Poppy returns with ‘Empty Hands,’ a new full-length album out now that pushes her genre-defying sound even further. The alt-pop provocateur continues her rapid evolution, delivering a record that collides nu-metal aggression, synth-driven pop, and alternative rock textures. It is the seventh studio album from the two-time Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter, and performance visionary.
From the opening pulse of “Public Domain,” the album moves with restless momentum. Distorted guitars surge beside shimmering electronic layers while Poppy’s voice shifts between melodic calm and sharp-edged intensity. The music lands with fearless energy, another bold step in a catalog built on transformation and risk.
Tracks like “Bruised Sky” and “Dying to Forget” drive the album’s heavier moments forward with grinding riffs and relentless percussion. The sound connects directly to the experimentation that helped earn Poppy a Grammy nomination for her collaboration with Knocked Loose on “Suffocate.” The balance between aggression and atmosphere gives the record its striking identity.
Producer Jordan Fish, formerly of Bring Me The Horizon, returns as a key collaborator following his work on the earlier album ‘Negative Spaces.’ Together they expand Poppy’s sonic palette, shaping a record that moves freely between metallic force and sleek pop construction.
‘Empty Hands’ stands as another fearless statement in Poppy’s catalog. The album carries sharp production, unpredictable songwriting, and a bold sense of sonic adventure that keeps listeners on edge from start to finish.
