As they charge into 2026, New York experimental alt-pop outfit Tripping Jupiter return with ‘This Fuss’, a vibrant and politically charged single that signals a new creative surge. Following October’s ‘Crack That Drum’, the band waste no time reigniting momentum, delivering a bold slice of alternative pop that fuses slick, synth-driven production with sharp-eyed social commentary…
The song has an anthemic and sweeping pop rock sound that evokes massive acts like The Killers or Kings of Leonbut with a distinctly David Bowie flair, with bass playing done by frequent Bowie collaborator and legendary session musician Gail Ann Dorsey, who appears on several tracks on the forthcoming Tripping Jupiter album.
New York’s Tripping Jupiter are back — glitter, grit, and all. On October 17, the glam-pop visionaries return with “Crack That Drum,” their first release since the award-winning debut Lipstick of the Brave, and a thunderous reminder that dancing can still be a revolutionary act.
Revolutionary new musical artist Tripping Jupiter is not looking to be defined by you. They are not interested in fitting into a binary gender picture. They are, by their own definition, “beyond the binary.”
Likewise, they are not looking to be neatly defined by a musical style either. They create a ”transcendent view of art and of music and present it without societal restrictions or self-imposed limits.
