They invited fans from the last 25 yea rs to be a part of their creative process as they designed artwork for the ir latest music video releases for “Damage Is Done” and “Ricochet. ”\nFew bands have ever been as accurately named as the Chicago punk quar tet. While fleeting styles and fashionable imitations have entered and exi ted vogue\, Rise Against have remained a north star of artful resistance.
