Video: Iggy Pop, Josh Homme and Matt Helders have formed a supergroup

Iggy, you legend

This is a collaboration we’re excited about.

Iggy Pop, Josh Homme and Arctic Monkeys’ Matt Helders have recorded an album together.

The rockers have teamed up to make ‘Post Pop Depression’ – due to be released in March – recorded in secret over a year ago between Josh’s two studios in Los Angeles, Joshua Tree and Pink Duck in Los Angeles.

The tracks are influenced by Iggy’s solo album ‘Lust for Life’, produced by the late David Bowie in 1977.

The band played a debut performance on The Late Show hosted by Stephen Colbert.

Explaining the influence of the album on their new music, Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh said: “Where those records pointed, it stopped … But without copying it, that direction actually goes for miles. And when you keep going for miles you can’t see these two records any more.”
