Single Premiere: Populuxe Share their Latest Art Pop Track “Nowhere Left To Go”

Brooklyn quintet Populuxe are often labeled with a term that can include so many things: art pop.

The term is a loosely defined style of pop music influenced by art theories as well as ideas from other art mediums, such as fashion, fine art, cinema, and avant-garde literature.

As far as modern (rock) music goes, that can cover such a wide ground, and in the case of Populuxe, it certainly does. After all, the term “Populuxe” was coined to denote the demand for inventive design between the end of WWII and the assassination of Kennedy.

The band itself started out as a trio back in 1995, and so far their music has covered the wide ground of sophisticated pop from Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd to prime ’70s David Bowie, then to power pop and elsewhere.

Preparing to release their new, sixth album Uneasy Listening, Rob Shapiro and the rest of the band are now premiering their latest single “Nowhere Left To Go.”

A slow-burning melody unveils layers of intricate details in a song the band describe as “a post-pandemic, post-parental death record of accounts, artifice, surrender, and eternity. With a couple of good jokes.”
