[Watch] Poppy Fights Off ‘BLOODMONEY’ in Latest Music Video
Poppy is back and she’s bringing more of that metal energy that crossed into the horror world with her insanely bloody music video for her single “X” off the album Am I a Girl?
Following the release of “I Disagree” and “Concrete”, Poppy shares a video for new single “BLOODMONEY”, the third single ahead of her expectation-subverting upcoming album I Disagree (out January 10 via Sumerian). It visually channels Marilyn Manson’s videos and Rob Zombie’s films, while also showing Poppy kicking some ass.
“The new track expounds on the unpredictably hybridized sound of the new album, combining her prolificacy for indelible earworm vocal melodies, addictive pop hooks, and the bludgeoning bombast of industrial-infused metal,” explains the press release.
“BLOODMONEY” follows on the heels of the album’s first two videos, including lead single “Concrete” and the album’s title track “I Disagree,” the latter of which she performed live on last Wednesday’s episode of WWE’s NXT (watch the clip here).
This past Monday she announced the United States leg of her 2020 I Disagree Tour. The US leg begins January 22, 2020, in San Francisco, CA, and precedes the already-announced tour in the UK and Europe. Tickets & VIP for the United States leg will be on-sale Friday, November 8th at 10AM local time. See a full list of tour dates and ticket information here.
It’s a new day, and you’ve got new John Carpenter to listen to. John Carpenter, Daniel Davies and Cody Carpenter have released the new track He Walks By Night this morning, the second single off their upcoming album Lost Themes IV: Noir, out May 3 on Sacred Bones Records.
Lost Themes IV: Noir is the latest installment in a series that sees Carpenter releasing new music for John Carpenter movies that don’t actually exist. The first Lost Themes was released in 2015, followed by Lost Themes II in 2016 and Lost Themes III: Alive After Death in 2021.
Sacred Bones previews, “It’s been a decade since John Carpenter recorded the material that would become Lost Themes, his debut album of non-film music and the opening salvo in one of Hollywood’s great second acts. Those vibrant, synth-driven songs, made in collaboration with his son Cody Carpenter and godson Daniel Davies, kickstarted a musical renaissance for the pioneering composer and director. With Lost Themes IV: Noir, they’ve struck gold again, this time mining the rich history of the film noir genre for inspiration.
“Since the first Lost Themes, John has referred to these compositions as “soundtracks for the movies in your mind.” On the fourth installment in the series, those movies are noirs. Like the film genre they were influenced by, what makes these songs “noirish” is sometimes slippery and hard to define, and not merely reducible to a collection of tropes. The scores for the great American noir pictures were largely orchestral, while the Carpenters and Davies work off a sturdy synth-and-guitar backbone.
“The trio’s free-flowing chemistry means Lost Themes IV: Noir runs like a well-oiled machine—the 1951 Jaguar XK120 Roadster from Kiss Me Deadly, perhaps, or the 1958 Plymouth Fury from John’s own Christine. It’s a chemistry that’s helped power one of the most productive stretches of John’s creative life, and Noir proves that it’s nowhere near done yielding brilliant results.”
