Endgame is notable for being the first album to establish Rise Against’s stance on homophobia with the third song on the album, ” Make It Stop (September’s Children) “, which references the September 2010 suicides of teenagers in the LGBT community. Upon the album’s release, the band put a message on their website inviting listeners to apply the songs’ messages to current events, in addition to those on which they were originally based.
