From Johnny Ramone (at number 4) to Lou Reed (at the number 1 spot,) check out the list and see how well they nailed it. I think they did a pretty good job - what about you?

But, I digress.

Rise Against fans will be happy to know that the band has finally announced a title and release date for their upcoming album. Entitled “Appeal to Reason,” and will hit stores October 7th, 2008. This will be the follow-up to their 2006 release “The Sufferer & The Witness.”

Additionally, the band will be headlining a tour this Fall along with Alkaline Trio, Thrice and Gaslight Anthem. I’ll offer more details on that when I have them.

Until then, stay true. I hope all of you had a fantastic weekend!

No title or release date have been set, but I’ll definitely update all of you when I have the information!

Are you excited for the new album? Let me know in the comments.

Due to the enormous amount of comments I received over the weekend (and was unable to get to,) I will be announcing the winner for the Less Than Jake contest TOMORROW. I would feel bad if those comments were unable to be counted, especially considering they DID make the deadline ( I was just super busy and unable to moderate them.)

With that being said, I definitely thank you for your patience and look forward to announcing a winner tomorrow.

Thank you!

Check out the track here and tell me what you think. I enjoy the song (both regular and acoustic versions) and I’d like to know how other BR fans feel, too!

Also, keep in mind there are only three more days until the Less Than Jake contest ends! Since the 6th falls on a Sunday, I will be announcing the winner on Monday so stay tuned to see if you won.

Stay true,
