Poppy — Moriah Pereira — launched her public persona in 2015 through a series of unsettling YouTube videos in which she played a blank-faced character engaging in repetitive, surreal performances that attracted significant online attention by being impossible to categorize as either art project or commercial music product. The ambiguity was the point: her subsequent music releases occupied that same uncanny space, moving through pop and electropop before her 2020 album I Disagree made a decisive pivot into industrial metal and hard rock — heavy guitars, aggressive production, and a presentation that maintained the uncanny detachment of her earlier persona while operating in a genre where that approach was genuinely new.

Her subsequent releases have maintained that heavy direction, and her live show has evolved to match — a metal performance with the visual theatricality of a pop spectacle and the genuine heaviness of a metal band delivering their music at full force. The Constantly Nowhere Tour with LANDMVRKS and Thousand Below assembles a bill that represents multiple current directions within heavy and alternative music, with Poppy's unique position at the intersection of viral art project and genuine heavy metal act at the center of it.
