I agree the ones in this song work really well. The transitions also remind me a lot of the I Disagree album, with Concrete, Fill the Crown, and Bite Your Teeth having some pretty interesting heavy-to-pop and vice versa transitions.
@@Hewarya I love Nik's video's and was excited to watch this but he seemed overly critical of this tune. He said nothing was surprising but he literally was surprised and caught off guard by the first scream of the song. To each their own though. I respectfully disagree with him on this one. This song is a banger.
@@snakeeyes9246 I had to look it up, god the first half of november is full. I'm glad it's not only the week before, when both The Browning and Make Them Suffer come out on the 8th (and probably more)
There’s no pleasing the metal community at this point. When it’s proper metalcore, people asking for something different. When it’s weird and different, people saying it’s not proper metal. Hating for absolutely no reason. The song is a banger. Just say that and move on. Ain’t rocket science
literally poppy was a forerunner for experimental metal for a while and it didnt get her jack shit in return, so i understand the mainstream route shes taking this time. im happy either way i think shes killing it and negative spaces will be amazing.
This song may even be generally safe sonically for the metalcore scene. But it's not safe for Poppy. Her career still is 60% based and influenced by pop music bc of that her fan base does like pop music - just like Poppy (New Way Out is very pop influenced). In addition, you have industrial fans, her heavy stuff fans, etc, etc. All of her 6 albums have totally different sounds, and this has created a very diverse set of expectations of the public. I don't think she even cares about pleasing metalheads or anyone, but I don't think this can't be considered "safe" if we think about how amplified her audience is.
I love new way out. What it was missing was her drummer, Ralph Alexander. I hope we don't have Jordan's "machine gun drums" on every track. But yeah, NWO was like Britney x metalcore. Listen to the second verse, total britney spears vibe. It works really well!
tbh that's what i love about poppy fans. everyone has a different favourite song, and they aren't afraid to share their opinions on her music (except the mods on the discord server hah)
The only reason i think she might be playing it safe right now is that shes still not being accepted into the community after all of the "I'm poppy" years. idk. Im super digging it. its still WAY different from pre workformhome era....
Who is not accepting her? I'm confused. Also, what IS playing safe with her? 6th album and 6th time its something very different from everything she has done previously
@@nettlecider we all know there's those gate keepers who will never accept her or give her credibility. Unfortunately they are some of the loudest. I personally don't find it safe. It's fun, it's hard as shit with catchy as hell melody and chorus. But a lot of reactions have called it safe. Idk. I've always dug her so I might not be the best to judge.
I'm hoping the Knocked Loose feature helped to give her some of the acceptance she definitely deserves and has more than earned. Is there any reason other than gatekeepers being shitheads for her to not be accepted? I genuinely don't know and haven't heard of her doing anything reprehensible.
@@chasm9557 not that i know of. maybe some are just to scared to admit they like her. like they are closet fans. but we all have those artists that we will say we dont like, but once we are in out cars alone we all belt out like no one is listening.
@@chasm9557 well if talking 'contraversial' - back in her early youtube days and doing first dabbles in music - her persona was a carbon coppy of Mars Argo, a girl who worked with at the time Poppy's sorta manager guy or smth. Margo felt like her whole image was stolen and that guy was a shady mothaf* himself, but since Poppy left him he got cancelled and she started making music she wants. Also talked about his abuse etc. I know that there are still some people who for some reason consider everything HER fault and not his. Sadly, I think it costed her points for positive exposure in general but this has all been happening pre-metal era. So its weird reading comments about her not being accepted when old fans actuallh see her as finally accepted since her move to heavier stuff
It sounds exactly like a song would sound if it was produced by Jordan Fish of BMTH, and featuring songwriting by Knocked Loose. Pissed Metalcore to its finest.

@@drengoa8435 haha yeah, there’s her RUclips videos, but then if you check out her music, she has gone back and forth between pop and metal quite a bit, starting with a couple of tracks on her Am I A Girl album. Quite a few on I Disagree and her EAT EP. Her cover of Spit is great too!
I love this song. It fucking rules so much. From Poppy's passionate screams to her beautiful singing voice along with those driving guitars and drums. Goddamn. My song of the year by a lot.
