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.
“Rock Music” was the lead single from Charli’s latest album, Music, Fashion, Film , which Consequence praised with an A- review. Show Me the Body’s newest album, Alone Together , earned our Heavy Song of the Week honor for its track “Eat for Peace.” Both the Charli xcx and Show Me the Body LPs earned mentions in our Best Albums of July 2026 rundown.
