we toss and turn but don't sleep

I read an interview with Rise Against recently where they discuss the new album and talk about how some of the music was inspired by My Chemical Romance, with whom they enjoyed touring very much in 2007. And now I can't find it. Anyone know the interview I'm talking about?

Also? The video of Re-education (Through Labor) was released today. I am currently making ♥__♥ at Tim McIlrath on my monitor for quoting JFK at us.

Oh, I totally agree with you and I was riveted because I didn't know what precisely they were stuffing in their bags.

It was just a very bold statement. I'm interested in the general reaction to it (is it on MTV or anywhere?) and also the way that the quote at the beginning makes it read a cautionary tale.

It's definitely, in the current social-political-economical climate very timely.

It is available on MTV2's website, and it's supposed to be playing on MTV-U, but I don't get that channel, so I don't know how often it's shown. I would be *very* curious to hear the general reaction to this video. They've always been really political, but I think this video is bolder than previous ones.
