A question

Does anybody have that Rise Above album that Rollins put out a couple of years ago to benefit the West Memphis 3? Just wondering if it's any good. I can't really picture Ice-T or Lemmy singing Black Flag songs.

no but what was the west memphis 3?

You can listen to it through iTunes. I have three tracks downloaded off of it. They aren't bad. Rollins and Chuck D do a good job of Rise Above.

Three teenagers who were convicted of murdering a little kid. Supposedly they were arrested and convicted because of the way they dress and the music they like or something along those lines. They've been locked down since the mid-90's I think. There was an HBO documentary about them called Paradise Lost.

Yeah, i saw that documentary years ago on HBO.
i thought there was more than one kid killed though.

i think that its always interesting to hear other peoples interpretations of older songs, i have it and thought it was worth a listen for a fresh take on things, maybe preview if you can

I have it and I love it. The music is SO clear and the quality is great. Some of the vocal jobs are not that great, but some are awesome. There are some weird ones on there too. Corey from Slipknot does a song thats really good. The Tom Araya one is awesome. The Keith Morris and Rollins ones are obviously awesome.

The music is all played by the Rollins band so it sounds great as well.

If anyone is curious about the cause check www.WM3.org

Such a tight album!

I will have to get this.

Was that the three kids documentary that had the WHITE TRASH stepdad that possibility did the murders? He was a part time preacher and they all living in a trainer park and the kids were sexually assualted and then murdered? That was one fucked up situation. That documentary really was disturbing. The supposed murderers were accused becasue they wore black and the stepdad said they were satanic or something?
