Of Mice & Men have released a stream of their cover of Pink Floyd’s classic 1973 track Money.

The song originally appeared on Floyd’s The Dark Side Of The Moon album – and the cover will be included on the US outfit’s upcoming record Defy, which is set to arrive on January 19 via Rise Records.

Defy is the band’s first record with bassist Aaron Pauley on vocal duties after Austin Carlile departed in December 2016. He’s joined in the lineup by drummer David Valentino Arteaga and guitarists Phil Manansala and Alan Ashby.

Of Mice & Men previously released the tracks Back To Me, Unbreakable, Warzone and Defy.

The band will head out on the road throughout April, with live dates planned in Russia, Europe and the UK.
