.CageTheElephant and IggyPop collaborate on new track “Broken Boy,” combining the sounds of alternative rock and classic punk:
, but now features the “Godfather of Punk” Iggy Pop for a new twist with some punk flavor.
“Broken Boy” fades into the eerie sounds of what reminds us of the title track from the popular ‘80s-inspired TV show. With futuristic synthesizer sounds and a feature from an ‘80s superstar, “Broken Boy” sounds like a blast from the past. As the volume creeps up, so do the drums, and as the angsty banging away on the drum kit gets louder and louder, it almost becomes deafening.
Adding the twist to the already-released song, Pop comes in with, “Tell my why I’m forced to live in this skin / I’m an alien,” making us a little concerned about whether this boy they’re singing about is genuinely okay, considering the fact that he feels like an alien after being burned by vampire kisses. Just a normal day.
The Stooges front man has still got it, and the collaboration of messy, head-banging punk and alternative rock mesh beautifully together to create something new.
