Untouchable rock beast IGGY POP launched his new – 19th – LP,
named EVERY LOSER two weeks ago. I’m sure the Pop-fanatics know
all songs by heart by now.
To keep the momentum going his label released the sinewy track
ALL THE WAY as a single now and introduced it with this fitting
Iggy visualizer.
His new – 19th – LP, named EVERY LOSER is today.
It follows his acclamaid 2019 album Free.
Lots of star collaborators joined Pop in the studio, such as Blink-182’s
Travis Barker, Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Chad Smith, Guns N’ Roses’ Duff McKagan,
Pearl Jam’s Stone Gossard, Jane’s Addiction’s Dave Navarro, and also the late Taylor Hawkins, it became one of his last recordings
NME: “The Godfather of Punk stages a raucous return to his roots. Iggy is as feral – and furious – as we’ve heard him in years. An album that, even when it’s lyrically sincere, self-deprecating, or acutely aware, manages to stay larger than life. ‘Every Loser’ is a present-day primal punk resurrection from the only musician qualified to make one. “4/5.
TUTV: Unlike NME I only hear 4 filthy punk-Pop missiles (Frenzy, Modern Day Ripoff,
All The Way Down and Neo Punk) out of the total of 11 tracks. In between 3 semi-rockers (Strung Out Johnny / Comments / The Regency), 2 ballads (New Atlantis / Morning Show)
and 2 otiose interludes make for a sonically unbalanced longplayer altogether. 7.5/10.
It feels like taking a hot/cold/lukwarem/hot/cold shower and therefore my ears/mind/body got confused. So I changed the order of the tracklist – from hot to medium to cold – and deleted the 2 interludes. Bingo, Every Loser sounds so much better. You should try it too.
No retirement for the 75-year-old Punkfather.

After the filthy punk-fueled lead single Frenzy, Iggy
calms down for moody gem STRUNG OUT JOE.

A couple of weeks ago we got that first smashing single
called FRENZY. A motherfucker of a metal punk torpedo.
Hallelujah!
I’m in a frenzy
Fucking prick
I’m in a frenzy
Goddamn dick