Poppy doesn’t give a shit about satisfying the metalheads who complain about everything, she doesn’t commit to any genre and that’s why she’s such an outstanding artist
I’m honestly surprised at how many people think this is her “first metal” song. Has nobody heard her album “I Disagree” that was a big middle finger to everyone who labeled her? Her song “Scary Mask” she collabed on with Fever333 was also HEAVY. Or even her recent song “Spit”. As a huge Poppy guy, y’all have homework to do lmao 😂
Apparently he covered Scary Mask and shit over it (people commented on it). I remember him covering Concrete. Even before then I remember X going around. Not sure why everyone is acting like she only started doing metal.
Ever since she sunk the Titanic Sinclair, Poppy has been poppin' off. I'm really happy for her getting away from that freak show and doing her own thing.
I think her marketing is pretty good by releasing these safer songs that will appeal to a wider audience first. The album will probably have heavier or more experimental sounds in it that may not appeal as much to broader listeners.
i think part of poppys style is abrupt transitions , thats her whole vibe no matter the genre pop , indie , rock , metal , edm , it is just abrupt switch up to anything
Poppy is so mixed i cant say for certain she even has a genre. Afraid of Dying went hard af, and then Play Destroy was like a mix of generic pop with a slap in the face with screams and Metal. And then you have the Girls In Bikinis. I dont know man, Poppy can do anything and it will slap! Flux was a blast of a release aswell!
She's been heavy for a bout 6 months... where ya been bruh... she said in an interview I read not to long ago that she felt like metal was where she belongs...it's her new home...
I'm confidant this internet expert would shit all over Poppy's track "don't go outside". Dude literally caters to 15 year olds that think knocked loose is something amazing and original (and I say this as someone who likes the band).
@@oaktowndimond668AGREE WITH YOU! This man says he wants more “wtf” from Poppy. MORE?! Girl has been doing “wtf” songs for years and he didn’t gave af.
thank you! Idk why he's so negative in this reaction, man calls out people for gatekeeping and lack of acceptance in the metal music industry and then does this.....😕
@@FrogWalrus fair point but you can not like the song without tearing every bit of it apart no? this dude is massively influential in the metal scene, there's not one part of this song he didn't criticize, just seemed overly negative for the sake of it, see how you can give her props, why can't Nik?
Her vocals give me that raw IOWA kind of vibe and the song structure made me think of the new darko album. Those hard cuts from aggressive verse to clean lofi chorus. I dig it
She's been sitting on this album for a little over a year. So these were done BEFORE the features with Bad Omens & Knocked. She said she had switched labels a few times but landed back on Sumeran who also did her last album. I think she's evolved even more since. I'm definitely looking forward to her journey if she stays on this path
I met Poppy at the final show of the Never Find My Place tour, super short interaction but she was super nice. I used to watch her as a kid (I’m a teenager now) and I Disagree the album really helped me through shit and I love seeing her get heavier it’s so sick! So happy she’s getting the recognition she deserves because she’s been through so much to get to this point
This is the first time I've heard the phrase "I need more WTF from poppy." That kind of IS the surprising aspect. Sometimes out of nowhere she'll just do a (relatively) direct song that's not absolutely insane. Which is quite unexpected. When she drops something, you have no idea what it will be like.
To think she started off as a pophead and now she’s come all this way The first time I ever heard of/saw her, it was on a stupid Nickelodeon commercial when I was just a kid, and now it’s this. Bravo I say, bravo
7:18 Give it time, Nik. She's trying to find her footings in the genre. And playing it safe, I think, is the right approach here. These songs of her would be underwhelming if she had already done three metal albums. But she hadn't.
