‘V. A. N.’ (‘Violence Towards Nature’) is a punishing monitor that sees Poppy tackle the persona of a humanoid, as she makes an attempt to interrupt out of a laboratory. “You’ve been operating from me, the digital second coming / And I’m right here whether or not you prefer it or not”, Poppy intones menacingly.
Frontman Noah Sebastien says in regards to the monitor: “That’s a track that began simply with the hook ‘Violence in opposition to nature’, after which after saving the mission with the acronym and seeing it we realized it might be enjoyable to consider ‘VAN’ as a reputation. Thus the rabbit gap of
concepts started that led us to resolve to write down lyrics from the angle of a man-made intelligence gone rogue.”
The track can be the primary teaser to the band’s forthcoming mission ‘CONCRETE FOREVER’, also called ‘CONCRETE JUNGLE OST’. The mission will probably be an “experimental extension’ of their 2022 LP ‘THE DEATH OF PEACE OF MIND’, in addition to the soundtrack to their comedian e book universe ‘Concrete Jungle’.

“Releasing a track that was written to poke enjoyable at how simple it’s to make radio rock, that’s now primary on the radio rock charts, is essentially the most ironic, full-circle second this band will in all probability ever have.”
NME additionally caught up with Poppy about her new LP ‘Zig’, which got here out October final 12 months. She spoke in regards to the significance of thriller in her music: “I choose to let folks interpret them. I really feel like they alter that means over time and generally it’s a little bit bit too private – not with ‘Motorcycle’, that one’s not as shut [to me]. However I really feel like generally it will get a little bit bit washed out in the event you over-explain what a track is about to you. As a result of as soon as it’s on the market, it belongs to them, whoever they’re.”
