Platinum-selling alternative rock band AWOLNATION has released "Run (Beautiful Things)" along with an accompanying video for the track.

On his reason to create an alternate version of "Run" AWOLNATION's Aaron Bruno says, "I think that everyone can relate to negative feelings and that realization of the dark side to humanity, which unfortunately we see too much of around us at times. But then there's the other side we find in beauty, positivity and love that is ultimately more powerful. I started to change the lyric during our live shows and it was natural to want to record this new version of the song."

"Run" is the title track off the LA band's sophomore album, which features the No. 1 hit "Hollow Moon (Bad Wolf)" as well as Top 5 hits "I Am" and "Woman Woman." The original version of "Run" has become a viral sensation amongst vine community members, spawning over 250 million vine 'loops' so far, and Rolling Stone declared "the dystopian, orchestral 'Run' is one of AWOLNATIONS's most cinematic and epic songs."

AWOLNATION was recently selected to join Prophets of Rage on their nationwide summer/fall tour. The group, comprised of Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello, bassist Tim Commerford and drummer Brad Wilk along with Chuck D and DJ Lord of Public Enemy and Cypress Hill's B-Real will kick off their "Make America Rage Again" trek on August 19 in Fairfax, VA. It runs through October 16 in Chula Vista, CA. The band will also be performing at Austin City Limits festival on October 7.
