"I feel like I'm closing up after this", says 68-year-old Iggy Pop of "Post Pop Depression", his collaboration album with Queens Of The Stone Age’s Josh Homme, Arctic Monkeys drummer Matt Helders and multi-instrumentalist Dean Fertita. Does that mean it’s his last ever release? Well... probably not. But almost certainly, this album marks the closing of the last great chapter in Iggy’s musical life – The Stooges, "The Idiot", "Lust For Life", "The Passenger" and some of the most iconic performances in rock history – as we know it. Iggy Pop sought out Homme after the two met awkwardly at the Kerrang! Awards some years ago, thinking he’d be a good writing partner and vibesman for his last roll of the dice. The two swapped notes over email for months (poetry, rock war stories, punk rock, garage rock, demos...), before Iggy turned up unannounced on Homme’s lawn, jumped in his car and drove to Rancho De La Luna studio deep in the Californian desert. There, the two aimed to make something brilliant out of nothing, with the depth of Iggy’s Bowie-produced 1977 proto-punk classics "The Idiot" and "Lust For Life", the sonic textures of QOTSA’s "Like Clockwork" and the best backing band America could offer in 2016.

"skull ring" is the fourteenth studio album by rock singer Iggy Pop, released in November 2003. Every track on the album features guest performers. The performers are The Stooges, The Trolls, Green Day, Sum 41 and Peaches. The performers on most of the tracks on the album are The Trolls, Iggy's band from the Beat 'Em Up era. Members of his original band The Stooges also appear on some of the tracks. Iggy Pop used to be the one guy I always thought was the definition of "punk rock" - before the Ramones, Iggy had the Stooges. Before GG Allin cut himself up on stage, Iggy had already stopped doing that, realizing just how fucking stupid it was. When there was the watered-down "punk explosion" in the mid-nineties, Iggy went the opposite direction entirely, ending up on the highly punk rock Adventures of Pete and Pete. Basically, the guy's been around for ages [and somehow still isn't dead], he's seen and done it all and then some. So how does he plan out his comeback?
Like a punk rock Santana, it seems.
If you don't know yet, collaborations between Iggy and others abound on this album. 6 songs feature Iggy's normal touring band, the Trolls, providing the backbeat. While none of these songs are amazing, they help the album come around and get focused after the many side-tracking collaborations. But the real fun [or pain] starts when the "stars" contribute to the disc. Iggy and the Stooges reunite for 4 songs here, and they have no bite whatsoever. The songs are sloppy, too lo-fi for their own good, and just sound like bad seventies hard rock [complete with wanky guitar noises]. Modern punks Green Day [and their bastard children Sum 41 each work with Iggy on the disc. "Private Hell" is classic Green Day, Nimrod era [sounding eeriely akin to "Hitchin' A Ride". Green Day's second contribution, "Supermarket," totally rips. Iggy's vocals work really well with Mike Dirnt's solid bassline and Billie Joe's killer hook. Sum 41's "Little Know It All" is the single, and as much as critics like to hate on Sum 41 for whatever reason, I have no problems admitting that I enjoy this song - as a Sum 41 song, that is. It just seems downright silly to have Iggy singing lead to skatepunk as simple as this. Even he sounds bored. Amazingly, Pop's best work on the disc is "Rock Show," a collaboration with electroclasher Peaches. As they bellow in tandem "Rock show / you came to fear it / you came to sear it / you came to do it all," one must notice the fire present in Iggy's voice, a fire that has been missing for the majority of the album. The last time I heard this guy sing this angrily was when he caterwauled "manuscript replica" for At The Drive-In three years ago. There isn't much bite here; there barely is any bark. Iggy tries to upgrade his image via others' coattails, and it just doesn't work on here. It's too artsy to be pop, and it's too pop to be taken seriously. Better luck next time, Iggy.

"American Caesar" is a 1993 album by Iggy Pop. After the success of Brick by Brick,
Pop opted to continue with that album's lyrical themes while toughening
up the musical foundation. Consequently, the album is often considered
one of his stronger 90's albums. The cover of the UK
edition contained the following text: "Parental Warning: this is an
Iggy Pop record". Videos were made for "Wild America" and "Beside you".
Other notable moments on the album include "Highway Song" and an
ambitious cover of the 60s standard "Louie Louie" (made famous by The Kingsmen) for which Iggy wrote his very own set of humorous, politically fueled lyrics. It was later used during the opening credits of Michael Moore's Capitalism: A Love Story. The first single from the album, "Wild America", reached number 25 on
Modern rock tracks. The album was not as commercially successful as its
predecessor, but it did fare well in the UK and sold well throughout the 90s in America and most of IGGY POP fans think this is his best album ever. MASTERPIECE

Before you lay down good money for "Instinct", go see His Igness in the flesh. In recent shows, he's dropped the stylish art punk of "blah blah blah..." and regressed to good old Stooges nyah nyah nyah, twisting and bawling with genuine animal madness and chowing down on old bones like "I Wanna Be Your Dog" with renewed relish. As good as "Instinct" is — it's as close as the drug-free 80s Iggy has come to revving up the vintage violence — it isn't
quite good enough. There's too much bash and not enough slash in Bill
Laswell's kill-joy production; he turns the brass-knuckle guitar of
ex-Sex Pistol Steve Jones into a standard heavy-metal roar. Iggy, if
anything, is heavy "mental" - as shown by the frayed rhythms, sawtoothed distortion and lupine howling of Funhouse and Raw Power - and subterranean lovesick blues like "High on You" and "Tuff Baby" could use the extra crackle that they get onstage. Brief, this is not the typical Iggy Pop album in the sense of garage rock and punk rock influences, but rather an album closer to rhythm'n'blues, hard rock and even maybe heavy metal album. But despite all, the recording is good and well done (*Review from HERE ).

No... you are not wrong, you see the right "Lust for life" cover but not the official in the western world, but the soviet USSR cover design and artwork of 1977. After The Stooges disbanded this is the second solo release and his second collaboration with David Bowie, following "The idiot" earlier in the year. As well as achieving critical success, it was Pop's most commercially popular album to date, and remains his only Gold-certified release in the UK. Musically is good but neither surprises nor experimentations, this is pure garage rock with punk influences. Simple, raw and direct. Nothing more.
