I'm not, normally, a huge modern rock fan. But, lately I've found myself engrossed in Rise Against, not just for some catchy tunes, but also for some meaningful lyrics.
Anyway, one song struck me, and the video was just as powerful, and that is the song "Hero of War". Now this song has been out for almost a full year now, but I still find it great to listen to, and very moving.
An Iraq protest song not just aimed at the war's purposes and the reason we were sent there, but in which the way it has been and still somewhat continues to be carried out.
The song, to me is quite powerful in it's purpose, and the video can really move you.
I suggest giving it a listen to.If you have not yet done so.
