On June 21, 2011 John Cooper posted that the band rehearsed new music for the first time and that they were getting ready for a new album, recording a new record in January/February 2012. However, the band was then scheduled to headline the WinterJam Tour.

In an Interview on January 26, 2013 In Beaumont TX, John announced that the new album would be titled Rise and would be coming out in May 2013, but was later scheduled for a June 25, 2013 release.

The first single, "Sick of It", was released on April 9, 2013. The lead Christian radio single, "American Noise", was released on April 16, 2013. The title track "Rise" was released May 14, 2013. The fourth track from the album "Not Gonna Die" was released on June 11, 2013. The band performed the title track off Rise on the July 11, 2013 airing of Conan.

According to Howard Benson, the album was not meant to be a concept album, but John Cooper said "I don't love concept records typically; the emphasis is on the fact that it's a concept record rather than good songs."
