Chicago punk rock bands Rise Against and Alkaline Trio have released a split single featuring covers of each other’s songs. The release features Rise Against covering Alkaline Trio’s “Private Eye,” while Alkaline Trio records a rendition of Rise Against’s “Re-Education (Through Labor).”
The collaboration comes ahead of an extensive co-headlining tour across the United States. The tour schedule includes a concert stop at The Rooftop at Pier 17 in Manhattan on September 30.
The digital release is accompanied by a limited-edition 7-inch vinyl release available for preorder. The co-headlining tour begins in Dallas on September 22 before traveling to additional cities including Philadelphia, Raleigh, Phoenix, Milwaukee, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, and San Francisco.
Both bands formed in the Chicago music scene and previously performed together at local venues such as the Fireside Bowl. The split single marks a homecoming for the two groups following decades of shared history.
Members Matt Skiba of Alkaline Trio and Tim McIlrath of Rise Against noted that the project reflects their long-standing personal and musical connection. The release serves as a marker of the bands’ shared background as they begin their national tour together.
