oh hell yeah
"eat" is just the same version as that grammys performance it sounds like, still fantastic though

i listened to it twice through all of these songs are fucking incredible

whole thing rules, she keeps getting better and better
― ufo, Wednesday, 9 June 2021 02:47 (two years ago) link
she sounds even better now that she's shifted away from the high vocal affect she used to do
― ufo, Wednesday, 9 June 2021 02:49 (two years ago) link
i will never stop listening to this
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Wednesday, 9 June 2021 02:58 (two years ago) link
are you seeing her open for deftones on their upcoming tour
― ufo, Wednesday, 9 June 2021 02:59 (two years ago) link
i had to sell my ticket bc it coincides with another vacation :(
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Wednesday, 9 June 2021 03:00 (two years ago) link
curse you rescheduled dates
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Wednesday, 9 June 2021 03:01 (two years ago) link
oh that's a shame! i just saw that she was opening for them and thought 'wow that seems like a dream brad combination'
i think i'm just going to keep this on loop all day, she really understands exactly what i want out of metal it's incredible
― ufo, Wednesday, 9 June 2021 03:02 (two years ago) link
oh wow i didn't dream that this came out
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Wednesday, 9 June 2021 12:50 (two years ago) link
she knew what we would like to eat for sure

Poppy's one of those contempo artists where everything's about streaming, so it's SO FUCKING HARD to work out how to buy her music, especially in FLAC.I'd love the EPs on CD, but that ain't gonna happen (blessed that I got I Disagree on CD though!)
― raven, Wednesday, 9 June 2021 13:35 (two years ago) link
Found it:https://www.zdigital.com.au/artist/poppy/release/eat-nxt-soundtrack-16338186This exercise is particularly difficult in Australia...
― raven, Wednesday, 9 June 2021 13:39 (two years ago) link
i was just about to point you there, 7digital/zdigital etc. is about the only reliable place for FLACs or even mp3s apart from bandcamp for artists who use it these days, now that google play music is dead
― ufo, Wednesday, 9 June 2021 13:41 (two years ago) link
Yeah, thanks @ufo. Glad I remembered! It is where I usually end up.
― raven, Wednesday, 9 June 2021 13:43 (two years ago) link
Oh, yes, this EP. She's Charli XCXI. I was going to say Charli XXX, but that's obviously Ayesha Erotic.

"say cheese" song of the year at this point
― ufo, Friday, 18 June 2021 06:28 (two years ago) link
This EP is really the best? I didn't really get her earlier stuff because they all sounded like two or three unrelated songs mashed together, but this is brilliant from start to finish.
― braised cod, Saturday, 26 June 2021 20:55 (two years ago) link
the only previous track that i'd say really felt like a bunch of different songs mashed together was "concrete" but it did so in a really fun way that worked

Am I reading too much into lyrics or is "Her" a fuck-you/goodbye ode to Titanic Sinclair?
Sucks it's kind of bland, especially against the backdrop of that EP
― octobeard, Wednesday, 30 June 2021 17:02 (two years ago) link
"Produced by Justin Meldal-Johnsen" !!!
― ufo, Wednesday, 30 June 2021 23:01 (two years ago) link
this is fine but nowhere near as exciting as the EP
have no objection to a JMJ-produced alt rock album on the way from her though?
― ufo, Wednesday, 30 June 2021 23:04 (two years ago) link
Liking this better than the EP stuff but then again I'm more into 90's MTV alternative nostalgia than processed metal.
― licorice oratorio (baaderonixx), Thursday, 1 July 2021 14:54 (two years ago) link
the EP heavily tapped into my love of the downward spiral
― ufo, Thursday, 1 July 2021 14:55 (two years ago) link
from my understanding she has been recording or has recorded an album with justin meldal-johnsen and it will largely sound like "her"

:D
― STOCK FIST-PUMPER BRAD (BradNelson), Friday, 30 July 2021 04:59 (two years ago) link
it's decent but the vocals sit in the mix really weird
not expecting the album to be as good as EAT but it still should be enjoyable
― ufo, Friday, 30 July 2021 05:01 (two years ago) link
sounds like metric

this one's really pitch perfect 90s alt-rock pastiche. fine but i already really miss when she was exciting only a few months ago lol

“so mean” is the best song ever
― STOCK FIST-PUMPER BRAD (BradNelson), Thursday, 26 August 2021 12:16 (two years ago) link
i have listened to it so many times that i’m worried i’m wearing it out
what can i say, poppy makes the music i want to hear
― STOCK FIST-PUMPER BRAD (BradNelson), Thursday, 26 August 2021 15:17 (two years ago) link
ahhhhh "lessen the damage"!!!!!!

god this is a sick rock album
― STOCK FIST-PUMPER BRAD (BradNelson), Friday, 24 September 2021 04:32 (two years ago) link
between this and the new deafheaven this is a great year for metal drummers slumming it on alt-rock records

"hysteria" song of the year
― STOCK FIST-PUMPER BRAD (BradNelson), Friday, 24 September 2021 04:41 (two years ago) link
"never find my place" is pretty with teeth
this album is good but still kinda pales in comparison to EAT
― ufo, Friday, 24 September 2021 08:51 (two years ago) link
love the way the black metal blastbeat bridge of "on the level" keeps threatening to take over the song
― STOCK FIST-PUMPER BRAD (BradNelson), Friday, 24 September 2021 14:13 (two years ago) link
I will never understand this board's fixation with Poppy.

Poppy roxx ... not much to understand
i regret not being more fully behind it earlier, i liked it theoretically before i realized i liked it for real

Send "Lessen the Damage" to the "Good 4 U"-loving teen in your life
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Friday, 24 September 2021 18:12 (two years ago) link
I’d say if I have a reservation it’s that there’s something a bit conventional abt the songcraft which is extremely strong but I kind of wish it had a few more traces of the aggrieved/extreme tendencies that gave it such early shock factor
― xheugy eddy (D-40), Friday, 24 September 2021 21:09 (two years ago) link
*aggro not aggrieved
― xheugy eddy (D-40), Friday, 24 September 2021 21:15 (two years ago) link
yeah this album is solid but ultimately its alt-rock pastiche is just less exciting than her previous pop-metal stuff which was a much more distinctive niche
― ufo, Saturday, 25 September 2021 00:40 (two years ago) link
I don’t mind the mainstreaming It just feels a hair too fast to me

I love the records (esp "I Disagree") but the gratuitous mispronounced Japanese lyrics are cringe
