Post pop depression

"Iggy Pop's newest, which he co-wrote and recorded with Queens of the Stone Age's Josh Homme, recaptures the avant-rock frisson of his early collaborations with David Bowie".

"Post Pop Depression arrived two months after Bowie's death, and was completed before his health problems became common knowledge. More than anything, though, this music evokes the sound and feel of Pop's first two solo albums ... It confirms that Pop has never lost the ability to surprise and upend expectations. In the bitter rant that closes "Paraguay," Pop declares he wants to run away and live as "your basic clod." It's an ironic thought, closing an album that once again proves Pop never was and never will be an ordinary guy".

"... et album, som rent sangskrivningsmæssigt ganske vist hverken rummer en ny The Passenger eller Lust for Life - men som ikke desto mindre præsenterer en vred veteran i fin form, her midt i karrierens efterår".

"Rockens kamikazepilot takker af med manér ... Til at sætte punktum har han allieret sig med et stjernehold bestående af Josh Homme og Dean Fertita, begge fra Queens Of The Stone Age, samt Arctic Monkeys-trommeslageren Matt Helders ... De yngre kræfters storgroovende og savtakkede samspil får det bedste frem i veteranen, der flot balancerer mellem primitiv løssluppenhed og kontrolleret coolness. Både musikalsk og lyrisk skuer han tilbage, særligt mod berlinerårene, uden dog at lyde, som om han forsøger at imitere sit yngre selv. Det hårde liv har sat sine spor og modnet Iggy, hvilket høres i den rustne croonerstemme ... Den senede punk-oldermands mest skarptskårne album i årtier".
