This spring, Cage the Elephant played a series of “Live & Unpeeled” shows to perform new, stripped-down arrangements of their songs with a string section in tow. These concerts also doubled as recording sessions for the band’s latest album, Unpeeled, out today via RCA Records. One of the songs recorded for the 21-track collection is “Punchin’ Bag”, the video for which the band is premiering today.

The track originally appeared on 2015’s Tell Me I’m Pretty. Cage the Elephant recorded their Unpeeled version at the Ryman Auditorium in their hometown of Nashville. In the video, the always dynamic frontman Matthew Shultz confidently struts and prances across the stage while singing about a woman who finally fights back against her abuser. “Heaven help ya she’s coming for you,” he warns on. “Heaven help ya the girl likes to fight/ Afraid of nothing and she carries a knife.” “The song is loosely based on Aileen Wuornos,” Shultz tells Consequence of Sound.

Speaking about the inspiration behind Unpeeled, Shultz previously explained: “Many times you’re adding sonic layers looking for something to hide behind, and what you don’t realize is that that vulnerability and that nakedness might be the most compelling and interesting thing about the song.”