Nik had several wtf reaction moments on this and then complained that he didn't get surprised, idk what his problem is with poppy or maybe hes just having a bad day but he was so overly critical and negative on this one, genuinely made me unsubscribe from both channels, I've been a subscriber since 2018
@@oaktowndimond668bro hates her clearly, he cries about gatekeeping in the community, has he seen how negative his community is??? When he does shit like this no wonder
I love the hard cuts personally I thought it made the intense moments more intense and the feeling of flipping emotions from desperation to anger LOL could just be me though I probably have bad taste
Honestly as someone who has known of Poppy since her very first RUclips days, I fuckin love what she's doing. Going from essentially hosting a horror ARG, to making pop music, to blending metal and pop to fit the brand, to now just being a fully respected and fantastic metalcore vocalist and artist. I'll never understand people's resistance to Poppy, she's doing great stuff and we keep getting great music from her, both her own stuff and features. Some people need to shut up and just enjoy it. Also agree with others on the transitions, Poppy has been doing this for years, look at her song X from all the way back in 2018. It's part of her style in my opinion to just flip with no warning, it always has been. It's like a signature Poppy mark.
I had never heard of Poppy until a couple months ago and I saw her this past weekend at LTL, she's pretty damn good. She joined Spiritbox after her set to do a feature and that was awesome as well. New fan here, first song I heard from her was Violence Against Nature.
I won't actively listen to her myself but no denying her sheer talent and great style of music. Her screaming gives me that Dillinger Escape plan Greg Puciato era...like tearing into you with pure angst.
I feel like she's just trying to make something more mainstream, to get her name out in the metal scene. Which I can respect, as long as her whole catalog isn't super safe.
This is only the beginning of a beautiful metal career..... She is definitely an amazing singer but I'd prefer if she kept getting heavier and heavier. 👏👏👏🖤
I kinda like the harsh transitions and immediate full start to the song, it feels very whiplashy and kind of goes a long with the theme of the song. While it feels very "safe" for metalcore, this is different for her and is definitely her riskiest song. I think she's just starting and and will eventually come into her own vibe for metal. She's being very experimental in terms of dipping into different genres. As she does more stuff in this style, it will evolve. But as for this song, if feels safe yes, but its still very good.
It’s odd because I remember when she did metal songs like “X” she always did harsh transitions. Overtime I noticed them less in her albums. I can’t help but think this is like a callback to those previous songs, just more upgraded sounding wise. :)

The whole ending goes hard af!
Poppy has already done heavy before you guys are just ignorant one of those artists who always tries new things and sounds, she's always been great
I feel like she's just trying to make something more mainstream, to get her name out in the metal scene. Which I can respect, as long as her whole catalog isn't super safe.
I love this song - it's awesome; very catchy!
Fun fact: Suffocate is the reason i started to listen to Knocked loose and watching Nik's videos lol
HELL YEAH 🤘🏻 One of poppys best songs
FINALLY! lol wondering when u were reacting to this 😂
bruh her vocals are so gnarly
How Hard do want this song ?
POPPY : UAGHH !!! 🤘🤣
This song feels like an unreleased hidden track that was made for a Call of Duty zombies map from way back in the day
I love Poppy screams and [BL]EGHs
I hope the safe & Octane path may be her intro into metal. Poppy has turned to the dark side, I LOVE IT!
no surprises
also caught of guard by literally the first second
This is only the beginning of a beautiful metal career..... She is definitely an amazing singer but I'd prefer if she kept getting heavier and heavier. 👏👏👏🖤
Hi! Not sure if you check her out before but she covered and did quite of bit of metal before if you are interested. :)
Banger of a song! Nothing wrong with safe, if she's still exploring the genre
now we just need her to do some hardcore trap / hip-hop and her journey will be truly exceptional
Have you guys listened to spit, it’s a cover poppy made from kitty but omg it’s so good
ngl I love the transitions (or lack there of) I think they work really well w the song :] 🤘🏾
Poppy is perfect for me, honestly. Fuckin' weird as hell, that's what I love + she introduced me to Kittie so that's even better.
Poppy has been screaming for many years. She just has so much music it's not easy to find.
I kinda like the harsh transitions and immediate full start to the song, it feels very whiplashy and kind of goes a long with the theme of the song. While it feels very "safe" for metalcore, this is different for her and is definitely her riskiest song. I think she's just starting and and will eventually come into her own vibe for metal. She's being very experimental in terms of dipping into different genres. As she does more stuff in this style, it will evolve. But as for this song, if feels safe yes, but its still very good.
It’s odd because I remember when she did metal songs like “X” she always did harsh transitions. Overtime I noticed them less in her albums. I can’t help but think this is like a callback to those previous songs, just more upgraded sounding wise. :)
