Single arrives as she announces her upcoming LP, Zig, out Oct. 27
Poppy doesn’t want any fake love. On Wednesday, the musician released her dark pop single “Knockoff,” along with the announcement that she’ll be releasing her LP Zig on Oct. 27.
The Le3ay-directed video splices clips of her in a skin-tone color leotard engaging in choreography surrounded by dancers with an image of her staring into a giant red orb that by the end of the video transforms into a large, blood-looking splatter.
Poppy recorded the song with producers Ali Payami and Simon Wilcox, and it features Nineties industrial elements and riffs off her previous rock sound with a dark electronic twist.
The album announcement arrives just a month before she’s set to hit the road for a co-headlining tour with Pvris. She’ll begin her tour in Seattle on Aug. 18 before making her way to cities such as Los Angeles, Denver, and Houston.
