Poppy - Flux / review

Poppy proves to be unstoppable with Flux

Poppy first earned her chops as a performer on YouTube. Now, expanding her craft well beyond the medium, her latest album proves that there’s simply no boxing her in – despite all the attempts by previous collaborators to keep her contained.

Following the heavy I Disagree (2020) and the tireless Eat EP released earlier this year, Flux expands Poppy’s universe by drawing inspiration from '90s alt rock, shoegaze and grunge.

Full review of this superb album over in The Line of Best Fit.

Track of the week: What It Is - Amber Mark

This newsletter might as well be called New Amber Mark Monday at this point. The singles she’s been dropping this year have been some of my favorite music so far. Album is set to drop in early 2022.

Runner-Up: Elevate - Benji.

Benji. is the newest Spillage Village member. He caught my ear with verses on Spilligion last year, particularly his performance on Hapi. His solo debut will be out shortly but until then this should amply suffice.
