Studio Diary Part Two

Posted 6/12/2008 by billypilgrim

We arrived in Fort Collins and immediately got to work on the songs, and in fact, ending up writing a a whole bunch more of them in the first couple weeks. Bill and Jason helped coax the rock out us and, when we were't trying to cover Motorhead songs, we actually got a lot done. Once we finished the structure of songs, Brandon got to work on the drums while the rest of us entertained ourselves around town, which included a night of weirdness with our good buddy Magic Cyclops over at the Surfside, thoroughly enjoyed by all. Wilhelm Scream even rolled through town on their recent tour and we were all able to take a minute out of our schedules to enjoy a BBQ over at Bill's house, at which point many trampoline antics ensued (see the pics to your right for the Zach and Tim's patent double back-flip ).

KFC Canada Victory!

Posted 6/2/2008 by Geffen

Following a five-year campaign by PETA as well as Rise Against fans everywhere, KFC Canada is promising improved welfare for the chickens it buys for its fast-food outlets in exchange for an end to a boycott campaign that will continue in the U.S. and elsewhere. KFC Canads also plans on introducing a vegan "chicken" item on it's menu, which will be many customers first introduction to a meat-free lifestyle.

PETA has asked us to thank RA fans directly, saying; "you guys and your fans have been an essential part of this effort with speaking out against KFC in videos, letting us do the petitions at shows, and so much more."
