This album is just a really damn well made cheesburger in a world of fancy experimental dishes. Its not groundbreaking by any means, but my word is it enjoyable.
she made a bunch of experimental records over the years but she went the mainstream approach this time to finally get her flowers. i love this record a lot regardless tho
not even a poppy fan myself but im currently obsessed with this album lmao. it's not the most groundbreaking thing in the world but not everything needs to be!!! just geniunely great well made music. im happy you enjoyed it bogdan ❤
Man Jordan Fish is just Jordan Fish-ing all over the place currently with this, Architects and House of Protection. Can't overstate how well he understands the genre.
Poppy and Jordan are a match made in heaven, Fantano did have a lot of nitpicks with the album (while still giving it a 7!) but he specifically mentioned that you can just tell they're a special combo. As well as metal they're both into and influenced by hyperpop and some parts of k-pop (it's a verrrrry broad genre lol), j-pop and j-rock as well. So I really hope we see more of them together!
@@ArcTV. exactly I think it has that 2000s slickness, which works in some cases. I like this album a lot but it definitely has this radio sheen with amped up metalcore
The LP album was embarrassing. What was more embarrassing was all these reactors falling in line. Woman vocalist ooo yeah this is awesome. Please the LP album sound like a freshman album of any other band.
@@Sh1k4ri lol relax, i don’t have the power to stop anyone from enjoying it sheesh. I do however have the power to express my opinion. why do these morons always think a negative opinion on something affects their ability to think for themselves? Music is an art form, in any art form you will have fans and critics, i suggest you get used to it cause it’s not going anywhere. I stand by what i said, its not good… from the lyrics to musicianship, its a definitive step backwards. This album has some echoes of LP but for the most part i believe they should have just created a new band, cause it has very little DNA in common with any LP album. It’s similar to me as if metallica came out with a new album and sounded like something in the vein of puddle of mud. Look, the reality is without chester or a phenomenal vocalist to replicate his presence, this just doesnt have the same soul as linkin park. i suggest you go back and listen to the discography and then listen to the latest album, it’s not the same band at all. LP was known for blending multiple genres, including rock, rap, electronic, and nu-metal, into a cohesive and emotionally unique sound. All i heard was not that. In fact i believe without the release of “lost” we wouldn’t even be talking about LP.
Been dying for Poppy to get more popular since she dropped the I Disagree album which got me into her. Then the collab with Fever 333 and tours with BMTH. Then the collab with Knocked Loose just blee her up. I love to see it
@ライラアー sure! Poppy Nothing vs Evanescence Bring me to life Negative spaces vs Hole Celebrity skin Surviving on defiance vs Deftones Sextape New way out vs Linkin Park One step closer Have you had enough? vs NIN. I can't pin down which song exactly, I would need to relisten to nin discography, it's been a while now. I'm thinking Head like a hole, but I'm almost sure there was something more similar from their newer albums. If I find the song, I'll update it here :D

