Excited for this! Although I wished they had sent a follow-up to radio, preferably "Long Forgotten Sons" or "From Heads Unworthy".
Can this be heard anywhere?

Can't wait for this (almost) Little River Band remake.

Finally new Rise Against for radio to get stuck into. I'm guessing it'll go top 5 (possibly #1) on Alt & top 20 on Active.

Let's hope it actually goes to #1. Their last 5 or 6 singles have each stuck around long enough and garnered enough total airplay that each of them could have gone #1. Alternative radio just needs to consummate their love affair with Rise Against already.
It's even conceivable given the success of "Savior" that this could debut at #1. Probably not, but that would be pretty ironic after all the weeks "Savior" spent on the outside looking in.

Extremely excited. Their last 3 albums have all been really good.

Already started around here somewhere, but this might be the first song from them I can listen all the way through. Your topic was locked, chained, and thrown into the ocean.

I wonder if this will have the longevity of "Savior."

No wonder I couldn't find it. I wonder why it was moved? Just leave it then, this probably already has more posts despite it coming a little later. Decent song!

I don't LOVE the song. I don't think it's quite as strong as their five or six most recent singles, but it may be able to ride the love for those songs to be their first #1 on alternative in spite of that. And like all Rise Against singles, it's fairly likable and well done. And as I'm not a punk guy, Rise Against songs tend to be growers for me. I'm gonna call a #1 on alternative here by mid-February.
EDIT: Listening a 2nd time, I now realize that it really is on the same level as those singles, and that alternative radio needs to make this a #1 very soon to avoid becoming a complete and utter joke. this song also needs to be outside the top 10 by December for the same reasons. Rise Against will probably have a follow-up single by then to save us, so we should be good.

Sounds strong to me. Pretty much treads the same ground as their recent singles. Should hit #1 on Alt.

I'm not as impressed with it as some of their other singles, but since it's still Rise Against, which makes it damn good in my mind anyway.

I think you're breaking rules there by posting that. The site is illegal. The file has actually been removed, anyway.

I guess I'll have to remove it then.

It's not illegal to link to their Myspace. www.myspace.com/riseagainstGood song, but it lacks the punch "Re-Education (Through Labor)" had.

This is pretty good. It should do well on the charts, hopefully topping it.

Top 40 on Alternative:
0 40 RISE AGAINST Help Is On The Way 228 0 228 1.78
This will either block Cage the Elephant from #1 or overtake it after a week or 2.

Top 30 (Top 20 tomorrow) on Alternative:
0 21 RISE AGAINST Help Is On The Way 357 0 357 2.605
19 spots in one day. That's pretty impressive.

Not if it gains only 129 the next two updates. That would put it at only 615 and around #17. Even gains of 228 would put it at only around #14.
