Lest anyone not grasp how big Against Me! is these days, the band recently participated in an interview with Blender Magazine discussing selling out, and even being compared to Nirvana by Butch Vig, who actually knows a few things about Nirvana.

The article notes:

Indeed, Gabel recalls master theorists of old-school thrash like the Minutemen's D. Boon and Bad Religion's Greg Graffin, guys as famous for the endless enjambment in their lyrics as for the seriousness of their convictions. When the band played Late Night With Conan O'Brien in 2005, they introduced themselves to America with "Don't Lose Touch," a weirdly catchy position paper on the unholy marriage of art and commerce set to a militant disco groove.

For Jimmy Kimmel Live, they went with "From Her Lips to God's Ears (the Energizer)," in which Gabel scathingly, but also empathetically, gets inside the mind of Condoleezza Rice. He shouts, "The president's giving a speech in Georgia to remember the voice of a slain civil-rights leader … Oh Condoleezza, do you get the fucking joke?"