Glad you made a reaction video for this album, and there are heavy, metalcore and pop songs. It's so varied, which makes the album really amazing. One of the best of the year for sure!
A song like vital has such a bring me the horizon feel and nothing is like evanescence meets spiritbox and the centre is falling out is like knocked loose haha
The entire album is amazing but a highlight for me is Surviving on Defiance. Not what I'd usually listen to in the slightest, but it invokes some kind of emotional response in me that is just so different from what im used to and I love it
True! The different is I like 'new way out' more. Nevertheless, I like you mentioned the 'emotional' because this album really touches the soul and did not expect from Poppy
@@corehideout emotional for me is Linger off Zig. idky but something about it just punches me in the gut...the lines 'in the whites of your eyes, i can see my next life, smell the lilies at night, tell me what you will remember me by...I don't care if you lie'. The whole song really but that one part, I don't care if you lie just....fuck, man
I’m so f**king tired of hearing people saying “not original” “expected” and a lot of other things about the new album. Girl has been doing crazy stuff and almost the whole metal scene has ignored her all over the past years. She’s unfortunately (and ironically) gaining more attention doing these “generic” formulas that you all complain about it than doing the weird sh!t. You all just choose to ignore her when she does the most original sh!t and are failing to criticize the “generic” sounds because you all are just giving her attention because of it.
Bro what a comment, the logic behind most people's behaviour is just nonsense, there's just none. That's why I chose to appreciate almost every creative direction of an artist and show it to them with support, because most people won't ever be fully content because of their plain ignorance, and the most creative artists are undervalued too much, they need to hear our love of their unique work.
People are allowed to like or dislike whatever they want really, if you love it? Fuck yeah im glad for you. Does someone dislike it? Fine, sucks for them as its much more fun to love something. Most the songs arent my thing, but i have a hell of a lot of respect for poppy and how far shes come doing her own thing. But that doesnt make the criticism less valid, especially if you spent years listening metalcore for example youre going to get tired of hearing the same shit everytime. Generic is always going to do better as a whole because its safe.
@@thesaviorofsouls5210 Sometimes listening too much of something is a curse and you can't appreciate a very good song anymore cause it sounds generic for you. I have that with most of pop punk. Been listening that shit for 20 years now.
Poppy really took traction for me after Knocked Loose, she killed that track in the best way. Genuinely this album is a diamond in the rough right now, absolute work of art. Lyrically, sonically, Jordan's production on it, everything. Purchased tickets to one of her tour dates this morning on a whim lol.
Love it. I hear SO much bring me in this (Jordan Fish cooking as per usual). At first I was disappointed because I've grown to like Poppy's variety and this all sounded similar...but again after a few listens I'm obsessed.
1:40 Scott Pilgrim Movie? The song "Black Sheep" has a very similar vocal melody at the start of the verses. For me the "Sleep Token" song is kind of a 'The Birthday Massacre' song, in the same way you described it.
While I usually find myself agreeing with your music reviews, I have to respectfully disagree on Poppy’s latest album. For me, it’s nothing short of a masterpiece, a stunning tribute to the genre we love. It’s an incredibly well-crafted collection that captures the essence of experiencing diverse styles, from post-hardcore to calmer, fun tunes. It feels like stepping into the mind and world of someone living through all these experiences, just like us. It’s an artistic performance beyond just an album. Absolutely magnificent.
loved the album, and metal poppy is only getting started! editing as i watch the video: yeah push go also reminded me of something. skimmed through a few tracks and i think it reminds me a lot of material girl (madonna).
I’ve been getting more into Poppy and this is one my favorite albums. I enjoyed it so much, I ended up getting tickets for the tour. Can’t wait to hear Poppy live!
This really won me over in the end. the center’s falling out, surviving on defiance, and halo are all songs I’ve listened to basically on loop for the past week or so. I really hope the more experimental songs and interludes remind everyone of what Jordan can do. He can do so much more than “modern metal,” that’s just what a lot of people are asking of him at the moment.
Is a banger. have been listening a lot to it lately. guess its just the fact that its catchy and usually i dont listen to female lead singers. but this one sure as hell is fun. Poppy got it going for her i tell ya!
idk why but when i heard the song negative spaces i had to go listen to mcfly's ultraviolet for the first time since i was 12 i cant tell why specifically that song but yeah haha
I thought I was not gonna like this. But seems like I wasn't familiar enough with her game. Sounds great for so many different reasons and I'm sure Poppy will be that first step to metal for so many people.
>Poppy will be that first step to metal for so many people. She's been dabbling in metal and heavy music for a while, i think the Bad Omens and Knocked Loose collabs got her some real attention. The gatekeep-y metalcore bros being extremely normal about it, as you could imagine because it's a PRETTY GIRL with a HIGH VOICE how can that be hardcore
i love how some of the poppier tracks sound very magdalena bay which is one of my favourite artists outside of metal. this album is very generic but happens to hit all the right notes for me personally
@@cervus_t I'm aware of that. However I'm quite sure you'll mature and grow out of this album quickly. AOTY needs to be fresh, creative and should have replay ability which I don't think this record offers. It's a good fun to listen but that's pretty much it. According to current ratings on metal websites the three bands I've mentioned might win it unanimously
@raahemburki850 I don't think this album is even close to AOTY. I just think that there is no "right" way to enjoy music, and there is no "right" music to enjoy. Let people have fun and listen to whatever brings them joy. And good luck recommending music by saying "because music you like isn't good" P.s. Also, you recommend Opeth under the video of a guy who can't stand their style. Doubt, you'll find like-minded people here.
@cervus_t agreed. Maybe bands or artists like Poppy or BMTH are gateway materials imo. Who knows (or maybe my wishful thinking) that people later may jam to bands like Insomnium, Opeth etc
i was worried before this dropped that it would all be metalcore, and just kinda generic, but i really ended up loving it all. it’s such a nice mix. i still feel like it could’ve done with another poppier song like crystallized, just to feel more balanced, but i still loved it
Some of these songs sound like if Olivia Rodrigo was to get a bit metalcore. Some songs are just not for me but it's definitely a decent album regardless.
I don´t understand why every song is like oh I have listen before, Slipknot here somewhere else there. Why can´t someone listen to an album and just listen to it without mention there was something before. I think Poppy is just a very good musician. Maybe have listen herself to so many songs that bring her ideas for her own. But didn´t think about who had done before because she creat her own. And don´t think about if someone like it or not.
I really liked the album but the guitar and drum sounds are so generic, if it wasn't for her voice I swear to god I wouldn't be able to recognize what artist this is, it sounds like hundred of other bands.
Same. I do like what Jordan puts in the table production-wise, but is not mind-blowing for exactly those reasons you mentioned. I even feel that the last BMTH album has a way more interesting guitar and drum sound, which is weird considering Jordan actually was pretty involved in that one too.
Heyyy Bogdan, why not listen to metalcore classic bands like Darkest Hour or Unearth? Their best albums are usually some old ones, but both released new album in 2023-2024 Unearth - The Wretched; the Ruinous (2023) Unearth - Bask in the Blood of Our Demons (EP) (2024) Darkest Hour - Perpetual | Terminal (2024) If want to listen to a old iconic albums: Unearth - The March (2008) Unearth - The Oncoming Storm (2004) Darkest Hour - Godless Prophets & The Migrant Flora (2017) Darkest Hour - Deliver Us (2007) Darkest Hour - Undoing Ruin (2005) I just think that in part these bands are less visible compared to As I Lay Dying and Killswitch Engage and I think they deserve more recognition and feedback channels help more than what is more known. If you don't plan to listen to the new AILD album at least try to listen to a new DH or Unearth album because Boundaries is NOT a substitute for AILD's style AT ALL, because a substitute for an old band can still be an old one. (Don't get me wrong, Boundaries is fantastic and I've been listening to them since the first album thanks to you and I think we should also make them known but their "old" metalcore style is trying to sound more Hardcore Punk like Knocked Loose does too) I also miss when you would sometimes listen to older songs/albums and not just from the same year we are on, idk Watching your videos since 2019 :))
Its interesting cuz of variety but thats also the reason i would never listen to this album from top to botom and why Breakdown of Sanity is my top 3 of all time listened albums.
Discovered poppy back when she released I disagree. I love the weirdness of that album so kinda hoped for it here a bit more (crystallised tickled that itch a bit although I wish the following song was a heavier one like the centre). Such a great album though and surprised me!
Bogdan: "Lyrics I are not super deep."
Also Bogdan: " A M O N G U S "
I mean my brain did the same thing
This album is just a really damn well made cheesburger in a world of fancy experimental dishes. Its not groundbreaking by any means, but my word is it enjoyable.

