Rise Against have released a new single, ‘Nod’, their first new music since 2022.The new track kicks off the punk band’s “inspired next chapter” and was produced by Catherine Marks. “I swear to God this can’t wait,” vocalist and lyricist Tim McIlrath sings at the top of the song’s chorus. “Not one more minute, one more day.”“Nod is about the solace we find in community,” said McIlrath in a press release. “It’s about the comfort in knowing that we are not alone.

This comfort can temper our anger and our frustration, at least temporarily.”‘Nod’ follows the band’s 2021 album ‘Nowhere Generation’.

It was followed by an EP titled ‘Nowhere Sessions’ which included live versions of songs from the album.Tracks such as ‘Talking To Ourselves’, ‘Broken Dreams, Inc.’ and the LP’s titular single were re-imagined as live recordings, as well as a cut of their 2008 song ‘Savior’ and covers of Misfits‘ ‘Hybrid Moments’ and Creedence Clearwater Revival‘s ‘Fortunate Son’.Check out ‘Nod’ below:the release of ‘Nod’ arrives just before Rise Against head out on a UK and European tour alongside L.S.
