Post Pop Depression Late Show with Stephen Colbert

IGGY POP POST POP DEPRESSION LIMITED RUN OF ONE-TIME-ONLY LIVE DATES ANNOUNCED TICKETS ON SALE TO THE PUBLIC JANUARY 29 ALBUM OUT MARCH 18 “BREAK INTO YOUR HEART” AND “GARDENIA” BOTH AVAILABLE INSTANTLY WITH PRE-ORDERS LATE SHOW WITH STEPHEN COLBERT WEB EXCLUSIVE PERFORMANCE HERE “Post Pop Depression... picks up where Lust for Life left off… The lyrics reflect on memories, hint at characters and offer advice and confessions; they can be hard-nosed, remorseful, flippant, combative or philosophical.”—THE NEW YORK TIMES “A slice of stratospheric punk-funk”—ROLLING STONE “‘Gardenia’ has the same sort of mean, skeletal, machinelike groove that so many of those great old Iggy songs had… over this sort of spartan groove, he sounds awesome.”—STEREOGUM “Iggy in finer form than ever and Homme’s distinctive driving guitar melodies firmly anchoring his florid vocals. Basically: it’s shit hot stuff and this album cannot come soon enough”—NOISEY “Pop gave the song a relatively restrained and poignant performance. The single, from his wonderfully titled new album Post Pop Depression,’ continues the bleak, grooving moods from his great David Bowie collaborations, and it's perhaps his catchiest new tune in a generation.”—THE LOS ANGELES TIMES “Glorious… ’Gardenia’ itself feels like a callback to the glory days of new wave, with Iggy’s trademark low voice channeling the spirit of his dearly departed friend David Bowie. Homme provides backing vocals and typically excellent guitar work.”—PASTE Its existence having been revealed to the world via a one-two punch of an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and exclusive profile in The New York Times, it can now be announced that Iggy Pop’s new album Post Pop Depression (Rekords Rekords/Loma Vista/Caroline International) will be supported by a very limited run of one-time-only live performances in specially selected venues. The Post Pop Depression tour will mark the sole occasion that the album lineup of Iggy, producer/guitarist/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist/bandleader Joshua Homme, Homme’s Queens Of The Stone Age bandmate and Dead Weather-man Dean Fertita and Arctic Monkeys drummer Matt Helders— augmented by QOTSA multi-instrumentalist Troy Van Leeuwen and journeyman guitarist/bassist Matt Sweeney—will perform this material, as well as classics spanning Iggy’s legendary solo career, in a live setting. Tickets for the North American leg of Iggy’s Post Pop Depression tour will be on sale to the general publicJanuary 30, with pre-sales commencing January 28. Tickets for the European leg will be on sale beginningJanuary 29. In the wake of the Late Show debut and release of first single "Gardenia" and the Post Pop Depressionpre-order going live, a second advance track "Break Into Your Heart" has been premiered. Both tracks will be delivered instantly with pre-order from iTunes or on vinyl. Iggy and the band’s web exclusive performance of "Break Into Your Heart" previously witnessed only by the Late Show studio audience has also been unveiled HERE. Post Pop Depression is equal parts a dream come true for co-creator Homme as it is a record that defiantly takes its place in Iggy’s storied discography alongside the twin towers of The Idiot and Lust For Life--two records and the mythic Berlin era of their creation canonized as much lyrically ("German Days") as sonically ("Sunday") on this new record. The album is a singular work that bears its creators’ undeniable sonic DNA while sounding like nothing they’ve done before. It’s a record that wouldn’t exist without either Pop or Homme--and one that probably shouldn’t in theory if you really think about it--but it does, and we and rock ‘n’ roll are all the better for it.
