Rise Against and Alkaline Trio have teamed up for a new split single that sees the two Chicago punk bands covering songs from each other’s catalogs.
Rise Against take on Alkaline Trio’s “Private Eye,” originally featured on the band’s 2001 album ‘From Here To Infirmary’. Alkaline Trio, meanwhile, have recorded their own version of Rise Against’s “Re-Education (Through Labor),” which originally appeared on 2008’s ‘Appeal To Reason’.
Both covers are available digitally now, with a limited-edition 7-inch vinyl release set to follow on January 29.
The split arrives just days before Rise Against and Alkaline Trio begin their upcoming U.S. co-headlining tour, which kicks off September 22 in Dallas.
