Poppy has announced her new album ‘Negative Spaces’, and has shared the heavy new single ‘They’re All Around Us’ – find out all the details below.
‘Negative Spaces’ will mark Poppy’s sixth studio album and the follow up to her most recent effort, last year’s ‘Zig’. ‘Negative Spaces’ is due for release on November 15 via Sumerian Records and is now available for pre-order and pre-saving on digital streaming platforms.
The forthcoming album is previewed by the brutal new single, ‘They’re All Around Us’. Like the album, the heavy new tune is co-produced by former Bring Me The Horizon keyboardist and percussionist Jordan Fish.

Per a press release, ‘Negative Spaces’ will feature a myriad of genres including “delicately-delivered pop”, “’80s retro-futurism” and “’00s pop-punk”. It has also been confirmed that Poppy’s most recent single ‘New Way Out’ will be included in the album.
A tracklist for ‘Negative Spaces’ has yet to be shared.

Speaking to NME upon the release of ‘New Way Out’ earlier this year, Poppy reflected on ‘Zig’ and looked forward to future releases: “The mission for that album was to make a dance-inspired piece, but for this project, the goal is to bring a new level of intensity to my music. It feels like a good time for it as well, because there’s a lot of tension out there.”
She also teased what her new material might sound like: “I knew before I even started ‘Zig’ that I wanted to explore this kind of music and address those emotions afterwards. I’m always after an emotional swing really. If I go one way, I need to run in the opposite direction afterwards, because it’s all about balance. I view projects as rollercoaster rides; they should vary. But this is where we begin.”
Prior to the announcement of ‘Negative Spaces’ and the release of ‘New Way Out’, Poppy collaborated with Knocked Loose for ‘Suffocate’.
