Advantages: Rocks on full of power and enthusiasm with witty lyrics

Disadvantages: Lyrics might be a bit repetitive

Skull Ring is one of the best Iggy Pop albums in my opinion. It's amazing to think how old he was, when this album was made and to put so much energy and power into it is simply phenomenal. Every song on the album just bombs along with raw power! Superbabe (of which the chorus which changes each time is incredibly catchy), Motor Inn, Little Electric Chair and Nervous Exhaustion are just legendary anthems. This is probably Iggy's heaviest album ever and he pulls it off easily, some of the songs don't have the same effect live as on the album, they definitely did a good job on the recording of the songs.

If you just want one Iggy Pop album, I would choose this or Raw Power everytime but this shouldn't undermine his other albums which are also great fun and quite often groundbreaking material (less so now perhaps)

Summary: Buy and rock the night away!
