The term "victim" also includes, where appropriate, the immediate family or dependants of the direct victim and persons who have suffered harm in intervening to assist victims in distress or to prevent victimization.ģ. A person may be considered a victim, under this Declaration, regardless of whether the perpetrator is identified, apprehended, prosecuted or convicted and regardless of the familial relationship between the perpetrator and the victim. "Victims" means persons who, individually or collectively, have suffered harm, including physical or mental injury, emotional suffering, economic loss or substantial impairment of their fundamental rights, through acts or omissions that are in violation of criminal laws operative within Member States, including those laws proscribing criminal abuse of power.Ģ. The band solidiered on, enlisting Only Crime's Zach Blair to temporarily take his place.1. Rise Against continued playing shows into 2007, but their extensive tour schedule eventually proved to be too much for Chasse, who bowed out that February. The band spent the summer tearing up Warped's main stage before hooking up with Thursday and Billy Talent that fall. Their fourth album, The Sufferer & the Witness, appeared in July 2006 and its debut at number ten on the Billboard Top 200 was their highest yet. (They performed a rousing version of Black Flag's "Nervous Breakdown" for the film's soundtrack.) Rise Against continued to tour throughout that summer, including a spot at the U.K.'s Reading and Leeds festivals in August. In 2005, Rise Against appeared in the skateboarding film Lords of Dogtown, playing an old-school Cali punk band.

They toured steadily after the album's release, received plenty of solid press, and even saw Counter Culture crack the Billboard Top 200.

Rise Against made their major-label debut in August 2004 with Siren Song of the Counter Culture. By this point, guitar duties were being handled by Chris Chasse (Reach the Sky). After solid response from fans and critics alike, as well as a stint on the Warped Tour, Rise Against left the Fat Wreck fold for DreamWorks/Geffen. Extensive touring followed, leading to their sophomore outing, 2002's Revolutions Per Minute. Precision left the band that same year to be replaced by Todd Mohney. Joined by fellow 88 Fingers vet Dan Precision on guitar and, eventually, drummer Brandon Barnes, Rise Against signed to Fat Wreck and issued The Unraveling in 2001.

Chicago's Rise Against began in 1999 when ex-88 Fingers Louie bassist Joe Principe tapped area vocalist Tim McIlrath for a new project rooted in the sound and social vision of traditionalist hardcore.
