Après is the sixteenth studio album by American rock singer Iggy Pop.

Background

Consisting partly of covers sung in French,[1] it was released on 9 May 2012 on Thousand Mile Inc[2] after the album was rejected by Virgin EMI Records. Pop said his record company would have 'preferred that I do a rock album with popular punks' and that "They didn't think they would make any money, they didn't think my fans would like it - very sensible attitudes for a sensible sort of person - but that's a different sort of person than I am."[3]

The album has been described as containing ″crooning vocals, Cole Porter covers, soft melodies, and an all-around sense of everything suave″.[4]

When asked by Bill Flanagan if he had heard any good records lately, Bob Dylan mentioned Après.[5]

The cover photo is referring to the figure La Conscience played by Iggy Pop in the French movie L'Étoile du jour (Morning Star) by Sophie Blondy.
