Lightworker have released their cover of Hoobastank‘s track ‘Crawling In The Dark‘, which opened the latter’s 2001 platinum-certified self-titled album. Speaking of their take on the song, Lightworker states:
When we were looking for a song to cover, we knew we wanted to go with something that already had some heavy elements in it but without it being a “metal” song. “Crawling in the Dark” is a classic early 2000’s song that contains those elements and hasn’t been revisited for a long time. We were really excited about it when we first brought it up because it influenced our love for riffs and paved the way for heavier styles that we all enjoy today. We had a blast recording it, and we think you’ll dig it, too!
The song is available for streaming below.
