(Charli XCX)

Charli XCX has uncovered a new track in the wake of her raucous AMAs performance, swiftly following on the heels of previous cut "Gold Coins", called "Breaking Up".

Following a similar chorus chord progression to Puddle Of Mudd's "She Hates Me", XCX channels the ghost of pop-punk past, using crisp power chords and yelly backing vox to carve out an abrasive pop tune.

Listen to "Breaking Up" below, and then watch XCX perform "Boom Clap" and "Break The Rules" at last night's (23 November) AMAs.
