Animal Rights

"Rise Against is an American punk/melodic hardcore band from Chicago, Illinois, which was formed in 1999. Many themes in its songs relate to social commentary. It currently consists of four members, Tim McIlrath (vocals, guitar), Joe Principe (bass guitar), Brandon Barnes (drums), and Zach Blair (guitar).
The band is all vegetarian and active with the animal rights group PETA, they serve the group by offering them their time and money.
According to their website, Rise Against endorses liberal political philosophies, as they are "big fans of Fat Mike's political views." Fat Mike is the lead singer and songwriter of the band NOFX which is known for left leaning politics. Moreover, they endorse the Punkvoter website, which is a liberal site for punks.
All of the group's members are vegetarians (as stated in an online interview that also talks about Joe's love of pizza) and active supporters of PETA. Their video for the single "Ready to Fall" addresses environmental degradation and its effect on animals, as well as animal cruelty inherent to factory farming and sport hunting. The group has called the video the most important video Rise Against has ever made. The Director's Cut of the video was first made available to a PETA website. " - In wikipedia
