Whether or not you listen to music outside of the hard rock / metal world, chances are you've heard the X Ambassadors song "Renegades" numerous times over the past year. But if you thought the song could stand to be "rocked up" a bit more, 36 Crazyfists have you covered. The band is teaming up with Loudwire to bring you the exclusive premiere of their cover of "Renegades," as heard in the player below.

Frontman Brock Lindow tells us, "Before the Killswitch Engage tour, we wanted to get something out to our fans and let them know we had a new album in the works and in the meantime hear something that we did to step outside our normal box and put our own stamp on a song that our A&R guru Darren suggested we attempt. This is the final product of such attempt and it was pretty fun to do to a song that is fairly mellow but lyrically was pretty powerful and something we could get behind. We gave the song a shot of strong Whiskey and took it out for a rip!"

If you like what you hear, the 36 Crazyfists cover of "Renegades" will be made available as an E-single this Friday (April 8). As stated, 36 Crazyfists are in the midst of working on the follow-up to their Time and Trauma album.

The band is currently on the road with Killswitch Engage, Memphis May Fire and Toothgrinder. Check out their upcoming dates below the player.