Yup. Noticed that too. I also picked up moments in other songs songs on this album sounding a bit like: Hole, Deftones, NIN and Evanescence :D

Honestly this is good. Hope Poppy leans more into this direction.
1:45 The melody in there reminded me of a song in the scott pilgrim movie
Poppy: Pop Dancetrack!
Bogdan: YES! WEIRD!
Love it.
the popped loose song on the album (the center's falling out) is just straight banger!
popped loose 😂
Is a banger. have been listening a lot to it lately. guess its just the fact that its catchy and usually i dont listen to female lead singers. but this one sure as hell is fun. Poppy got it going for her i tell ya!
For me what it makes this album incredible is her high pitch voice on top of low tuned guitars. That is a great combo for my ears!
10:21 is this not Celebrity Skin by Hole??
Yes my wife and I thought that too
I thought it sounded like a Smashing Pumpkins song on first listen
I just love when Artists take creativity to the next Level, the whole Album is just amazing,
1:41 the melody you’re thinking of is Points of Authority by Linkin Park.
really cool that poppy is making these kind of music among us
Poppy would like this reaction
u see bog, 'they' is the opps
The song you're thinking of is Points of Authority. At least that's how it sounds to me.
Sounds like Hole to me
I was pleasantly surprised with this whole album. 👍🏻 Surviving on defiance stood out to me the most first listen.
idk why but when i heard the song negative spaces i had to go listen to mcfly's ultraviolet for the first time since i was 12 i cant tell why specifically that song but yeah haha
Went from being negativity flabbergasted at VAN to enjoy this album. What an arc! 🤘🏽
Poppy has my attention
That melody on cost of giving up didnt realize til u vocalized it sounds like "you love the things I say I do" melody from old lp
The cost of giving up is my fav track on album
I just wanted to mention her actual singing and screams make this stand out no mention of that in this reaction a cool review though.
I thought I was not gonna like this. But seems like I wasn't familiar enough with her game. Sounds great for so many different reasons and I'm sure Poppy will be that first step to metal for so many people.

