New Music: NERVO (ft. Kylie Minogue & Jake Shears) - "The Other Boys" [Audio / Review]
What a surprise! We knew there was a Kylie Minogue and Jake Shears collaboration on NERVO’s upcoming full-length debut album “Collateral”, but since the album is only two days away from release, and there was no premiere of the much-anticipated track yet, we just assumed we would have to wait till the “Collateral” release to check it out. However, here comes NERVO with a big last-minute surprise! They world premiered “The Other Boys” (that’s the title of their ‘collab’ with Australian goddess Kylie and Scissor Sisters frontman Jake – AND now we know Nile Rodgers is also a collaborator in the song – he provides a guitar masterclass!) via Nylon magazine’s website today, July 22nd… I repeat; only two days before NERVO’s new album is out.
“The Other Boys” is a club-ready, disco-dance track that will undoubtedly slay (gay) clubs around the world this summer. It’s massive (the production is hot.org stuff) and it’s just a freaking anthem – helloooooo… Jake and Kyle on the same track! Would’ve loved to hear more solo Kylie on the song, though! That’s my only tiny critique.
