The Unraveling

The Unraveling is the debut full-length album by American punk rock band Rise Against, released on April 24, 2001, and distributed through Fat Wreck Chords. Mass Giorgini produced the album at Sonic Iguana Studios in Lafayette, Indiana, in December 2000. It is the only Rise Against studio album on which lead vocalist Tim McIlrath does not play guitar. The album was remastered and re-released in 2005. Although The Unraveling did not rank on any of the Billboard 200 charts, it led to Rise Against's re-signing with Fat Wreck Chords to record their second album, Revolutions per Minute. It received generally favorable reviews from critics. The album did not produce any singles, but several tracks were included in various media and compilations.
