Show Me the Body covered Charli xcx’s “Rock Music” during their Spotify Live Room performance. The post-hardcore band’s rendition underscores the love the punk and metal world has for the pop star’s work.
Show Me the Body apply street-level punk gusto to the original. They swap the electronics for distorted bass and banjo, with vocalist Julian Cashwan Pratt’s shouted vocals providing a sincere counterpoint to the song’s ironic detachment.
