There’s so much good music out in the ether that sometimes it’s difficult to parse through all of it. Every week The Daily Music Report will do the hard work for you and highlight the best releases available on streaming services.
This week we’re highlighting new music from Wallice, Flat Party, and Poppy.
Wallice – The Jester
Wallice’s The Jester captures the chaos, pain, and bittersweet beauty of growing up through a genre-blending journey that mixes tender acoustics, shimmering electronic beats, and big rock anthems. Collaborating with David Marinelli and Mikey Freedom Hart, Wallice explores themes of self-discovery, imperfection, and resilience with heartfelt, metaphor-rich lyrics. Tracks like the immersive opener ‘The Opener’ and the upbeat ‘Gut Punch Love’ highlight her ability to balance humor, melancholy, and defiance. Closing with the reflective ‘Curtains To Close,’ the album solidifies Wallice as a defining Gen Z voice, offering an authentic and deeply relatable soundtrack to life’s complexities.
Standout Songs: ‘The Opener,’ ‘Gut Punch Love,’ ‘I Want You Yesterday,’ ‘Clown Like Me,’ ‘Manipulate,’ ‘Sickness,’ and ‘Deadbeat.’

Flat Party – It’s All Been Done Before EP
Flat Party’s second EP, It’s All Been Done Before, builds on their self-titled debut with a sharper, more distinct sound that blends indie-rock and art-pop with theatrical flair. Across six tracks, the band showcases dynamic shifts, Bowie-esque vocals, and genre-spanning influences. Highlights include the grandiose opener ‘Circle,’ the anxiety-charged ‘Paranoia/Delicate Dawn,’ and the ‘Shotgun,’ an 80s synth-pop anthem with post-punk rhythms. The EP culminates in the title track’s jazzy piano outro, tying together its ambitious themes.
Standout Songs: ‘Circle,’ ‘Paranoia/Delicate Dawn,’ ‘Shotgun,’ ‘It’s All Been Done Before.’

Poppy – Negative Spaces
Poppy’s Negative Spaces is a genre-defying statement that blends hyper-pop, synth-pop, and modern technical metal into a bold and cinematic concept album. Released via Sumerian Records, the LP pays homage to the collapsing boundaries of pop and metal, showcasing Poppy’s evolution from her pop origins into an experimental and ultra-modern artist. Tracks like ‘they’re all around us’ and ‘the center’s falling out’ deliver djent-inspired intensity, while ‘crystallised’ and ‘surviving on defiance’ balance softer, hyper-pop textures with heavy guitars. With its razor-sharp production, ambitious fusions, and fearless confidence, Negative Spaces stands as an accessible artifact of the post-genre digital era.
Standout Songs: ‘the cost of giving up,’ ‘vital,’ ‘nothing,’ ‘negative spaces,’ and ‘new way out.’
