From KO to Chaos includes seven CDs and one DVD
Iggy and The Stooges are set to release From KO to Chaos on December 18th via MVD Entertainment. The 7 CD + DVD collection features all of the group’s Skydog label releases remastered and presented in a clamshell box — a fitting tribute to the label’s punk pioneer boss Marc Zermati, who passed away in June.
Alongside Metallic KO, the box includes the two Metallic KO source tape gigs, pitch-corrected after a tape speed fault was discovered; two collections of live and studio rare songs; unusual Pop acoustic shows on DVD; a studio acoustic CD and the Stooges long-awaited 2003 live reunion in Tokyo. The 48-page booklet has notes by Paul Trynka — the Iggy Pop Open Up and Bleed biographer and former MOJO editor — with rare and unseen photos.
When the riotous, confrontational “last ever” Iggy & the Stooges gig Metallic KO was issued in 1976 on the French indie Skydog label, it heralded the punk movement and cemented Pop’s position in it. Pop’s career then took off, and a lengthy liaison between Skydog and Iggy Pop continued, with releases through and beyond the Stooges reunion 29 years later.
Zermati started Skydog in 1973, arguably Europe’s first independent rock label, and organized the “First Punk Festival” in Mont de Marsan the same year that Metallic KO was released.
