Following Poppy’s recent guest spots with Bad Omens and Knocked Loose, the post-genre game-changer is getting introspective through a brand new solo single. Titled “New Way Out,” Poppy’s latest self-examining banger is streaming as of right now (June 4th)
A press release explains that the song hits on a “message of self-growth and pulling oneself back from the edge,” and you can definitely get that from the sung-and-screamed energy Poppy pushes into the piece.
Supported by hard mechano-swing synth lines, chunked-up industrial-pop riffs and hard-edged snare hits, she contorts her vocal cords around themes of being chased by “demons” and being pushed around by circumstance, but also of persevering through a personal reckoning, though only if “you’re strong enough to lead it.”
You can check out the new standalone single, which was produced by former Bring Me the Horizon keyboardist-producer Jordan Fish, up above.
