Rise Against

Rise Against have revealed the video for new single 'Make It Stop (September's Children)'.

The song, written after a string of teenage suicides in the States related to homophobic bullying.

Teaming up with the It Gets Better project, the video is heartfelt and it's clear this is an issue Rise Against had to write about.

Rise Against's front-man Tim McIlrath said: “I decided to create the song as a response, and when I discovered the It Gets Better campaign and [It Gets Better Project co-founder] Dan Savage's commitment to such an important and concise message, I was moved.

I immediately felt that if our song is the road, then the It Gets Better campaign is the destination. I hope the synergy between the two can reach people and make a difference."

The single is released on 5th July. Watch the video and let us know what you think.
