I saw a video clip of Tim Mcllrath singing with Bad Religion. He and Graffin split the vocals for "Let them Eat War" from "the Empire Strikes First". He actually did a damn good job.
I think they've got a great edge, and sometimes I'll hear a bit of an Ian McKaye influence in Mcllrath's voice, which can't hurt your standing in the punk community. I think that's why, at any given Rise Against show, you'll see guys who have been going to Desendants shows since the 80's, as well as young kids who only recently discovered loud, angry music. Their influences are clear, but they're still progressing and finding their own voice. That's the way it ought to be.
