GRIMES MAGAZINE - APRIL - ISSUE 36 Iggy Pop has shared a new film capturing an exclusive in-depth conversation with fellow icon Flea – Watch HERE. Directed by Emmy and GRAMMY® Award-winning filmmaker Thom Zimny (Bruce Springsteen, Willie Nelson & Family, Johnny Cash), the intimate “Bitten By Flea!” sees the two Rock and Roll Hall of Famers exploring a wide range of subjects including Iggy’s storied career leading into the critically acclaimed 19th solo album, EVERY LOSER. The documentary also features exclusive, behind the scenes footage of Iggy, Flea and the album’s GRAMMY Award-winning, multi-platinum executive producer, Andrew Watt, in the studio.

Hailed by Stereogum as “his most immediate, straightforward, energetic record in years,” EVERY LOSER sets Iggy’s signature lyrical aggressions atop a rock solid foundation provided by a murderers’ row of modern day rock legends including the recently unveiled Iggy Pop & The Losers lineup of Andrew Watt, Duff McKagan (Guns N’ Roses) and Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Josh Klinghoffer and Chad Smith, as well as blink-182’s Travis Barker, Foo Fighters’ Taylor Hawkins, Pearl Jam’s Stone Gossard, and Jane’s Addiction’s Dave Navarro, Chris Chaney, and Eric Avery.

Iggy’s first release via Atlantic Records/Gold Tooth Records, EVERY LOSER has been met by ecstatic acclaim from media outlets around the globe, including Rolling Stone, Esquire, Pitchfork, NME, The Guardian, and the New York Times, which applauded the album for its “buzz-bombing, hard-riffing rock.”

Among the 11-track collection’s many highlights are such supercharged songs as “Frenzy“ and “Strung Out Johnny.”

Iggy further marked the arrival of EVERY LOSER by teaming with PUNK Magazine founder and editor John Holmstrom for an exclusive relaunch of the legendary zine (first graced by an Iggy Pop cover appearance in July 1976). The all-new issue of PUNK is fully focused on the Godfather of Punk’s one-of-akind life and career.

Iggy Pop & The Losers made their high-profile televised debut earlier this year with an electrifying performance of the feverish “Frenzy” on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!, streaming now HERE. The band’s raw power will next be in full force on a series of hugely anticipated live dates, set to kick off April 20 at The Regent, Los Angeles followed by Apr 22 The Masonic, San Francisco, April 24 The Orpheum, Los Angeles, Apr 27 The Palladium, Los Angeles and Apr 29 The Pearl, Las Vegas.
