IGGY POP’S NEW ALBUM EVERY LOSER IS DUE OUT JANUARY 6, 2023 VIA ATLANTIC RECORDS X GOLD TOOTH RECORDS
“… he’s back to flat-out, buzz-bombing, hard-riffing rock… Proudly foul-mouthed and convincingly irate, Pop lashes out in all directions, fully aware of his standing”—THE NEW YORK TIMES
“Iggy Pop works himself into a ‘Frenzy’ and reignites some of his proto-punk fire… marks a left turn back toward the Godfather of Punk’s roots” —ROLLING STONE
“… a blistering, unabashed three minutes of skittering rock and roll… it’s always a joy to hear Pop back in peak form.”—FLOOD
With the expansion of the anticipated response to the positive reviews of its single Frenzy and its opening track, it can now be verified that Iggy Pop will launch his new album, EVERY LOSER, come January 6, 2023. Pre-Order and Pre-Save HERE.
Every Loser is Iggy s 19th album and his first to be released through the recently released partnership between Atlantic Records and Gold Tooth Records, the new label founded by the album s GRAMMY Award-winning, multi-platinum executive producer, Andrew Watt.
“I’m the guy with no shirt who rocks; Andrew and Gold Tooth get that, and we made a record together the old-fashioned way,” Iggy said in a recent statement. “The players are guys I’ve known since they were kids and the music will beat the shit out of you.”
Before the release of Frenzy, EVERY LOSER goes back to the irrefutable primal essence of Iggy Pop’s rock and roll whilst concisely maintaining a distinctly lyrical, present-day viewpoint and sonic palette. EVERY LOSER is an outstanding album that consists of very basic rock and roll. It is a revolutionary expression that is guaranteed to flop with unmatched intensity and pristine wit. The result is 11 songs by the man who refused to go gently into that good night on his previous album, 2019’s somber and contemplative Free and is once again charging fearlessly at life itself on EVERY LOSER.
“Iggy Pop is a fucking icon. A true original. The guy invented the stage dive..I still can’t believe he let me make a record with him. I am honored. It doesn’t get cooler. This album was created to be played as loud as your stereo will go…turn it up and hold on…” says Andrew Watt
Iggy Pop and Andrew Watt Team Up For The Cover Art Of Every Loser
The cover of EVERY LOSER are original works of art created by renowned contemporary fine artist Raymond Pettibon. Pettibon burst onto the scene in the later part of the ’70s and made his mark on album covers created by such artists as Sonic Youth and Black Flag.
His signature themes are derived from a range of areas, including literature, art, art history, philosophy, politics, sports, and alternative youth culture. Pettibon’s work has been exhibited widely throughout the US and abroad, including a survey at the New Museum in 2017, as well as the 2007 and 1999 Venice Biennials.
The new album will also be available as limited-edition vinyl, cassettes, and CDs – Available HERE.
As part of the release of EVERY LOSER, Iggy is releasing an exclusive relaunch of the legendary fanzine Punk Magazine, from founder and legendary editor John Holmstrom, with Iggy’s entire exclusive series. Iggy was previously featured on the cover of John Holmstrom’s Fanzine in July 1976.
The Legend That Is Iggy Pop
Iggy Pop is widely renowned as one of the most influential artists and dynamic live performers of all time. He is a singer, songwriter, musician, author, record producer, DJ, and actor whose body of work has garnered him worldwide acclaim and a fanatical cult following. Beginning in 1967 with his era-defining group The Stooges, Pop merged primal rock, blues, and free jazz into something altogether dangerous and new, paving the way for punk, post-punk, hard rock, and grunge. His landmark solo career – which kicked off with 1977’s David Bowie-produced The Idiot and Lust For Life – has seen Pop traverse a stunning span of musical genres, inspiring generation after generation of rock ‘n rollers with his iconoclastic songcraft, uncompromising performance style, and one-of-a-kind charisma. Perhaps the greatest living embodiment of rock & roll, Pop has never slowed down, pushing the art form forward for more than half a century, including his most recent full-length recording, 2019’s contemplative, critically acclaimed Free.
A Peek Into Andrew Watt’s Background
Andrew Watt’s diverse array of credits includes work with Justin Bieber, Post Malone, Elton John, Ed Sheeran, Miley Cyrus, Dua Lipa, Ozzy Osbourne, and more. In 2021 he was honored with the GRAMMY® Award for Producer of the Year, Non-Classical, and recently produced Ozzy Osbourne’s #1 Billboard Chart-topping album Patient Number 9, as well as the single “Hold Me Closer,” the highly anticipated hit collaboration by Britney Spears and Elton John. At the top of 2022, Watt produced the entirety of Eddie Vedder’s critically acclaimed solo release Earthling, and in February, he landed two genre-bending hits on the Hot 100 in The Kid LAROI’s “Thousand Miles” and Ed Sheeran and Lil Baby’s “2step.” Beyond his producing and songwriting, Watt had the honor of joining Eddie Vedder on tour as part of his all-star side project, The Earthlings.
