Iggy Pop shares James Bond from new album Free

A second track has been lifted from the new Iggy Pop album Free, out on September 6th.

James Bond offer a glimpse into a record which Iggy has said is a direct reaction to 2016’s Post Pop Depression. “This is an album in which other artists speak for me, but I lend my voice,” Iggy explains.

“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.”
