Poppy Announces New Album ‘Empty Hands’ and Unleashes Heavy New Single “Bruised Sky”

Poppy will return with her seventh studio album, ‘Empty Hands,’ arriving January 23, 2026 via Sumerian Records. She previews the record with the blistering new single “Bruised Sky,” a track that leans into her heaviest instincts yet. Produced and co-written by Jordan Fish, the song surges with industrial grit, melodic turns, and Poppy’s signature blend of clarity and chaos. Its accompanying video, directed by Orie McGinness, places Poppy and her band in a stark, dystopian world that mirrors the track’s intensity. ‘Empty Hands’ continues her evolution as a boundary-free visionary, folding together industrial edges, pop flourishes, and the uncanny, machine-like vocal identity that has defined her surrealist roots.
