 Revolutions Per Minute was released on April 8th, 2003 as Rise Against's 2nd album.

This year is the 10 year anniversary of RPM and we now just have to hope that Rise Against will do a RPM 10th year anniversary tour so we can finally hear them play their punk music in concert!
Let's keep our fingers crossed!!

 This is often one of their most over-looked albums because there are not an specific songs other than "Torches" that you can listen to obsessively. However, the album as a whole is so fantastic. It is not their best album, The Unraveling is, but is still FANTASTIC and worth looking into.
