What output do you get with this? 
use MP3::Tag;
use warnings;
use strict;
use Data::Dumper;

my $file = shift;
my $mp3  = MP3::Tag->new($file);
$mp3->get_tags();
print Dumper($mp3);

Did you try mp3info2?

    Output:

    "Can't call method "get_tags" on an undefined value"

    I haven't tried mp3info2 as all the script I have found use MP3Tag

      Let's assume you have an mp3 file named "file.mp3". 
      use MP3::Tag;
use warnings;
use strict;
use Data::Dumper;

my $file = 'file.mp3';
my $mp3  = MP3::Tag->new($file);
$mp3->get_tags();
print Dumper($mp3);

      Substitute "file.mp3" with whatever your mp3 file name is.
