3.2 good | Erwann S. STAFF | January 16th 23 | Papa Pop with a not-so-bad album in the 2010s? Goodness gracious. It's got a certain Bowie knack coupled with Homme tones. It ain't 100% Iggy Pop, but it's still his best "recent" record.

3.5 great | Grungil | February 5th 21 | Iggy decides to get serious again after many many years of goofiness, and with a big help from Josh Homme and the Artic Monkeys guys, he releases his best album since Blah Blah.
Too bad Bowie wasnt around to personally congratulate him..

4.0 excellent | MeetMeAtBarItalia | July 3rd 16 | I am not familiar with Iggy Pop's discography outside of his couple of classic 1977 records, but as a big fan of QotSA, I try to listen to most of Homme's projects. His guitar playing on this is exceptional as is his production, which has a nearly flawless mixture of grit and sharpness. Dean Fertita's bass is also exquisite, while Matt Helders' drumming do the job well enough. Iggy's blunt lyrics are usually moving - apart from his ridiculous rant on "Paraguay" - and his delivery nothing short of exciting. Cuts like "American Valhalla", "Sunday" and "Chocolate Drops" are emotive and well-structured, whereas more straightforward rock songs like the two openers really keep the relatively short album moving forward. A deeply satisfying record, even if it is Iggy's swan song ; I would even say that as a reflection on death, it is a solid counterpoint to Bowie's Blackstar, trading experimentation for simplicity, with equally somber results.
