TO USE THOSE THINGS TO REBUILD BECAUSE THOSE ARE THE FOUNDATIONS FOR WHO YOU ARE"

"I think there is a way to be pissed off but still be hopeful. The stuff that we do, the lyrics that we write and the angle we take, and I mean obviously there are a lot of things that make us very angry and we’ve taken that and channeled it into some sort of positive energy. Our songs are hopefully motivating people to think about different issues, or change or social awareness. It’s just how you channel the anger." — Tim McIlrath 

thanks !

From old setlist’s I’ve seen, they used to end with Six Ways Til’ Sunday… I wish they still did that, it’s a perfect ending song even though Savior as an ending song is brilliant.

Oh boy, Maybe 2004? Right when Siren Song was released. I’d love to have seen State of the Union or 401 Kill live in a small club, any songs from the previous records in a small intimate venue.

This is such a hard question.
