The song is the lead single from its upcoming album
Rise Against returns with news of their most resounding and reinvigorating music to date. Out August 15th on Loma Vista Recordings, Ricochet marks the rock band’s first album in four years. But across these 12 songs, produced by Grammy-winner Catherine Marks (Boygenius, Foals, Manchester Orchestra, St. Vincent) and mixed by Alan Moulder (Nine Inch Nails, Paramore, Queens of the Stone Age, The Killers), Rise Against asks listeners to consider who ultimately benefits from this collective division and displeasure – to look before we leap, to think about the consequences our actions have on each other, as the power structures that prod us remain preserved and protected.
Rooted in unification, Ricochet is a record massive in sound but centered around the small parts of the psyche that lead to the biggest positive change. It all starts with oneself, and on the searing lead single, “I Want It All,” Rise Against rev the engine and jump-start a mission of self-determinism that is ardent, ambitious and unapologetic.
“Ricochet is about our collective inter-connectedness. We started with the title track and that being about how we’re all — whether we like it or not — stuck in the same room, so to speak. Everything you do is going to affect somebody; everything you throw will affect the next person. We’re connected to other countries, other economies; we’re connected to undocumented immigrants. We’re connected to every decision our leaders make. It’s all one big ricochet effect. That idea is the backbone of this album,” the band’s Tim McIlrath shares.
This summer, they are back bigger than ever. Having already performed at LA’s Kia Forum and toured across three continents this year, Rise Against returns to the road hot on the heels of the album announcement, for an impressive European and UK tour and festival headliner run in June, followed by Vans Warped Tour, and dozens of arena and amphitheater shows in the US.
