    So I wanna point out that Noah PRODUCED this song. So even if he isn’t there vocally, he’s still there. He doing a bit of Trent Reznor move right now, and showing that Bad Omens is more than just him. The band has talent as a whole.

    Mixed reactions but I thought this song was sick. Love the industrial vibes. Don't care that Noah's not in it. It's a collab and Noah can contribute in other ways. Still very clearly a song made by Bad Omens imo, despite Poppy taking the vocals.

      Yeah exactly!

      Considering Poppy is now the voice of Bad Omens' AI, V.A.N., she will probably have a few more features on their new album.

    Something to say to this is that in a a bit of an older interview noah said that he originally wanted to be a producer and not a singer also for a part of his privacy and i think with the way bad omens fans have been he could'nt be more happy to step into the producer role more.

    While I do wish Noah was on it cause he has one of my favorite singing voices in the industry, mad respect to them taking this route for their first new song in two years. I know Noah does a lot of mixing/synth work as well so Im sure he had a hand in the song in a major but background kinda way. After the last year of people turning on them because of the way Noah has been getting idolized by the fairweather/poser fans who just think hes hot, mad props for this as a concept, because they are more than just him. I agree with Nik, they're a production and vocalist driven band, so even without him the band is still bad omens because hes only part of what identifies their sound.

    If you were to find one of the numerous videos of Noah messing around with his software, you'd realize that the music on this is ALL him. He composes it on his computer. It wouldn't even surprise me if the two major melody lines began as his ideas.
    I think it's safe to say Poppy wrote the lyrics and added her own touches. The band recorded their parts. Using "x" is telling. This implies that this is not one artist's song over the other. It's not "y featuring z" or vice versa.
    If anyone is surprised by this, go back and listen to any interview Noah did over the last few years. When people asked him about collaborations, he'd always say Poppy. This might be a one-off single, but that feels like a waste.
    If they can't manage to squeeze out an EP and then tour together, it would be a hugely missed opportunity. If more music IS the case, I can't imagine they pass up the change for an easy hit by doing a sappy duet piano ballad.
    Noah sees the power of writing pop (Just Pretend began as a joke) and it's very apparent he's good at it. I don't think they're much worried about their cred or clout. It's BS.
    Sell out. Make money. There are so few people that can make a living doing this anymore. Even if there's kicking and screaming, you must accept that you're a rock star. A concept that is nearly extinct.
    I don't mean it in the way that you do drugs and crash your Porsche, but by being able to inspire a million kids to pick up instruments and go start a band. Dude wants his throne. He's got it 😎

      @@joyjoyz778 fair enough. I was making an educated guess, having not seen any credits. I wasn't far off. And of course the visual element. I know that's big for a lot of people, but it's usually the last thing I take into account. I think musicians relate. I want every note of the song absorbed before I even open my eyes to that stuff.
      Not even words. Just the melody lines. Lyrics are dead last on the list. Without a good hook, it doesn't matter what I say. Some find that strange since I sing, but it's all about the compositional aspects. It's about deconstructing the whole, admiring the pieces, before putting it back together. Make a note or two that might be helpful when I'm in the thick of a writing session.
