Rogue Rising’s debut single, “CRUSH,” is an electrifying anthem of defiance and self-empowerment, driven by fiery guitar leads, a hook-laden chorus, and an unmistakable edge. Helmed by Rowan “Rogue” Picard, the band’s fearless singer, songwriter, and lead guitarist, “CRUSH” is both a raw reaction to betrayal and a celebration of resilience.
The track was produced by five-time JUNO Award–winner and Glass Tiger founding member Michael Hanson, who helped elevate Rogue’s uncompromising vision. With its sharp blend of rock, pop punk, and melodic solos, “CRUSH” captures a sound that is as relatable as it is rebellious.
Written during a deeply personal time, “CRUSH” channels the frustration of being underestimated and turns it into fuel for overcoming negativity. The result is a cathartic, guitar-driven track with a message that resonates universally: rise above, embrace your power, and never let anyone dull your fire.
