"Metaverse" is a song by American alternative rock band Cage The Elephant. It was released on May 3, 2024, as the fourth and final single from their album Neon Pill.[1] The song became the bands 13th song to reach number one on the US Alternative Airplay chart, tying them with Green Day and Linkin Park for second-most number-one hits.[2][3]
In an interview with New Hampshire public radio lead singer Matt Shultz spoke on the song stating:[5]
It's one of the first songs where we've opened up the music to collaborate on. And there's an artist out of New York who goes by Danny Switchblade. He put together a mix tape and sent it over. And lyrically, it's kind of like this - I don't know if I'd say a coming-of-age, but it's a song of being on this journey and finding yourself within that in spite of any turbulent times in between.
The song was accompanied with an official lyric video upon release.[6]
