Poppy - Flux (September 24th, 2021) Album • Page 4

if you didn't like "so mean," i don't understand at all but you might have a tough time getting through?

album is sooo goddamn likable though

 

I found this mostly boring tbh

 

poppy's drummer is the real deal

between this and the deafheaven it's been a great year for metal drummers slumming it on alt-rock records

 

I'm digging the album. Love the shoegazey elements in a few of the songs

 

found someone on the level level level level level levelllll oh ohhh

 

Really digging the album. Following her career from the first ep has been a trip lol

 

I like this a lot but ffs turn the fucking vocals up in the mix please

 

Definitely more hit than miss on here, but not her strongest. Been jamming to On the Level

 

i think it’s her most focused full-length, whether it’s my favorite is up in the air

 

as usual maura gets it

With new album, Poppy’s ahead of whatever time it is - The Boston Globe

 

Digging this a lot.

Lessen the Damage sounds like Turnstile.

@irthesteve On the Level immediately made me think of

 

Yeah, this is so good. Love this sound, or rather all of these sounds, for her. Very diverse album but also very cohesive. The power-pop and punk stuff is quite enjoyable but it also goes far beyond that.

Standouts on first listen are definitely Lessen, Level, Hysteria, and Never, but that's not to slight any of the other songs.

 

This is tremendous, love the total change in sound.

 

I love love I Disagree (I think I had it as my number 2 album of the year) but I very well could end up liking this more tbh. It def has a shot

 

This is a great evolution, love her new screaming style

 

This is really great, love the 90's alt rock sound all over this. But yes, the vocals are completely drowned out most of the time and it's a real shame.

 

This just feels like her old stuff without the weirdo shit. Better song writing. Overall, pretty forgettable tho.

 

Legitimately think Hysteria is my song of the year

 

@irthesteve free tickets are still up

 

damn, don't think I can make this work. I'd have to go out there today just to buy a CD, probably will be sold out by then anyway

 

nah not amoeba, the lodge room. you can just rsvp your name online

Poppy - LodgeRoom

 

oh wild! not sure Pasadena is gonna happen, but we'll see!

 

This is...nice? Some songs really hit and others feel like kind of a slog. I appreciate it doing something different, even if not all of it is landing for me right now. Still think the vocal mix sounds weird on some of these tracks, the first two in particular (even though "Lessen the Damage" rules)

 

Just saw her first show back and it was so fun. Pretty perfect setlist too. Played most of the new album, few songs from Eat, few songs from I Disagree, X, Scary Mask and Fear of Dying