this album is damn good!
This album is a total 360 from her past stuff ! Her musicians are great
Srsly, my favorite tracks from this album, it's “negative space” & “crystallized” :D
same!
i love it. fresh and heavy AF
Never given Poppy a chance until now - It's a solid album for sure, but I feel like I'm just listening to Jordan's music at this point
Vital is such a fantastic song
i love how some of the poppier tracks sound very magdalena bay which is one of my favourite artists outside of metal. this album is very generic but happens to hit all the right notes for me personally
The song 'vital' sounds like a Dayseeker song tbh (and it's a good thing), maybe you meant this in your reaction
Album is fun tbh. Love majority of the songs after a few listens
It was more appealing to me than i expected, nothing to write home with, but there's nothing wrong with that if it's got the feeling of passion in it
01:40 yes you've heard it in Points of Authority by Linkin Park
The melody you recognized is Linkin Park - Points of Authority
1:41 - nirvana
This is one of the best metal albums of the year perioddd

Actually love this album lmao
my theory for this album is that it is poppy satirising metal/metalcore, much like her initial eras were a satirical of pop.
The negative spaces actual track chorus reminds me of a song so bad and its driving me crazy! The wah ohh... wtf is that song
You should listen to Convictions album before the end of the year. Its a real banger.

The Beginning of Nothing by Poppy sounds like a slower version of Devourist by Headcave and I can’t take that out of my head lol😂

It’s like Girls Not Grey mashed in with Celebrity Skin by Hole

Some of these songs sound like if Olivia Rodrigo was to get a bit metalcore. Some songs are just not for me but it's definitely a decent album regardless.
A much balanced take than most out there claiming it to be AOTY 😂.

Some of these songs remind me a lot of some older Electric Callboy and Against The Current

I don´t understand why every song is like oh I have listen before, Slipknot here somewhere else there. Why can´t someone listen to an album and just listen to it without mention there was something before. I think Poppy is just a very good musician. Maybe have listen herself to so many songs that bring her ideas for her own. But didn´t think about who had done before because she creat her own. And don´t think about if someone like it or not.
Poppy eat with this album
You should definitely check the band Stick To Your Guns especially the album Diamond
This album is fantastic, especially when compared to the Linkin Park album released on the same day.🤟🖤💯
I really liked the album but the guitar and drum sounds are so generic, if it wasn't for her voice I swear to god I wouldn't be able to recognize what artist this is, it sounds like hundred of other bands.
That’s the problem with basically all of modern metal
@@CrypticlyEncryptedJinjer is a good exception
Same. I do like what Jordan puts in the table production-wise, but is not mind-blowing for exactly those reasons you mentioned. I even feel that the last BMTH album has a way more interesting guitar and drum sound, which is weird considering Jordan actually was pretty involved in that one too.
Will you be reacting to the Architects new single ?
He's probably not going to lol
@matildagreene Why do you think so?
Gaydown
@@fire3005 Cause he moved on from the band apparently, even if For Those That Wish To Exist was one his favourites from the band.
@@MeZame-l2u this, and also Adam is a borderline alt-right transphobic moron
Heyyy Bogdan, why not listen to metalcore classic bands like Darkest Hour or Unearth?
Their best albums are usually some old ones, but both released new album in 2023-2024
Unearth - The Wretched; the Ruinous (2023)
Unearth - Bask in the Blood of Our Demons (EP) (2024)
Darkest Hour - Perpetual | Terminal (2024)
If want to listen to a old iconic albums:
Unearth - The March (2008)
Unearth - The Oncoming Storm (2004)
Darkest Hour - Godless Prophets & The Migrant Flora (2017)
Darkest Hour - Deliver Us (2007)
Darkest Hour - Undoing Ruin (2005)
I just think that in part these bands are less visible compared to As I Lay Dying and Killswitch Engage and I think they deserve more recognition and feedback channels help more than what is more known.
If you don't plan to listen to the new AILD album at least try to listen to a new DH or Unearth album because Boundaries is NOT a substitute for AILD's style AT ALL, because a substitute for an old band can still be an old one.
(Don't get me wrong, Boundaries is fantastic and I've been listening to them since the first album thanks to you and I think we should also make them known but their "old" metalcore style is trying to sound more Hardcore Punk like Knocked Loose does too)
I also miss when you would sometimes listen to older songs/albums and not just from the same year we are on, idk
Watching your videos since 2019 :))
Vital sounds like I Feel Love by Sam Smith
Nothing gives me Sleeping With Sirens vibes
Its interesting cuz of variety but thats also the reason i would never listen to this album from top to botom and why Breakdown of Sanity is my top 3 of all time listened albums.
Discovered poppy back when she released I disagree. I love the weirdness of that album so kinda hoped for it here a bit more (crystallised tickled that itch a bit although I wish the following song was a heavier one like the centre). Such a great album though and surprised me!
1:36 Metric?
That’s what I was thinking too Black Sheep by Metric - between that and Linkin Park
people really love bad omens style
1 dolar for me its 6 moneys units, it's not much, but it's scary
Honestly this album made up for how disappointing the new Linkin Park was
