Where this album fits
- Career context
- Released in 2012, Après marked Iggy Pop's foray into the world of chanson and jazz standards after a long career dominated by punk and rock. This album came after his 2009 release, Préliminaires, which also explored similar musical territory but was more rooted in American influences. At this stage, Pop was embracing a more reflective and subdued approach to his artistry.
