All Rise is the first Naked Raygun album to feature Pierre Kezdy on bass and Eric Spicer on drums, though all of the album's songs had been written by vocalist Jeff Pezzati and guitarist John Haggerty before Kezdy and Spicer joined the band. At least one song, "New Dreams", was written during earlier incarnations of the band and a live version appears as a bonus track to the band's Basement Screams EP from 1983.
