Hot Milk have announced their sophomore album Corporation P.O.P is set for release on June 27th 2025 with the rebel-rowsing single "90 Seconds To Midnight," with a video featuring British legend Frank Skinner out now. The album was written and recorded both in their Salford flat and a live room in LA, producing songs that capture that live energy they are known for, with new tracks are poised for stages the world over.
Corporation P.O.P, produced by Jim Shaw, Zach Jones and KJ Strock, offers the band at their heaviest with their raw, unapologetic lyrics which brim with unfiltered emotion. The record serves as part social commentary, showing the darker side to the world which they found themselves surrounded by when writing the record, all the while keeping their light, mocking humour throughout.
"Corporation P.O.P is a flurry of thoughts, feelings, ramblings from the afters n questions about where we’re at right now in England, the further western world and emotionally. It is an entry from the perspective of us lot who live a dichotomy of months in faraway lands and then experience the sudden grounding of returning home to Salford. It’s hard not to compare, contrast and try to understand. P.O.P = Payment of Pain. We all must live with the burden of modernity and this pain has been commodified; we all must pay. Corporation pop itself is a term Hans grandad used to refer to the water supply, something that runs throughout all our homes, just as current events run through us all." Says Jim Shaw.
Not saying we have the answers but the conversation should ALWAYS be open, bring logic and evidence, and everyone should be able to change their mind, we are never finished articles. In a time where the doomsday clock ticks closer and warfare looms, it seems prudent to look introspectively into the human condition and attempt to understand the bigger picture to find a solution. The truth about ourselves can lie somewhere in between, and the imperfections can be difficult to accept for some.
Violence through expression, warfare through persuasion and I will cause irritation through takin the piss n goin slightly above my station. Fuck it, that’s where the fun lies. It doesn’t always need to be said with a straight face.

"We wanted to bring it home on this record, shooting videos/photos in our backyards and out and about in Salford. This is about us, so visually it should be about us too. Written in northern Hollywood and a bedroom in Salford opposite an Aldi, this is a true juxtaposition of an album." says Han Mee
