IGGY POP announces new album - Free - shares title track: Stream

19 July 2019

IGGY POP has announced a new album titled, Free. The follow-up to 2016’s blockbuster hit Post Pop Depression arrives on September 6th via Loma Vista.

In anticipation, he’s dropped the album’s jazzy title track.

At only a little over a minute, the track reveals a smoother side to the weathered rocker, but that’s the point. As the album’s press release notes, Free is a “uniquely somber and contemplative entry.” Or rather, as POP has stated, “This is an album in which other artists speak for me, but I lend my voice.”

He went on to clarify that comment:

“By the end of the tours following Post Pop Depression, I felt sure that I had rid myself of the problem of chronic insecurity that had dogged my life and career for too long. But I also felt drained. And I felt like I wanted to put on shades, turn my back, and walk away. I wanted to be free. I know that’s an illusion, and that freedom is only something you feel, but I have lived my life thus far in the belief that that feeling is all that is worth pursuing; all that you need – not happiness or love necessarily, but the feeling of being free. So this album just kind of happened to me, and I let it happen.”
