Empty Hands LP

Poppy made her first mark through uncanny-valley web videos before swerving hard into metal-leaning rock for Sumerian Records, a pivot strange enough that it still earned her a Grammy nomination for Best Metal Performance. Empty Hands rides that same swerve, opening into the industrial churn of Guardian and Eat the Hate before easing into a quieter title track to close it out. This Record Store Day Black Friday exclusive isn't the album's vinyl debut, it's a new metallic blue variant of a record already out on wax.
