An interesting review: Nu-metal and bubble-gum persona give you - Poppy

"Rock isn’t dead, but its function has changed... Now on the back-step, from pop to hip-hop it’s deployed in a similarly equivocal way: just another palette to be painted with" - the Quietus says in a great analysis of new album by the American alter-pop singer Poppy 'I Disagree'. She uses elements of nu-metal on her album, without becoming a metalhead - "Counterpoint is at the core of Poppy’s appeal: here she roles out her bubble-gum persona, and she shoots her with metal, power electronics and rage". A short and sweet read.
