"Grammatizator" / "Voice of Dissent" is a single by the American punk rock band Rise Against, released May 12, 2009, on Fat Wreck Chords.
According to the band, the single was a result of a bet the band lost to NOFX frontman and Fat Wreck Chords chairman Fat Mike, to release an exclusive 7" vinyl on his label, including 2 previously unreleased songs. The band decided to include the two last songs remaining from the recording sessions of their 2008 album Appeal to Reason, which musically, reminds more of their earlier hardcore punk material and less their latest melodic hardcore direction. The song "Grammatizator" is based on The Great Automatic Grammatizator, a novel by British author Roald Dahl.
The song "Grammatizator" was released as an exclusive iTunes digital single on October 20, 2009, through the band's main record label DGC/Interscope, releasing it after the original 7" vinyl was released on Fat Wreck.
The vinyl pressing was limited to 5,018 copies. 1,010 were pressed on red marble vinyl and the other 4008 were pressed on standard black.
All lyrics written by Tim McIlrath; all music composed by Rise Against.
