Last Young Renegade is the seventh studio album by American rock band All Time Low.

Following the release of Future Hearts in April 2015, All Time Low began working on their next album shortly afterwards.

[2] The band spent several weeks staying at ranches in Big Bear and Palm Springs, California.

Later that month, the band began recording Last Young Renegade at EastWest Studios in Los Angeles.

On occasion, Gaskarth would leave the studio enthusiastic with the progress being made on the album, other times he would feel burned out, incapable of listening to music for two days in a row.

[2] Gaskarth stated the band were concerned with "just pushing ourselves forward" with Last Young Renegade, wishing to "explore ... some darker tones".

[2] Halfway through the writing process, while in the middle of working on four songs, the band came up with "Dirty Laundry" which helped "shaped the rest of the album.

"[5] He was unsure if the song was going to feature on the album "until later [on] ... there was this story forming and that 'Last Young Renegade' could be such a cool piece of what the record was about".

[5] Gaskarth explained that while Future Hearts was composed from the viewpoint of the band "talking about our youth," "Dirty Laundry" was written "from the other perspective ... taking more of a nostalgic approach.

"[3] He also said the track discusses "the guilty conscience and the mistakes that you've made and coming to terms with those and wearing them as badges.

Gaskarth said the video was influenced by "a dream about the ups and downs that make us who we are, sometimes worn and tired, but better for it... alive and inspired.
