Nick Cave's menacing hit "Red Right Hand" has been given a unique twist by Godfather Of Punk Iggy Pop and Pulp icon Jarvis Cocker.
The new cover of Cave's '94 number has been done for TV show Peaky Blinders - "Red Right Hand" is the show's theme, with a different artist tackling the track each season (a bit like The Wire and its "Way Down In The Hole" theme). PJ Harvey and Arctic Monkeys have tried their hand at it in recent years.
Hear Cave's original below.
