Track is second single from forthcoming Every Loser album
Fresh off the heels of announcing the highly anticipated forthcoming record Every Loser and single “Frenzy,” which recently debuted on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, Iggy Pop has unleashed a second track to whet our collective appetites called ”Strung Out Johnny.”
Along with the new single, Pop has also confirmed four new live dates spanning the west coast. Kicking off in Los Angeles on April 20th, the Godfather of Punk’s raw power will be in full force as he performs tracks off his impending 19th solo album.
These limited dates include stops at Los Angeles’ Regent Theater and Hollywood Palladium, San Francisco’s Masonic Theater, and Las Vegas’ The Pearl, and will mark the epic debut of Iggy Pop & The Losers, featuring Andrew Watt, Chad Smith and Duff McKagan.
Pre-sales begin Tuesday, December 13th at 10 am PT, with general on–sale beginning Friday, December 16th at 10 am PT.
Every Loser is due January 6th and is the first to be released via the recently announced 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.
Featuring a murderers’ row of modern day rock icons including the Iggy Pop & The Losers lineup of Watt, McKagan and Smith, Every Loser sets Iggy’s lyrical aggressions toward physical and existential nemeses atop a rock solid foundation provided by members of Blink 182 (Travis Barker), Foo Fighters (Taylor Hawkins), Guns N’ Roses (Duff McKagan), Jane’s Addiction (Chris Chaney, Dave Navarro, Eric Avery), Pearl Jam (Josh Klinghoffer, Stone Gossard) and Red Hot Chili Peppers (Klinghoffer, Chad Smith). The result is 11 songs by the man who refused to go gently into that good night on Free, and is once again charging fearlessly at life itself on the project.
The new album will also be available as limited edition vinyl, cassette and CD. As part of the release, Pop is offering an exclusive relaunch of legendary fanzine, Punk Magazine, from founder and legendary editor John Holstrom with a full Iggy issue, which contains an exclusive interview with Iggy by Flea. Iggy originally graced the cover of the John Holstrom Fanzine in July 1976.
