Post Pop Depression

Description

22nd album by Iggy Pop First album that Iggy Pop co-produced with the producer, guitarist, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, singer Josh Homme of Queens Of The Stone Age. The two men were involved in shaping the sound of ''Post Pop Depression'', which musically sits somewhere between Detroit, Palm Desert, and Berlin. The result is a timeless work that feels like it has always been known, driven by the raw energy of a newly formed garage band. "I wanted to be free," Iggy explains when talking about the beginnings of his collaboration with Homme, "To be free, I needed to forget. To forget, I needed music. Josh had that in him, so I initiated a meeting, first with a text where I carefully chose the words, then with a deluge of writings about myself. No songwriter wants to compose on emptiness. He started to rev up and we took a good ride at full speed through the desert America." "We explored a territory that neither of us had ever explored," admits Homme. Post Pop Depression is a unique album in the vein of the best created by its makers, from the Stooges to Queens Of The Stone Age, which undeniably possesses their musical DNA without resembling anything they have done before.
