  • Rise Against's The Unraveling seems to be a bit of a change for Fat Wreck Chords. Oh, it's still punk (surprisingly, it was recorded by Mass Giorgini), it's just a lot more aggressive and not nearly as cheesy as many of the label's acts. This album is not poppy, and there's no juvenile humor; Rise Against is a pretty tough band and The Unraveling shows that aspect. The vocals have a good deal of melody and range, yet can break into screaming at any moment, as many of the tracks show. Songs like "Everchanging" show the possibilities that the Chicago quartet is capable of. The lyrics are mature and thoughtful, dealing with friendships and relationships, religion and memories. Similar comparisons could be made to Whippersnapper and Grey Area, yet there are certain ways The Unraveling stands out on its own, primarily in its use of melody in the vocals. While Whippersnapper's vocals are more metal and Grey Area's punk, Rise Against is melodic hardcore. Showing that they're not too far from their roots in 88 Fingers Louie, the punk energy is pure and unadulterated here. If there were ever an album to help bring back the finger pointing and circle pits, The Unraveling might be a good bet. ~ Kurt Morris

3.0 out of 5 based on 5 reviews. 3 of 5 Stars! – Customer review on 12/01/2011

The Chicago melodic hardcore bands first album, The Unravelling lacks the versatility of Rise Against's more recent albums. It's not as easy to listen to as their later albums but still well worth a listen especially if you have an appreciation for their messier music. The lyrics are also not as impressive as their later albums but still quite good.

Don't put it into your CD drive expecting it to become your favourite Rise Against album and you should enjoy it.

This a really great cd from rise against and i can highly reccomend it if you are a fan of punk. It isnt my favourite album from the band, but a close second behind rise againsts "siren songs of the counter culture" rise against can always be relied on to offer a variety of songs on all there cds, the unraveling is a great cd to have.

Rise Against are awesome and this is their first great album. look out for "alive and well" and "1000 good intentions" those songs are great, awesome hardcore punk songs that you can really sing along to. Rise against have so much power and energy in their sound, you have to buy the album and find out for yourself, otherwise you will be missing out!
