Rise Against Frontman Covers Guns N’ Roses For ‘This Concerns Everyone’ Compilation

When anything political is brought into the music world, musicians have a tendency to speak out against the matter at hand with different opinionated views resonating from it. Usually, they will stop at nothing until their message has been heard and will create music with lyrics that pertain to that matter that can truly help make a difference.

Today, A-F Records have announced that they will be releasing a compilation named This Concerns Everyone which brings awareness to the ongoing crisis in Iraq and the Middle East. The compilation will be released on November 18 and will feature Tom Morello (Rage Against The Machine), Chris Conley (Saves The Day), Justin Sane & Chris #2 (Anti-Flag), and many more. Proceeds from the record will be given to the Right To Heal Campaign, a joint campaign that is run by the Iraq Veterans Against The War, the Federation of Workers Councils and Unions in Iraq, and Organization Of Women’s Freedom In Iraq.
