Poppy's Newest Record Is a Genre Bending Mashup of Metal Pop Bangers
/You might know her from her quirky YouTube videos that shot her into stardom starting in 2014, but Poppy is one of the hottest artists of the new year. She recently released her genre-bending third album I Disagree and it's just what we needed for a “Yummy yummy yummy” way to start off 2020.
Something we can all agree on, however, is that Poppy’s latest release is a breath of fresh air. In what can only be described as a mash up of K-pop, metal, and really everything in between, this album takes the listener on a rollercoaster of different soundscapes that is oddly satisfying. While there have been glimpses of this heavy-pop sound in her previous albums, Poppy has fully embraced her new edgy persona. It’s also evident throughout the album that she is making a new name for herself after parting ways with her former producer. The lyrics in “Sit/Stay” are a perfect example of how Poppy has taken control of her image and her music. All of which culminated into the title track, “I Disagree.” a banger of a song that will have anyone bopping along.
Poppy will be taking her new album on the road for a winter tour starting January 22nd, AND will be making her way through Denver at the Gothic Theatre on January 28th. Don’t miss your chance to see one of the next big artists! Jam out to her super catchy tunes by getting your tickets here.
