Fresh off the success of her 2024 release Negative Spaces, metalcore starlet Poppy announced today that she\u2019ll be dropping a fresh batch of new songs when her seventh studio effort Empty Hands on January 23 via Sumerian Records. To mark the occasion, the surrealist artist with a set of crazy pipes released the first official single from the new record, titled \u201cBruised Sky\u201d.<\/p>\n
As expected, the track flirts with both the melodic and brutal side of her sound. Poppy continues to peddle in equal parts industrial metal, metalcore, and pop. And don\u2019t worry, fans of Poppy\u2019s earlier works \u2014 apparently the new album harkens back to the more surreal periods of her career. As for \u201cBruised Sky\u201d itself, it\u2019s a sonic bruiser that was produced and co-written by Jordan Fish. Yes, that Jordan Fish.<\/p>\n
It should be noted that this isn\u2019t the first brand new song from Poppy in recent memory. She recently released the song \u201cUnravel\u201d<\/a>, which kicked all kinds of ass. She was also involved in a Babymetal track \u201cfrom me to u\u201d<\/a> and a blockbuster song \u201cEnd Of You\u201d<\/a> featuring herself, Evanescence\u2019s Amy Lee, and Spiritbox\u2019s Courtnsssssey LaPlante. Oh and she released her own version of Wham!\u2019s holiday staple \u201cLast Christmas\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n
